There is always someone with their snouts in the trough and some of us wonder how far up the chain all this goes. If all honesty was given to the problem and whatever investigations take place, there should be prosecutions and some sentencing coming along this year, but will this total fraud be taken seriously or only a rap on the knuckles being given at the end of it all. |

| The main problem with these 'investigations' is that they will be conducted by other snouts, or someone appointed by the snouts themselves. A scapegoat will be decided on beforehand, tacky 'evidence' put in place and the rest....is history.

| There is also the sudden upturn in the amount of money going into the local butchers shops. I wonder if this helps the economy? I wonder, might be a clever plan after all. But then think again about the poor people that could not afford to buy real meat, that now have to pay out more to live, stretching already tight budgets. |

| Nothing wrong with a bit of horse, we use to eat a lot of it in the old days back in blighty but they stopped selling it for some reason, I know horse lovers won't be happy about it but it is one of the beeter and healthier meats. |

| [size=150:32dewg16] Horsemeat scandal: Withdrawn products and test resultsThe discovery of horsemeat in beef products has led to a range of processed foods being withdrawn from sale across Europe. Retailers and suppliers have been conducting tests to try to determine to what extent, if any, horsemeat is contained in their products labelled as beef. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) says 5,430 tests have been carried out in the UK so far, with 44 tests showing the presence of horsemeat. As products were tested multiple times, the 44 positive results relate to 17 different products, including Findus beef lasagne, which yielded at least 15 positive results. This table is being updated as results emerge. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] |
