And whats wrong with horse meat ??

I'm pretty sure that it looks better on the horse, that and the horse would prefer to keep it as well

Not sure if this is on or off topic:

but theres rumors people taking ketterinmin or something - horse tranqulisres for fun if that helps.

ya can get horses for free in ireland mate
people cant afford to keep them anymore

Pretty much same in the UK. You can pick them up for as little as ?10 in various places so its not really suprising some will end up in the food chain.

the wife has been nagging me to get some of these to try

i wasn't sure though as the last lot gave me the trots.....

so she told me wind my neck in and get down off my high horse, she said you wanted less lip and from me to get my tail down to tesco... i would have but I was knackered.

For most people the issue isnt about eating horse (after all it is just another meat), but being misled into buying something that isnt what it says on the packet. I mean 30% horse meat ffs, its not a trace....

Horse meat firms may face action

The UK's food watchdog is considering whether legal action should be taken against companies at the centre of the scandal over horse meat in beef burgers.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) said they would consult relevant local authorities and the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) over whether to take action against any organisations embroiled in the controversy.

After a meeting with food industry representatives, the FSA said they would continue their review of the traceability of the food products identified in an FSAI survey, which uncovered the scandal.
