# No; the point is
nobody knows what horsemeat was used. Every cow in the UK has a 'passport' and is traceable throughout the system. I wouldn't mind eating horse, but I'd want to know it has been checked for disease etc before I do.

# Given my passport cost about seventy quid
I think it's pretty fucking profligate of the UK government to dish them out to cows willy-nilly.

# Oh be fair
If your entire life consisted of standing in a field then being killed and eaten, you can't begrudge them a holiday. Strange so few cows take up the option.

# True
But cows can't go on planes -- too big -- and and things tend to happen to them when they pass through France. Being eaten is bad enough but being eaten raw by a Frenchman? The mind shudders.

the problem is not what is in things generally

but why "random things are suddenly in things" that should not be in things.

Wow, poor standards in the meat industry, how completely surprise

innit.

# see
in every supermarket there's a special, unmarked area for people who have been playing 'Reconciling the Seemingly Disparate'

sometimes I got to Tesco just to find that shelf
