Fish is good for you

Calton does not have any objection to eating horsemeat per se, however he does like to know the provenance of what he is eating. He doesn't want to be eating some old nag from Provence which expired of goodness knows what disease before it even got to the knacker's yard. That's the real problem with all this - not the type of animal but the condition it was in before it became lasagne. That and a small issue with the Trades Descriptions Act. Our farmers can trace an animal from birth to table - they are being badly let down by the actions of unscrupulous meat providers from other countries. If ever there was a time to buy British, from your local butcher, it's now. Or turn vegetarian. Calton is having a nice wee bit of salmon for his tea tomorrow night. Freshly caught. From a fish farm.
