I was absolutely gobsmacked to see that Findus products contained horse rather than beef. I'd always assumed it was dog.

    Exactly, if you're going to spend £1.60 on a 360g lasagne, you should think yourself lucky that its got horse in it !

    I nearly got ripped off buying cheese - someone had tried to mask a pony. :lol:

    Lance Armstrong is now backtracking very quickly. Now he claims he never intentionally took horse steroids, he ate a Findus Lasagne.

    Funnily enough yes, I do have pan in my dinner!!! I've just made myself some stir fry and I found little flakes of teflon in it. Tomorrow I'll let you know if I'm still alive.

    As for horse in Findus food, it wont harm you so as long as it tastes nice why is it a problem?

    2 reasons. Firstly the drugs that vets are allowed to give to animals destined for human consumption are tightly controlled, where they are not for other animals. So what's to say that one of those horses wasn't given some seriously strong sedative or other drug just before being minced and added to pasta?

    Secondly if you buy a "Beef Lasagna" you expect it to contain - let me think - beef. Had I bought a "Horse Lasagna" then I wouldn't complain. If you buy a petrol car and find it has a Diesel engine would you not complain?

    It occured to me earlier that LASAGNE is an anagram of NAG SALE.

    After that it didn't take me long to work out that:
