To me the biggest issue isn't so much the fact that it was horse meat. Either you eat meat or you don't, and whether it's beef or horse doesn't make it rationally any different. The problem is what it implies, which is that the operation is so vast and enforcement of regulations so inconsistent that the seller doesn't really have any idea what is on their shelves, nor can they trace it back to solve a problem when one arises. This is a problem even with non meat products.

Another reason to feel relieved that we don't eat meat.

Nearly two years ago. A lot of fuss in the media...a lot of puns too.

Oh, I didn't look at the date and I haven't watched the news today yet. I thought that it was bad that it could happen again!

Sorry about that. I was reading a recent article and this one was linked, so I did not check the date and assumed it was recent, too.
