Ok, I've tried not to post this several times, but I just can't help it:
From the BBC: Horse meat found in salami
<SIZE size="100">Salami on sale in the UK could contain horse and donkey meat, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) has revealed.
</SIZE> <SIZE size="100">Local authorities in Hull, Durham, Northumberland, North Yorkshire and West Yorkshire tested 24 salamis. Three of the samples were found to contain horse meat - but none of them declared it in the list of ingredients.</SIZE>
<SIZE size="100">
</SIZE><SIZE size="100">Rosemary Hignett, the FSA's head of food labelling, said: "There are concerns that UK consumers could unwittingly be eating horse and perhaps donkey meat when they buy salami or a similar product. </SIZE>
<SIZE size="100">"Some people may prefer not to eat these products, even though food safety is not the issue and they are often traditional recipes."
It's the last part that makes me laugh: Yes, Rosemary Hignett, Food Labeller Extraordinaire, some people may prefer not to eat horse and/or donkey with their sandwiches. People are just strange that way.
