You know what... Just Lunchmeat

You ever had Turkey Lunchmeat? It doesn't even taste like Turkey.

At least not any turkey we have on planet earth.

Right on.

I used to like turkey before I realized it's basically low-quality chicken that looks like ham.

You are wrong.

It's low quality ham that looks like chicken.

...it's turkey. It is not chicken, though you can get hams of it.

[Graknorke]

Turkey is turkey is turkey.

Turkey twizzlers, on the other hand, taste delicious, but are probably barely turkey.

They don't even exist anymore. And weren't particularly nice. They were just kind of a strange amalgamation of grease and [N/A].

I read that as "grease and DNA". Which is probably also true.

[Octobomb]

Horse DNA, that would be.

Who eats horses? The meat is too tough.

Lunchmeat, hah, I know this one. Don't even know what's going on in those kitchens, and for my sanity I don't plan to find out.

Who eats horses? The meat is too tough.

The majority of Europe. Well, not intentionally, but they eat it.

There was a big fiasco a while back. Media whipped itself into a frenzy over the possible presence of some drug (steroids I think). Turns out that to get a dose, that was considered safe for humans 30 years ago, you have to eat about 50 contaminated burgers within about 12 hours. Woo, Britishness! How very quintessential.

How to British media:
1: Get to a story first and sensationalise it
2: If you can't do that, condemn the others for sensationalising it and then report in a more objective manner.
3: Don't be the Daily Mail

Why not intentionally? Horse is delicious.

Food manufacturers agree with you, but generally it turns out that people don't respond well when their beef turns out to be a different animal entirely.

[Eric Blank]

The solution, clearly, is to label it "horse meat."

[Xantalos]

The solution, clearly, is to label it "horse meat."

Obviously.

[Fniff]

Yeah, I just don't get why they went through the whole process to begin with when it was as simple as that to fix.

[Octobomb]

Obviously.

It was actually nearly all original product. As in very very tiny amounts of horse. That's the Brit media for you.

Pretty much, 'cept in step 2 ensure you sensationalise whilst condemning. The masses don't want no objectivity yu now! Bruv.
