JohnC Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Six French supermarket chains - Carrefour, Monoprix, Auchan, Casino, Cora and Picard - have also withdrawn ready-meals made by Findus and Comigel.

And guess who owns the Big C chain here in Thailand? - Casino! Be careful what you buy! Tesco UK and Burger king UK also sold horse meat, and are now apologizing and saying "they didn't know". I don't really understand the commotion, if it is meat going through the regular channels there is nothing wrong with it. When I was younger there were special butcher shops for horses and they only sold horse meat related products, it was normal. Nothing wrong with it, and it tasted good. It never gave me the trots....

transam Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 (edited) why all the fuss? not uncommon.... the French and Belgians have been eating horses for a long long time..... Because the package doesn't state ''Mmmmmmmmmmmmm Horse Burgers'' or''Race Horse Pie'' or ''Donkey Curry''. PS. Was joking about the Donkey but just read it's true.

bannork Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 When I was a nipper, mother would buy dog biscuits for our hounds as a treat; but sadly they only ever saw half their portions as I would liberate approx 50%. They were very tasty and composed of horse meat. I still remember our dogs' sad eyes looking up at me, quizzically cocking their heads, their eyes moved from the packet to my mouth and back again. Still I got the bad karma in the end when my teeth fell out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the issue is little Sally at the Pony Club having a breakdown over eating 'trigger'...whom she had just sold to a kindly old man in a white coat the week before....and she just come back from macDonalds.
