Millions of Britons have chowed down on goat kebabs, it is estimated, in a scandal likened to the horsemeat crisis. DNA testing revealed that doner meat from a leading supplier, advertised as ’70 percent lamb’, was in fact ‘less than 10 percent sheep’.
‘We were seeing labels that bore no resemblance to what they were actually putting in [to the kebabs],’ Mr Harries said. ‘They were charging wholesalers and consumers a premium price for something that’s full of rubbish.’
