One thing comes to my mind which so far has not been covered and that is... Fraud. But the media seems to bang on about the horse meat.

Plus of course fraud was covered over here last month when one of the factories unsurprisingly turned out to be run by a fraudster who caused a food scandal back in the '80s.

I tried horse meat (paardenvlees) in Belgium and Holland whilst living over there...as I recall it tasted a little sweeter than beef but the main put off for me was the fact I knew what I was eating.

I'm not bothered about the what kind of meat it is, the media just carps on about its horse meat oh my what the hell is going on..horse meat! And so on, its like the media and the government are making effort to cover up the FRAUD word. I have noticed this in the bank scandals as well by dropping fraud for miss selling and miss guided advice. In both cases the act of fraud has been committed.

Horse meat has to be better than mule meat, or them bouncy kangaroos.
There is nothing wrong with any of those meats, as long as they are sold for what they are and have not been given drugs which are banned for use in meat destined for human consumption.

CAPLOCK strikes.
The word FRAUD is in the headline and is used again several times through the article.
They even expand on the word you are blind to with the use of "fraudulent" at one point.

Unable to open the link yesterday due to a error message coming up! Was able to find another way today. So the Guardian used the word but the TV news so far has not. Forgive me for being a arsehole but I'm suffering from a number of medical problems and the pills don't help much.
