Findus beef lasagne was up to 100 per cent horse meat !

"Shoppers who bought the lasagne meals, which are produced by French food supplier Comigel on behalf of Findus, have now been warned not to eat them.

Retail giant Tesco and discount chain Aldi withdrew a range of ready meals produced by Comigel over fears they contained contaminated meat.

The FSA said there is no evidence to suggest the horse meat found is a food safety risk.

But the agency confirmed tests have been ordered on the lasagne for the veterinary drug phenylbutazone. Animals treated with "bute" are not allowed to enter the food chain."

Findus has a hard earned good reputation for good food at a reasonable price. If a company like Findus does not know what is in it’s processed foods and ready meals the situation is pretty grim. All the more reason to base your meals on fresh vegetables, add some good proteins and quality fats. The less man has been involved the better. Don’t base your food on a failed science experiment or greed by big international food outfits, buy fresh and local wherever possible.
