Horse meat scandal showed that manufacturers can't be trusted

to be honest about about what sort of meat is in a product.... and you'd trust them about how much chlorine, growth hormones, and antibiotics they would use?

Oh and when the horse meat scandal was exposed the Tories promised more checks on the standards of meat being sold. That promise has since been scrapped.
