Are the burgers saying using Uk meat? or were they made abroad?
If saying using Uk meat. I would ask why horse meat is in the UK abotior / food chain.
If made in a country using horsemeat in there food produce it may get cross contamination.0 -

As mentioned above, its how it got into the food chain that is worrying, and misrepresentation's on the label

Exactly, the issue isn't so much that is horse meat, more that it isn't listed as an ingredient so it removes any choice over whether to eat the food or not.
Quite glad I make my own burgers though now.0 -
I checked the burgers in my fridge.
Aaaaand they're off!0 -
