Well they say that horse is/was a delicacy in France, so I'm sure it's delicious, under the right conditions. For dogfood I'm sure they use the cheapest skankiest meat they can find, so no matter if it's an aged horse or decrepit milk cow or worn-out greyhound, it'll all probably taste gross. But a young healthy horse, calf or puppy will surely be tender and tasty.
Ostrich is fantastic. Venison can be done very well or not so well, it's almost hit-or-miss with that gamey metallic tang, it can be a subtle richness or overpowering and unpleasant.
Tracking down the kangaroo, I saw Rocky Mountain Oysters for the first time. Sheep have really large balls. Just under the white skin you can make out the spirally tubelles, made me a little queasy. It is, however, a challenge, so I'll have to try them someday. I hear they're usually buttermilk battered and deep fried.
