We should be buying up all this Horse food on the cheap and dishing it out to the convicts

"turn... liberal"?
I cherish that thought KeithB. I have been told, more often than I have put a fiver on a horse, that Hitler was a vegetarian...might I be doing something right?

I find it ironic that for the past few years hundreds of billions have been spent here in the UK in an attempt to avert catastrophic climate change and yet this scandal has been going on for years and years but government departments were unaware of the problem.
Perhaps a few more wind farms might help stop the food industry carrying out this sort of stuff.
Just a mad, crazy idea but.............it might just work.

My doctor told me to watch my diet so I've booked some tickets for the Grand National
Seriously though, it's back to the local butchers for me

I don't blame you Collette. I don't trust many foods now that this has made the headlines.
Only the other day a good friend of mine ate a decidedly dodgy meal at a takeaway and developed some serious problems.
I visited him in hospital yesterday but He's now taken a turn for the worse and is in a korma.

It's amazing you know. The food standards agency is the body whose job is to protect us all from all manner of bad things which might affect the food We all eat. It took an Irish version of the same body to discover horse meat in British food. So it appears the FSA have been asleep on the job.
I think I can guess when things started going pear shaped. Perhaps it had something to do with their master's obsession will all things weather related:

Funny isn't it? They can protect us from the climate but don't lift a finger if it means getting out of the office and actually checking the standard of food We eat.

The moral of the story is- if you want to be sure of what you are eating, DON'T EAT PROCESSED FOODS.

Just posted the following on the other thread.
At the moment a French company together with another company it owns in Luxembourg seems to have supplied the meat and the problem could go back as far as August, according to the report on ITV News.
Thank goodness most of my food is home prepared and not out of a packet, it seems you just do not know what is inside the packaged stuff.

The latest from the Findus website. It seems that horse lasagne is still on the menu:

It has to be said that we shouldn't be complacent and think that by not buying processed food everything is fine and dandy.

as we continually find out who would think that an egg could contain salmonella or that beef we were buying direct from the butchers had something potentially deadly inside it.
as yet we do not know the impact that genetically modified crops will have on us.

Hopefully we can now get our own back on the French for their scandalous and illegal ban on British beef after the BSE scandal had been sorted.
The French had at the time a big campaign called 'Viandes Francaises' or VF for short- a bit like our Red Tractor scheme. They withdrew it in a hurry when someone pointed out that VF also stood for Vache Folle - Mad Cow.
