The Icelanders were the only nation to "vote" to convert to Christianity in the year 1000 (possibly 999). It was decided by the Thing that all outward practices of Heathenism would be stopped, but what happened behind closed doors would stay there. The banning of eating horse meat happened after that, in an effort to stamp out Heathenism, which the Icelanders officially weren't anymore.
Most cultures which raised cattle rarely ever ate them. They used them for milk for the most part. They're relatively difficult animals to tend, and take a great deal of time and effort to raise. No point in wasting an animal by actually eating it.

Was also used to make cheese. I was under the impression that they had them for the milk and cheese, and if they got old (or stopped giving milk, or gave sour milk)or the were running low on food/money they'd kill one/some.

Pretty much. Or eat excess calves. They're just to terribly expensive to raise to actually eat on a consistent basis. Only when they were good for nothing else or you were forced to. And even then, eating healthy cattle was something that was hard to bring yourself to do (For instance, the only remaining animals in the Viking Greenland colonies were feral hunting dogs and cattle). They were a very prized commodity that most back then would scoff at us for eating in the quantities we do.

I've had pet rabbits and guinea pigs before, but I'd still jump at the chance to have a rabbit pie or a guinea pig casserole, as I've not tried either animal before.
