Also, I didn't look into any detail about the UFO catcher thing you mentioned as well, but in Japan there is a common brand of instant noodles that comes in a Styrofoam bowl with it's own strainer (to pour out the hot water used to "cook" the noodles) that has UFO written on them in big letters. Like these http://page3.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/c246685195
Ah, well I know for a fact that the UFO soup and the UFO catcher have nothing to do with each other. The UFO Catcher is one of those grab prize game things, and the ration is a prize for said machine.
Why do you think you can't import horse meat? There's no real law against it that I'm aware of. It's just something we don't eat, not that we couldn't. We anthropomorphize our animals too much. We eat pig, and they're as smart as dogs, horses don't have any more going on upstairs, they're just prettier.
