Burger King admits it has been selling beef burgers containing horsemeat
- Jan 31, 2013 9:50 pm GMT

Burger King has tonight admitted that it has been selling burgers and Whoppers containing horsemeat despite two weeks of denials.
The fast food chain, which has more than 500 UK outlets, had earlier given a series of absolute assurances that its products were not involved.
However, new tests have revealed these guarantees were incorrect in a revelation that threatens to destroy the trust of customers

I'm fine with horsemeat. Maybe McDonalds should add some horsemeat to their "all beef patties", because I'd sure as hell rather eat a burger from Burger King than from McDonalds.- Please wait. Quick reply will be available shortly.

meh, i'd like to have a horseburger. maybe BK isn't the first place i'd go for one, but i'd certainly try it.
it's kinda scummy that that they didn't tell people about it, but honestly i take all these "100% beef" fast food claims with a grain of salt. it would probably be a bigger deal in the US though because i think horsemeat is illegal here.
