Snipped the BS. That's enough right there to put me off a company for good.

They were *caught* doing this, which makes one wonder what other stunts
they pulled which were not detected. I don't care if Ikea was serving
tainted meat on Mars, any incident like this is a warning. I also know
that ultimately the blame was placed on a number of unscrupulous
intermediaries and processors, but one wonders - what was Ikea doing
dealing with such low-grade, dishonest vendors?

Sorry. You enjoy your possibly tainted and / or adulterated food
products. I won't be partaking. If I need swedish meatballs I will
make them myself, with meat that I know is not tainted and / or
adulterated.
