The menus will all be changing significantly when BS take over at the end of the month. Out goes all the frozen meals heated up and in comes more fresh organic menu options apparently.

I love the disclaimer on that site

Oh, for goodness sake, did we really have to stirrup this topic again? I hope the mods will rein in the punning or be-furlong this thread will be an unbridled disaster. Can't we just let the story run the course??

I wouldn't be adverse to the introduction of steak sandwiches as a replacement to the overcooked burgers! Come to think of it, even horse steak sandwiches would probably be an improvement!

It appears the menus are not reprinted yet, but will be

Hopefully not for long though subject to what LOM said.

So why don't BA simply add this to the menu and keep serving the burgers? I've eaten horse meat many times in my life, Horse Tartare and Sirloin. Quite tasty in fact.

I find it amusing that British and N. American cultures don't have a problem eating ugly animals (e.g. cows, pigs, chickens) but don't like eating the pretty ones (e.g. horse, rabbit)

We may have neigh bouring cultures sir but we'd have to bar and lock the gaits on such foolishness.
