Are you sure?

Normally yes. It's chicken/beef "flavour".

Twas a joke, given the article I linked.

It's nice to know what you are eating. I don't have a problem with horse meat but if it had been dog meat that would be different. Yeah I know it's not logical.

The issue is Herbivores and Carnivores, we tend to eat Herbivores, since carnivores could have eated one of us previously/Scavenged.

The opposite is the case for fish.

True, but you can't assume who's educated and who is riff raff.

Omnivore birds too, chickens like insects.

Charming. Not that I'm sure that detailed knowledge of pot noodle ingredients shows good education anyway.

The concern is that, as this horse meat has been introduced illicitly into various suppliers' product, there's no quality/safety guarantee. Because of that, I'd regard with even more suspicion than I would the meat on offer at a dodgy kebab shop.

I'd guess that eating horse that has been raised under guaranteed food-standard conditions, as they do in France, poses little or no problem for a lot of people.

some issue with the potential for phenylbutazone contamination. The company responsible for the current transgression is in France.

This is the real issue; not that it's horse, but that it's horse that has not been considered fit for human consumption.

A detailed knowledge of Pot Noodles does suggest having been a university student at some point. See also Marmite and Sosmix, as anyone who ever watched the execrable late night ITV programme 'Get Stuffed' would remember.

and Sosmix

Literally never heard of this. Ha veggie sausage mix, there's another brand I have tried though.

One thing that hasn't been released is whether any of the horsemeat came from British slaughterhouses.

[WearyRhino]

I do appreciate about the labelling and lack of honesty. I really do. But the outrage seems to be off the scale for just that.

At least Pot Noodle beef is open that it's suitable for vegetarians.

It must be difficult for a Liberal Democrat to fully grasp the importance of something being what it says it is on the tin.

the ready-meals involved were made in France,it seems but yes the horse could have ridden in from anywhere. Poland has been mentioned, I think, not sure.

[Phil]

Just what I wanted to say. I'm quite prepared to eat horse but it's not on sale legitimately.

Likewisem but as my wife pointed out what if those horses that went into these burgers etc had been treated with Phenol Butizone or Ketamine? This is basically about traceability along the food supply chain

[hindle xiii]

What I did wonder the other day was, before this came up, by law there can be so many parts of insects and animal hairs and stuff in food, normal food like peanut butter, etc. I wonder how veggies feel about it and deal with it.

[Hullfan]

Don't c the problem lovely Horse meat
