So, you all take exception when you read the ingredient list and the first item is "meat like product"? Where's your sense of adventure?

Alligator? Seems OK to me as long as I dont have to catch it.
However in US I would rather have a steak as it is where I have always managed to get good steaks. Just dont eat steak in Spain unless you want gristle and poor steak.


Really good steak here too JK, makes up for the beer!
Happy to buy the one way ticket and fund myself until I die as long as you arrange the residents permit.
Just tell me when and I'll do it.

According to the news, UK is now having issues with spaghetti sauce. Or should we just call it "horsey sauce" from now on. Seems some sauces have tested to be 60 percent horse meat.

Earlier today, I put the package of ground beef (?) back in the freezer I had put out to defrost for supper and got out a piece of salmon instead. Looks like real salmon anyway.
:rofl:

Really does make me stand back and shake my head in disbelief. There just doesn't seem to be anything one can trust anymore where money is involved. The further away from our food source, the more difficult it is to be confident in what we are putting in our mouths.

Wonder if my neighbors would be upset if I raised a cow in the yard? Just thinking out load here.
:sssshh:

Actually, when I was young in the early 1950's my father was stationed in France and we lived on an active farm. The owner and his family used to invite me for meals once a week or so and I remember having a very tasty piece of meat for supper one night. I was told it was horse meat. I thought it was very nice at the time.

In the interest of "world peace", I am proposing introduction of a new breed of food product. It will be called the cow horse. Should make everyone pleased to eat a meat product again.

I'm really a lover of a fine steak,but have my protein intake reduced from kidney disease so I miss them very much. But the absolute best I have ever had,and I have had a Kobe Steak which is SUPPOSED to be the very best,was in South Africa and it was from Zimbabwe.Superb steak. If you are upset about being served Horse meat you should come here to the US of A. They even get upset here when they kill wild horses for export for human consumption and even take a big exception to using it in dog food. A horse is in a special category here.

thats the problem ken ,the majority of us brits feel exactly the same way.a horse is a pet animal these days .not part of the food chain .what we going to have next ,badger and fox meat from the proposed culls .and we appear to have a weak insipid gov. that would rather sit in parliment and log on to sex sites about extra marital affairs than deal with the real problems facing our country .

perhaps the expression gone to the dogs is coming true ,we will probably be eating them next :sick::sick:

I had a Kobe steak in the restaurant in Philadelphia and it was top quality. Dont know where it came from but it was definitely beef and I assumed that it was USA grown!

Argentina is also meant to produce very high quality meat.
