Horse is a delicacy in some parts of Germany. My friend's dad used to love
it.

Bear in mind that there were no horses in the Americas from about 7000 BC  
until the 16th century, so this wasn't a staple of the historical native  
American diet.   It does illustrate, however, that man is an opportunistic  
hunter, and will eat whatever he can catch, if he's hungry.
