Broke a tooth on the Findus lasagne I had for lunch.

Think there might have been some bits of unicorn in there.

Care to expand or are you just going to take a contrary stance on this?

Another day, another summit between supermarkets and government. This time on how to restore customer confidence in processed food.

Here's a suggestion:

Well much as it pains me to state the bleedin' obvious, it's the same theory that applies to the "beefburgers should be made of beef" train of thought. However as we have seen, this isn't always the reality.

This conversation started with a poster (WIZEB?) stating they were making their own, so in that case, a Cottage Pie will indeed be made with beef mince (from a butcher), so BG is right, it isn't a theory at all.

I don't recollect anyone claiming they should be made from shepherds or cottages, so I fail to understand your stance

Just highlighting that someone who said

Shepherds Pie = Lamb
Cottage Pie = Beef

I said that was the theory anyway (as presumably beef lasagne = beef, lamb lasagne = lamb)

Then Graeme came FFS'ing into proceedings and it descended into farce.

Nevermind, Ill leave my amateur sattire for a more discerning audience next time!
