Horsemeat

Still glad I'm a vegetarian.
I love horses :( I even have a horse tattoo on my thigh.

I would not want to eat horse.

Apparantly they've withdrawn all the Veggie Burgers too, traces of Uniquorn found!

Horse meat found in Tesco's Burgers, what next, my Lidl Pony?

Lol at the "Oakhurst" burgers which are evidently the same burgers as Tesco Value in a fancy box.

100% Beef apparently..... :D :D :D

It doesn't say 100% Beef.
 
I was in Tesco the other day browsing the frozen meat section and noticed a Cowboy talking rather softly to the burgers!

People were looking at him strange so I went and asked

"What you doing mate?"

and his reply was

"Howdy pardner, I am a Horse Whisperer!"
 
I'm happy to eat horse, its a shame you can't really buy it over here.


Also from wiki: "Horse meat is the culinary name for meat cut from a horse" :rolleyes:
 
- Aside from Horse DNA, there are traces found from other animals, such as Pigs. This represents an issue for people who can't eat such meats for religious reasons.

Cant see this being a big issue, i dont believe these products to be either Halal or Kosher, or advertised as such. This would negate the danger of anyone, Muslim or Jewish eating meat which according to their religion is unclean.
 
Yes, it's that time of the evening children..!

This caught my eye;

"Horsemeat accounted for approximately 29% of the meat content in one sample from Tesco."

My question is this: has anyone noticed horsemeat listed in the ingredients listed for meat products they've ever bought?

Do you mind eating horse?

Does anyone know which bits of the horse go in? :p

That's why you should buy Halal **TrollFace.jpg** :D
 
I've never tried horse meat, but I'd like to. Hopefully it's better than kangaroo, which was pretty disappointing (although I've only had it once, so could have been bad quality, badly cooked or whatever). However, as others have said, I'd like to be confident that any supplier, let alone a huge one like Tesco, knows what goes into their food.

Presumably Tesco and others had vetted the processing plant but the plant was getting meat from dodgy continental European suppliers.

Well they can't really claim to have a thorough vetting process if this is the case. I'm guessing such a process should involve more than asking the plant if all the meat is what they say it is...

Some of the puns in here are shocking by the way :D
