With all this talk of horse burgers……..I really want to try a proper horse burger…..anywhere I can but a 100% horse burger?

I don’t get it…the last time I checked horse meat wasn’t poisonous or anything…what is all the fuss about?..I heard you can find waaaayyyy worse things in sausages.

I’m surprised they haven’t set up a committee to head an inquiry into why this inquiry didnt go ahead :p

Personally I’d more concerned if pork was found in beef products. Undercooked pork can be lethal, and I’m pretty sure it would put off practicing Jews and Muslims alike.

Having read a newspaper report describing how processed burgers are made I suggest that the presence of equine DNA is the least offensive aspect of these burgers.
Any knowledge of said manufacturing process would put burgers off the menu for most !

Probably going to be a referendum on whether we want horse meat removed from the burgers.

Delayed due to a false start. They received a Tip off.

So what is this mysterious ingredient that nobody is naming? My guess that whatever it is, consumers will be revolted by it even if it was in it’s non-horse meat form. So prepare to be disgusted!

I’m looking forward to Sunday. Roast horse and some beefradish sauce.
I’ll get my pyeballed coat.:)

For the benefit of the user who (a) keeps calling me “Gavin O’Reilly” – remarkably, I DO know how to spell my own name, thanks – and (b) has now posted the same comment on this article three times, I might remind readers that off-topic comments are against our comments policy and are deleted accordingly.

There’s an article over here where the comments in question would be much more appropriate.

Do the politicians not realize that them soapboxing about the issue just keeps the negative media publicity alive

Charge of the light brigade – delayed due to missing steeds !

Checked the use by date on my tesco burgers to day,and

THERE OFF.

Oireachtas talking horse as usual!

the irony is that if 29% of a burger is horsemeat, it’s what the other 71% is that would probably disgust people.

I don’t expect cheap mince contains the sort of beef cuts you’d see on even the most adventurous of butchers tables.

horsemeat is perfectly edible and served in many countries.

They all have the trots !
Talk plenty of it all the time !!

Instead they’re going to have a barbecue.
