Literally less deadly?

[Swatopluk]

It tends to be hypertrophic on the bad and lean on the good side once certain people get hold of it.

Trading in cows sounds medieval to me.

I am sure more cows than horses get traded these days since the former get eaten at a higher rate.

Even with the horsemeat scandal in Europe, the proportions has to be 10000:1 if not one or two orders of magnitude higher.

A diet was a formal deliberative assembly. It is most memorable for the Edict of Worms (Wormser Edikt), which addressed Martin Luther and the effects of the Protestant Reformation. It was conducted from 28 January to 25 May 1521, with Emperor Charles V presiding.

According to wiki:

The term (also in the nutritional sense) is derived from Medieval Latin dieta, meaning both "parliamentary assembly" and "daily food allowance", from earlier Latin diaeta transcribing Classical Greek δίαιτα diaita, meaning "way of living", and hence also "diet", "regular (daily) work".

Through a false etymology, reflected in the spelling change replacing ae by e, the word came to be associated with Latin dies, "day". The word came to be used in the sense of "an assembly" because of its use for the work of an assembly meeting on a daily basis, and hence for the assembly itself. The association with dies is reflected in the German language use of Tagung (meeting) and -tag (not only meaning "day", as in Montag—i.e. Monday—but also "parliament", "council", or other law-deliberating chamber, as in Bundestag or Reichstag).
