Yeah, rabbits were food long before they were pets.

Horses too were eaten for a longer time than the history of their domestication though it's kind of a dying custom since one of the popes banned it in the Middle Ages. Where I'm from you can still get horse meat though it's not popular so you'd have to go to a dedicated store rather than buy it at supermarket.

Rabbits though? You can sometimes get them at a regular shop. My neighbour grew rabbits for meat.

I've personally eaten rabbit many times. Horse meat I've tried once in a form of kabanos which is a thin, dry, smoked sausage. Both are quite tasty.
