Subject: Fw: British humour

 

tell you what, these got me laughing. 

 

In the UK, some supermarkets admitted there is horse meat in their all-beef burgers.

 

Including giant Tesco, a supermarket chain in the UK thats owned by WalMart. 

Within hours of the news that Tesco's 'all beef hamburgers' contained 30% horse meat, 

these hit the Internet

 I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse ...I guess Tesco just listened!
 
Anyone want a burger from Tesco? Yay or neigh?
 
Not entirely sure how Tesco are going to get over this hurdle.
 
Had some burgers from Tesco for supper last night … I still have a bit between my teeth.
 
A woman has been taken into hospital after eating horse meat burgers from Tesco. Her condition is listed as stable. 
 
Tesco are now testing all their vegetarian burgers for traces of unicorn. 
 
I've just checked the Tesco burgers in my freezer ... "AND THEY'RE OFF!" 
 
Tesco is now forced to deny the presence of zebra in burgers, as shoppers confuse barcodes for serving suggestions. 
 
I said to the missus, "These Tesco burgers give me the trots... "
 
"To beef or not to beef, that is equestrian .."  
 
I hear the smaller version of those Tesco burgers make great horse d'oeuvres. 
 
These Tesco burger jokes are going on a bit … talk about flogging a dead horse. 
 
Last night the wife made meatloaf, so I had dinner with two nags. 
 
Since they're selling the meat wrapped in plastic, is that technically a "Trojan Horse?" 
 
Instead of choosing "rare, medium or well done, it's now Win, Place or Show" 
 

At first, I thought, "Oh great, I've been saddled with another email to forward, but something spurred me on."
