Donkey meat in UK burgers?


Just when the British thought it couldn't get any worse in the recent scandal of horsemeat masquerading as beef in various food items available in major UK supermarkets, it now seems that Romanian donkey meat has been found in burgers in England, Sweden and France!


"Preliminary investigation by the French agency that combats consumer fraud had uncovered the Byzantine route taken by the “fake” beef. It came from abattoirs in Romania through a dealer in Cyprus working through another dealer in Holland to a meat plant in the south of France which sold it to a French-owned factory in Luxembourg which made it into frozen meals sold in supermarkets in 16 countries."  Oh boy!
