      England too, and I think many cultures world over, actually.

      But in the UK we had a scandal some years ago because retailers sold ‘beef’ that was actually part horse. So it was misleading customers into eating a meat they’d find objectionable.

        Yeah, with the horse meat in the lasagne and other stuff. We had that in Germany, too. But really the issue was more about faulty labeling than the fact that it contained horse meat.
