They might be yummy.
I don't know, but people in Belgium don't seem to have the same problem we have with it. Not the starving, lice ridden, tortured part of it - that's completely inexcusable. But if well cared for, properly fed, then humanely processed -like every other livestock that is packaged in neat little stryofoam containers that none of us give a moments thought to when flung onto the grill... jus' sayin - don't hate |

The hay was @ 24 for the three wire at Belmont this winter. Right now at Finger Lakes the local feed stores are selling at 5.50 for first cutting. If your lucky and know the local farmers you can get it cheaper, or even attend a local auction. Either way it's much more expensive than in recent years. Last time i was at the farm there were @ 300 mouths to feed..Do the math...

A lot of the horses racing at Mountaineer now are supposedly being fed at a cost of $180-to-$200 a month. That figure includes alfalfa, timothy, straw, and feed.

That's what I've heard from trainers racing down there now.
