THE GUARDIAN: Burgers produced by Doncaster-based Paragon Quality Foods withdrawn from schools in Leicester
Halal lamb burgers have been withdrawn from schools in Leicester after tests revealed a sample contained pork.
The decision follows DNA tests on a batch of frozen burgers manufactured by Doncaster-based Paragon Quality Foods in January, Leicester council said on Thursday.
Assistant mayor Vi Dempster said: "I am appalled by this situation. It is disgraceful that none of us can have confidence in the food we eat.
"We regret any distress this will cause families and staff, and would like to reassure them that robust action is being taken to address this serious matter." » | Press Association | Thursday, May 09, 2013
