''The FSAI said the meat came from two processing plants in Ireland - Silvercrest Foods in County Monaghan and Liffey Meats in County Cavan - and the Dalepak Hambleton plant in Yorkshire, England.''

it was a tongue in cheek remark, I actually think the whole thing is a disgrace, my brother is a farmer in Ireland and the hoops he has to jump to courtesy of Brussels simply to rear beef cows is ridiculous. There is a tremendous amount of red tape, every calf has an ear tag and a number and is traced from the day it is born, if a calf is born dead then an even more ridiculous amount of red tape has to be waded though, so I as a consumer would like to know where exactly the system is breaking down, and where Brussels who are telling us what shape vegetables we can eat back off and let the companies put whatever **** they like into our food. Its no problem to eat horse meat as long as you know you are eating it, what other hidden gems are we eating with no knowledge?

[Livia]

I'm a little shocked that people have accepted this so lightly. Seems they can sell us anything... tell us it's one thing when it's actually another... fill food with horsemeat when it's advertised as beef. What next? It says tuna, but it's actually dolphin... but at least it's funny.

[lostalex]

Why do Europeans like eating horses so much? I don't get it.

In America the horse is considered a working animal. And people make connections with them, the idea of eating horse meat is like eating a dog in America.

But I guess Europeans think eating alligator or raccoon meat is gross. Must be a cultural difference.

personally I only eat birds and fish. I don't eat anything with 4 legs. I appreciate land animals. I only eat animals from the sky or from the sea. i don't like to eat animals that walk on land.
