Tesco & Horse meat (1/13)

A woman has been taken into hospital after eating horse meat burgers from Tesco
Her condition is said to be stable

So they have found a Horse burger in Tesco.
What's next, My Lidl pony?

Had some burgers from Tesco for my tea last night....
I still have a bit between my teeth

Anyone want a burger from Tesco? yay or neigh?

"I've just checked the Tesco burgers in my freezer...AND THEY'RE OFF

Tesco now forced to deny presence of zebra in burgers, as shoppers confuse barcodes for serving suggestions.

I hear the smaller version of those Tesco burgers make great horse d'oeuvres.
