"Fresh British Pork Lion Steaks (480g) was £1.99 now £1.59"

I thought GM foods were banned in the UK

yeah.. the queues aren't that long...

Looks like it was packed by these people http://www.2sfg.com/about-us/

Thanks muchly. Lets see what happens next.

Just had a reply from Lidl they need a "Barcode number from the product packaging".

I haven't bought so if anyone out there has these details I would appreciate them and will then be able to pass on their reply to all ie WHERE is Birchwood Farm?

Many Thanks,

​own label means things such as tesco value range or asda chosen by you. what lidl is doing is misleading people into thinking they are real companies even using the words "exclusive to lidl" they do this because your more like to pick a brand either real or fake over an own label that has the supermarket name and logo plasted all over it.

The Red Tractor scheme assures you only that the meat has come from British factory farms, where they grow mutant chickens and cut off pigs' tails without anaesthetic.

Red Tractor is the largest food scheme in the UK, which covers all aspects of the food’s lifespan. The Red Tractor logo indicates that food is safe to eat, and has been produced responsibly - from farm to fork.

We cover an extensive range of products including, meat, poultry, diary, cereals, fruit and vegetables. We are strict with our regulations and cover everything, including food safety and traceability, animal welfare and environmental protection.
The flag in the Red Tractor logo tells you where the food has been farmed, processed and packed. It’s a sign to represent quality food that you can trust – Trust the tractor.

But The red tractor does not tell me where it comes from

Looks like a false farm as the only other i could see was in America why cant lidl just be honest about where it came from. I thought the Red Tractor was to say it came from th uk farms

A quick google search reveals Birchwood Farm is a campsite in Derbyshire.

Apparently there have been reports of a number of campers going missing....

I am wondering what country the meat came from

Nothing fake in it, just one of their own labels.

I was hoping the mince was 20% fat. Anything less tends to be a bit tasteless and dry. Hotty hotster.

where is birchwood farm poland or some place like that ?

Mince is 20%. Still cheap though.

Won't get 10% fat for that price, must be 20% like someone said.

Neeeeeeeiiiigh way!

Wow. We get charged near £5 a kilo at local butchers. But they do 3kg for £10

Fat content says 20% on Lidl website so misleading

Nice find just hope i can get some before its all gone

Just as well I didn't get off the bus then!

yeah.. the queues aren't that long...

Just on the bus outside Lidl right now. Tempted to get off and buy this. But the queues are usually far too long.
