    I've had a Horse steak-hash before in 'la belle france'. Not too dissimilar from beef tbh. Just a bit richer and leaner, bit like venison. Very nice.

    To me the whole story is all wrong. The fact that it is horsemeat should be the side-story in a food production/cross contamination public health concern.

    People getting hysterical over eating Horse need to take a long hard look at themselves next time they eat a cow.

    I think the substance of the issue is copulating with horses rather than cows. Not eating them - that would be rather perverse don't you think. Well actually you have made it plain what you think.

    A cow walks into a bar. Barman says 'why the long face?'
    Cow says 'Bloody, illegal ingredients, coming over here stealing our jobs!




    Someone better test the tiger bread! It could contain leopard.

    Since Tesco has taken all the burgers of the shelves, why not try their meat balls. I have heard that they are the Dog's Bollocks!
    I have only two things to say to that; Bo***cks

    Load of comedians! very good - seriously though, don't see the problem with this. They talk about contamination, why? just different meat. I'd be more worried about all the other crap in them.

    Just been to Tesco and bought a bottle of Bacardi, a bottle of Lamb's and some burgers.


    So that's white rum, dark rum and Red Rum.

    I thought "Blimey, there was horse meat in those burgers !" - thank christ, I didn't think there was any nutrition at all in them until I heard that.
    We used to call the dodgy burgers bought from a little road side van in Hailsham 'Dog Burgers'. I wonder if this has changed at all.
