Who cares? Tacos is tacos, and I love me some tacos
Horse - cow - pig - chicken... whatever. Sautee a little onion and pepper to add and you got something delicious to put in a tortilla!

Ok cat you got me with this one i do remember that restaurant and i used to eat there, i'm just not sure what a GSD is???? I always wondered why they went out of business... I think i also remember they got robbed a couple of times. I ate there often enough that depending on what a GSD is i may have eaten it or some of it....

I think it is a horse skull. I compared pictures to my cow skull. The eye sockets don't look quite big enough, the forehead isn't quite as broad, and the nasal bone of the cow skull seems longer than the horse one. The horse skull pictures aren't that great though. :shrug:

hehe nice picsand nice camel cricket!
I HATE them!!
They freak me out. 
They are all over the garage. 
I have no sentimental attachment to horses - meat is meat - but the restaurant should have disclosed. Also, isn't eating or selling or something horse meat illegal in the US?
Even if it was a cow skull, though - um, eww. What kind of restaurant boils up an animal head in their kitchen? You're supposed to get your meat from the meat distributor, not process the damn thing yourself.

I *believe* that horses can be used as meat in the US only at select wholesale dealers. But there's a very limited number of those. Eating horsemeat is very common for many other countries.
Guess it may be like I crave chitlins only cause I can't find them served up here. Something you miss because you can't get it.

hehe nice pics
I thought they were called "cave crickets."
I hate them too! We used to live in VA and the creepy things were all over the place, in the garage on the back porch. EEHHHYUCK!
They can jump clear across the room in one motion. Disgusting!

According to the web site, they go by many names which include both cave and camel.

On May 24, 2007, the last slaughterhouse in the USA producing horsemeat for human consumption was closed by State statute. Recently there have been several state and federal regulatory initiatives in the USA intended to prevent the slaughter of horses for human consumption. On January 27, 2007, simultaneous bills were introduced in the Senate and the House to prohibit the slaughter of horses for human consumption and to ban the transport of live horses from the United States to countries where they could be slaughtered for human consumption. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and the American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) are pursuing defeat of these amendments to the Horse Protection Act .

Thanks for the update. I've not really paid attention to the industry or laws regulating it in years.
