Horse meat is available in butcher shops and shops specializing in meats but it can sometimes be found in supermarkets, especially in ground form. The most common way to eat horse meat is in sausage form, especially {{Lang|fi|meetwursti}} (''[[Mettwurst]]''), a cured and smoked sausage which often contains pork, beef and horse meat. Finns consume around 400g of horse meat per person per year and the country produces around 300–400 thousand kilograms of meat per year, while importing around 1.5 million kilograms per year from countries like Canada, Mexico or Argentina.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://yle.fi/uutiset/3-10332390|title=Suomalaiset arastelevat ekologista hevosenlihaa – suurin osa hevosista päätyy hautaan, ongelmajätteeseen tai tuhkattaviksi (Finns avoid ecological horse meat - most horses end up buried, as problem waste or cremated)|website=yle.fi|date=August 2, 2018|language=fi}}</ref> No horses are bred for meat production and there are stringent laws against using meat from a horse that has been medicated or injected with antibiotics.
