I want to complain about this content:

Routine testing for horsemeat was stopped by the govt of the day in 2003. So really this was a ticking time bomb. What this latest saga has shown is how ignorant the public are as to how food gets from the farm to their plate. If you want to buy a bucket load of "meat" party food for a quid from a supermarket you are not going to get prime meat. Its going to be reclaimed meat bulked out by the cheapest material available. Its all about market forces and the fact that many parents nowadays have lost the ability to cook and rely on processed foods and takeaways instead of cooking from scratch. Which in the long run doesn`t cost that much more. Let`s hope our farmers and butchers benefit from this scare. They could do with a bit of luck for once.
