Do random DNA tests on your American consumer meats and meatproducts, then come back...

In other news, CMOT Dibbler has finally moved passed simple sausages in a bun.

Before being cooked, maybe. Afterward, are you sure that's still the appropriate label?

You don't have to be mad to eat British meat, but it helps.

Now that we let the corporations do their own testing, I'm sure they'd gladly do so.

This sounds like the did PCR for porcine DNA. This is an extremely sensitive technique that can also be subject to false positives if you aren't careful. I'd like to know what the level of contamination is.

"This is very serious because no Muslim would ever eat pork meat - anything to do with pork - and it must be very distressing for those in prison who have been given this meat to realise they may have been eating food which was contaminated with pig."

When the main concern of your prison population is that they may have been fed pork at some point, you might be doing something wrong.

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest the Fark Headline Filter scrubbed out the asterisk?

Yes, but not necessarily "Dobbin", "Rover", or "Mittens".

The sole remaining category is Mystery Van. All of the answers contain a Mystery. Sheldon, you start.

I'll take Mystery Van for $200, Alec.

The British are known for their love of animals, but many are killed by lorries on the country's highways and byways each year.

Where does Mystery Meat come from?

Correct. It is mostly road kill with some knackered horses.

I'll take Mystery Van for $400, please.

This famous tourist trap lives up to its name by being the pits.

What is Mystery Hole?

At this point, British meat should just be labeled "Meat"

...And if you don't eat it, you can't have any pudding!

"This is very serious because no Muslim would ever eat pork meat - anything to do with pork - and it must be very distressing for those in prison who have been given this meat to realize they may have been eating food which was contaminated with pig."

Yeah, about that. I know plenty of Muslims who eat pork (and drink alcohol). Also, the best ham I've ever tasted was cooked by a nice Jewish lady. While I'm at it I've met plenty of Hindus who love steaks and burgers. Regardless of the religion or the rules, some people are less observant than others.

This is also a good time to remind everyone of THIS.

So your imaginary friend says you mustn't eat certain things. The same imaginary friend told you not to do the things that you're in prison for.

Seems like selective religion to me, and by the way YOU'RE IN PRISON getting free food. You can choose to eat it or not

Or "onna" stick, there's that too. Don't forget the tofu rat scandal, as well.

When my brother was guarding a group of POW's in Gulf War I, he apologized in advance to an Iraqi officer that some of the MRE's they were to get contained pork. Apparently the officer shrugged and said "It's alright. When we have no choice as to what to eat, Allah will allow us to eat pork." I wonder how widespread that attitude is.
