The presence of horsemeat in value beefburgers has caused a furore. But what is usually in the patties?
It has been a sobering week for fans of the beefburger.
Tesco have used full-page adverts in national newspapers to apologise for selling burgers in the UK that were found to contain 29% horsemeat. Traces of horse DNA were also detected by the Food Standards Agency of Ireland in products sold by Iceland, Lidl, Aldi and Dunnes.
But a beefburger rarely contains 100% beef.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has two classifications for burger products - standard and economy.

Own burgers that you made yourself, it tastes best.
