I hear horse meat is healthier than beef.

Each commercial ground beef meatball or hamburger is likely to contain the meat of many, many animals. The presence of horse meat in ground meat products is less of a health risk than the prevalence of e. coli and salmonella contamination.
Consider seeing the film "Food, Inc." Here are some clips: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqQVll-MP3I / http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Oq24hITFTY / http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3P5tmkjHa8
What makes Swedish meatballs so special is the allspice and nutmeg traditionally used in seasoning them. They are easy to make from scratch -- especially if you bake them on cookie sheets instead of frying them in a skillet. Use the pan drippings to make a brown gravy. For added richness and a bit of tang, you can add sour cream to the gravy. Serve with boiled potatoes, steamed vegetables and lingonberry preserves.
You can trust me on this, I'm Scandinavian through and through -- and attended culinary school there. = )
