It is disgusting, I agree. But that does not exclude the need for certain products. Kosher butchering hangs an animal up and slits its throat, but still people buy the meat and eat it. I think it is better for a product to be used thriftily than to be discarded because the way it died was objectionable. Just my opinion. I do not feed my dogs raw horsemeat.
