Not sure what the problem is with eating horse meat - maybe we should run a gallop poll to gauge opinion?
I think meat eaters are being a bit blinkered about this burger revelation, I bet all these burger jokes fall at the first hurdle.
If I spent a pony on it I would think it a trap - but I suppose all this is just shutting the stable door
Why are we all weighing in with these jokes... making complete asses of ourselves... i guess we are all jockeying for a laugh...
Mrs H is always nagging me to try horsemeat. She suggests cooking it in a pie, balled up in small portions and flavoured with bay leaves.
I would tackle her if I were you Theo...... She needs reining in Tesco burgers may be fine but send her to My Lidl Pony...... Hold tigh..... they're off
Morning all, overnight we had some showers of something, but with the shutters firmly pulled in I don't know if it was rain, sleet or snow. The sun is out now, but it was only showing 4C when I went on the bread run. (Actually drive) As I was going along I thought how the countryside in Winter has changed. In my youth fields were ploughed and the soil left to be broken down by the weather. Today a crop is harvested and within a week something else sown, so the fields that were brown for several months are all now green.
You guys are well ahead of the field as this article would suggest. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-21011778 Nay, nay and thrice nay......
Shergar's Bum - anagram of Shamburgers.. On a serious note, there is a public health issue here and I suspect there will be some horrors stories coming out
Not sure about that as horse meat has been eaten by the Bosch for centuries and they're ok aren't they? This is more about misleading the public and conning those who frequent the Tesco value range. I don't like Tesco one bit so it pleases me to see that what goes around comes around. From now on Tesco will be synonymous with the horse burger, lets call it burgergate....
Glad to see this article in the Watford Observer. http://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sport/10165235.Terry_Challis_to_have_road_named_after_him/ This newspaper has now been told by Watford Council that "the Post Office has confirmed that Challis will be used as a road/block name for a development around the Vicarage Road Football Stadium". What development is planned round the ground now?
I think you will find it is the Irish who will end up coming badly out of this as it seems as if most of the contamination originated there - and there are many more supermarkets than Tesco who have been duped. I suspect some less than honest people have supplied the meat trade in Ireland with cheap horse meat when they were supposed to have supplied beef. However many on the Continent eat horse meat by choice so I guess that it will not be a public health issue
Yes it brought a smile to my face.... reminded me of my last few months at fawlty towers..... the screen was on.... but not on my work!
