So, there has been a lot of bad press bout horse meat
turning up in processed meats.
Major supermarket chains have been pulling
products off the shelves before you can say jockey. Now an internationally
known brand has also been affected too. Birdseye, the frozen food company has
pulled its ready meals from supermarket freezers.
Now I don’t have an issue with eating animals that are bread
for the table. But horses are another kettle of fish…or should I say stable of …well…horses.
Animals bred for the table have to meet specific standards in terms of
chemicals that can be ingested and clear hygiene regulations have to be met all
the way through the process. But who knows if any such regulations were
observed...
Now hot on the heels of that is a report in the local paper
tonight about a couple having a romantic dinner. Partway through the salad the remains
of a dead bird was discovered.
So guess who won’t be purchasing any processed meat dishes
or pre prepared salads.
Not that I buy that type of convenience food anyway
