      Within hours of the news that Tesco's 'all beef hamburgers'contained 30% horse meat, these quips hit the internet
      “I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse..... I guess Tesco just listened!
      Anyone want a burger from Tesco? Yay or neigh?
      Not entirely sure how Tesco are going to get over this hurdle.
      Waitress in Tesco asked if I wanted anything on my Burger. So I had £5 each way!
      Had some burgers from Tesco for my tea last night...I still have a bit between my teeth.
      A woman has been taken into hospital after eating horse meat burgers from Tesco. Her condition is said to be stable.
      Tesco are now testing all their vegetarian burgers for traces of unicorn
      "I've just checked the Tesco burgers in my freezer...AND THEY'RE OFF"
      Tesco now forced to deny presence of zebra in burgers, as shoppers confusebarcodes for serving suggestions.
      Said to the missus, These Tesco burgers give me the trots....
      "To beef or not to beef, that is equestrian".....
      A cow walks into a bar. Barman says, "Why the long face?"
      Cow says "Illegal ingredients, coming over here stealing our jobs!"
      I hear the smaller version of those Tesco burgers make great horse d'oeuvres.
      These Tesco burger jokes are going on a bit....Talk about flogging a dead horse!
      The End???

        IKEA meatballs contain horse DNA. There's a joke in there somewhere, you'll just have to assemble it yourselves. :heehee:

          To be honest, all this horse-meat and otherwise genetically modified foods nonsense is starting to go a bit too far. I mean, I haven't had any problems with anything I've eaten, even the cheaper cuts.

          Only last night, I had a lovely leg of cod.

              Joking aside, the BBC has published a table of test results showing where we're at with the horse meat fiasco. It seems out of the mainstream supermarkets, only Asda is still backing the gee gees.

                    Have you ever wondered what's really in fish fingers?
