It would really suck if that is the case. I can just see it now, the Romanians getting all high and mighty and moaning "Why do you always pick on Romania!"

Yeah don't they know their place?

Yeah it looks like the Romanians are in the clear. On the other hand this is one of the British farmers alleged to be involved...

That photo takes me back to the height of the mad cow disease scare. On our way through Devon we overtook a car with a "I eat British Beef with Confidence" sticker. As we overtook the car we both glanced back to take a look at the occupants...........well now........centuries of inbreeding and family madness just radiated from that vehicle  :D

John Bull really looks better wearing that hat.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Yeah, fairly sure that prime horsemeat is more expensive than prime beef. Trouble is that a lot of this horsemeat is probably from drugged-up elderly Romanian donkeys  :D

Yeah horses are pretty expensive.  I do not know how my ancestors could afford to have those things pulling them around.

Apparently there''s now horse meat in the Swedish Meat Balls of Ikea  :ph34r:

In the flurry of tests being performed on meat products all over Europe, small percentages of pork have been found on German and Swiss kebab meat.
