Tesco worry..is this REALLY lambs liver?

[SaharaS]

Can I come and be your dog in my next life? He eats far better than I do!

I do feed random HHO'ers on a regular basis on here, all in aid of teaching the dog new people are not scary...even ones from here!..we've had curry's & spag bols so far,next will be shepherds pie..made entirely of cowmen,fishermen & tescos butchers!

So you made an entire meal for your dog and had a cake yourself?! Lol! Bless!
You do know there is an entire isle dedicated to pet food in all supermarkets!
Re the liver, I would keep the packaging, take pics, remove a bit off for testing and feed the rest to the dog!

Absolutely! had totally lost my appetite...except for cake of course!Dog food aisle?Really?? is that the bit they call the delicatessen?

I agree with Ladyinred, please let me come and be your dog!!

As a poor uni student I can only dream of salmon and steak

~Have images of lots of pantomine horse style dogs turning up with food bowls...and cutlery!

I wouldn't be thinking it was anything like horse etc as they traced the horse DNA to imported protein powder (so it has a higher percentage 'meat') which was added to the tainted products. Why not take it back to the shop and query or just send a pic to BBC news, they may be interested...

I know, but I was soooo shocked when I slopped it out of the pack I actually dropped the sieve in the sink it was so big & heavy..still slightly freaked out by how big it was..whatever it was really shouldn't have been labeled as lamb..Daily Fail or BBC?..unless ofcourse it was a giant lamb like one of those giant donkeys! Surprisingly...someone was VERY keen to do the testing for me!

That was the case for most of the tainted products but some of the burgers were 29% horsemeat - that aint protein powder that be Dobbin...:-DD

I would get it tested - I suspect it will come out as calf liver/ox liver (which is crap enough being mislabelled) but if it were horse then that really needs to be identified for their own sake so they can sort out that issue too.

Thats what I was thinking - simply if its even a misslabelling issues that is not good - say if it was pigs liver..that would be awful for some..as you all rightly so tho dog would not mind but I am getting it tested..bleurgh. I'm not overly keen on handling meat as it is-was veggie for 15 years after passing a chicken factory with a door open once... easily scared...

Horse liver would not fit in your baking tray!

That recently Tescos have included HORSE in their meat products - an animal commonly used for equestrianism! ...your question could apply to MANY posts about babies, relationship woes..children..work..the weather..cats..getting airline upgrades!

It could be a lambs liver. Livers are pretty darn large (one of the biggest organs in the body) so it could be feasible that it is.

At what point does a lamb become a sheep.

Technically, a lamb changes status when it's shed the first and central pair of its incisors. Depending upon what they've been fed on, will often depend at what age this happens (feeding on root crops, for instance, will bring the date forward, a bit), but generally between 12 and 15 months.

It really could be lambs liver. I have butchered some carcasses with livers larger than you describe.

Sounds to me like lambs liver, we had 6 lambs killed last Sept and their livers were huge, would have easily taken up a roasting tray.

I better not mention that he gets three meals a day then or I'll be over run!

Don't worry problem solved..he's been in negotiations today, 'talking' to the fridge, willing the door to open..now he is a little horse! Better now everyone???

[and disclaimer incase anyone is worried....yes I know there is an 'a' in hoarse..]

ETA ooh..we really are in AAD! Brilliant..Admin must have a lovely sense of humour

my bets are on lambs liver as well...lamb as in fully grown sheep meat...if it was horse or cows liver you wouldnt be able to fit it on a baking tray!!! The liver is a very big organ. . you would be surprised at how large a sheeps liver is when u put all the lobes flat... plus sheep would be the cheaper type of liver compared to cattle so no need for mislabelled.
