Burger King admits..... burgers and Whoppers contaning horse meat

[Britton30]

Burger King has tonight admitted that it has been selling burgers and Whoppers containing horsemeat despite two weeks of denials.
The fast food chain, which has more than 500 UK outlets, had earlier given a series of ‘absolute assurances’ that its products were not involved.
However, new tests have revealed these guarantees were incorrect in a revelation that threatens to destroy the trust of customers.

I think the real revelation is that they actually contained meat, I'll bet McD's ain't DNA testing their burgers.

flogging a dead horse. literally.

I've just read they've sent the veggie burgers for test to see if they contain uniquorn.

glad we dont eat this crap.

I did try one once, no wonder it gave me the trotts.

i think its quite funny that the overpriced burgers at burger king are really the same as tesco value burgers .

i make my own burgers with real mince and i add finely chopped onions and chillies.
the kids love them and hate bk,mackys etc.
i guess we're also lucky that we live in pasty land where the pasty is the first choice in fast food.

The Aldi horse burgers were nice, but I prefer My Lidl Pony.

It was all a misunderstanding

"BK, is there horse meat in your burgers?"

"Neigh"

The more they are testing the more horse meat they are finding, most supermarket shelves are completely empty of any form of cheap processed meal that is said to have contained "beef" and even mainstream brands like findus lasagne containing 99% horse.

TBH the only problem I see is the false advertisement, but the real thing that is puzzling me is where have all these horses come from and what's happening with all the cows

...and all the King's horses couldn't feed all the King's men to put Corporate America's Ethical Standards back together again....

we had a similar convo at the meal table earlier,
tesco have a large sign outside the shop blaming the supplier etc, and promising that from now on they are introducing DNA testing on their meats,
and that they wont be using the supplier again, ever!, they didnt mind profiting from a cheap supply for goodness knows however long.
i tend to avoid cheap processed meats as they are crap, so im not too upset about it, i would be if horse had been my staple diet for a while.

Is it weird that I'm completely okay with this? when it comes to meat I'm really not to picky. I'm not trying to say that BK didn't have false advertising or that they aren't trying to cut costs by using something other than beef but I really don't have much of a problem with eating it even if it was made from Beaver and before any one asks Yes I have eaten beaver.

 

[z3r010]

Yes I have eaten beaver.

I must say it's a favorite of mine

 

[Dsprague]

I put it up there with squirrel pie, or one of my favorites deer kidney

 

[Northernsoul55]

I must admit also..... i am partial to a bit of Beaver! :roflmao:

there's an idea for a new badge. "Beaver Eater"
