"horse fat" news and stories

I know some people love it and others think it sounds pretty horrible, but personally I've always been a big fan of regular Poutine - crispy french fries smothered in gravy with cheese curds throughout. But this? Well, I have no idea what to even categorize this under exactly - food porn, perhaps? Maybe food oddities? Regardless, this is definitely something that you just don't see everyday.

Rob at Hungry In Hogtown has created his own version of Foie Gras Poutine with Horse Fat Fries, based on a recipe from Montreal-based restaurant Au Pied de Cochon, which features a veal demi-glace, artisanal sheep's milk cheese for his fresh cheese curds, seared foie gras, and his (soon to be infamous?) horse fat fries. Rich and decadent? Definitely. Controversial? Absolutely. But it certainly ranks as the most unique recipe I have seen on the web all week. Maybe even all month.
