So that's what happened to Shergar. An FSAI reports reveals that what you think are beef burgers are, in some cases, horse burgers - or pig. Maybe it's more EU intergration, those French lads love an aul horse steak.

"In one sample from Tesco, the level of horse DNA indicated that horsemeat accounted for approximately 29% relative to the beef content."

Had a horse burger in Slovenia. Was pretty OK, but smelled fucking awful. Had to brush my teeth with a rotting homeless man to make the smell better.

Yuck. Another good reason to go vegan. You don't know what you are getting in animal products.

Not just Tesco. The makers of the burgers, Liffey Meats and Silvercrest foods supplied Dunnes Stores, Aldi, Lidl, and Iceland also.

On a serious note if they are Irish produced they should be traceable.

Throw a burger in first;)

I'm not sure how they got away with that, don't all food processors have a full trace-ability from farm to fork and all that nonsense and are audited by these companies (tesco, dunnes etc)regularly??

How else would you bind burgers so well!

Thread title is a bit misleading, the article names a number of retailers (including Dunnes, lidl and aldi) that also carry these products. It just so happens that the sample from tesco had the highest horse meat content.

I do. I don't buy cheap supermarket mystery meat.

In other shock horror news - cod not actually cod.

While I agree with you 100%, your argument would have been better made if you had used anyone other than the Daily Mail.

You don't know what you're getting in vegan products either home slice, but it sure as hell is a lot of animals!

Insects mostly.
