Is it just because the cute ones are able to show us affection, or demonstrate some other use to us?

If you really think that then there is something wrong with you.

Horsey, horsey don't you stop,
Or you'll end up in a Tesco shop.
Your tail goes swish and the wheels go round
Giddy up Horsey, you're a quarter pound!

I suspect foal play.

It explains why Tesco burgers always give me the trots. I did switch to Aldi burgers for a while but in the end decided I preferred my Lidl pony.

Register with the Jockey Club. You're now the proud owner of half a racehorse , Flynn.

Despite the recent news, Tesco says that their beef burger sales remain stable."

"So I go to the freezer to get the burgers out....and they're off!"

The wife made Tesco beefburgers for tea last night and asked if I wanted anything on it. I said "A fiver each way".

Although far from funny, some people are using the horse meat story as a source of humour:

I'm off burgers. I'm having filly steak for tea tonight.

Tesco have apologised by taking out full page advertisements in the national press, but I feel they've closed the stable door after the horse has bolted.
