Horsemeat found in beef burgers on sale in UK and Ireland
[Quote]:
Horse DNA has been found in some beef burgers being sold in UK and Irish supermarkets, the Republic of Ireland’s food safety authority (FSAI) has said.
The FSAI said the meat came from two processing plants in Ireland, Liffey Meats and Silvercrest Foods, and the Dalepak Hambleton plant in Yorkshire.
[..]
A total of 27 products were analysed, with 10 of them containing horse DNA and 23 containing pig DNA.
Thing is, there’s probably worse things in the burgers than a little bit of horse, of course. And no one can tell if it’s horse, of course.

This is why I’m a vegetarian – a bit of celery in my tomato soup is not a major problem!
Not following your reasoning here, Spiff. If you’re a vegetarian, isn’t a bit of horse in your tomato soup more of a problem than it is for a meat eater? The whole point here is that you’re served food that isn’t what you expected it to be… happens with vegetarian food tooo. (vegetable soup made with chicken stock, a surprise addition of bacon bits, etc.)
this is why i eat meat exclusively. there’s no way some dickhead is going to sneak a piece of celery into my steak.
Neigh! Stop horsing around and pony up for proper meat! Well said florian!
florian, many animals eat vegetables, you know? Maybe you should consider eating only carnivores.

Finally we’ve got to the bottom of that particular bucket of entrails.
