I heard horse is pretty good. Never had it myself though...guess I need to get to burger king and find out!
If it is common why did they deny it at first and now have to admit it now? Sounds like it should be a non-story then. Weird.
My guess is, horse would be pretty good. They are a grazer and fed grain. To me, it's just about perception. We see horses as pets not livestock, so we don't think it's kosher to eat them. Many cultures do not share the same perspective. However, not disclosing what is in the hamburger to the public is a pretty big deal. Pretty soon it will be rat burgers.
