More Isle of Man Meats beef to be disposed of following investigation

Friday, 2 February 2024 08:56

More beef processed at the Island's abattoir will need to be thrown away.

That's according to the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture, following an investigation.

It comes after some product had to be destroyed last month because of delays caused by a faulty packaging machine.

Following this, concerns have been raised with certain processing practices within Isle of Man Meats and some more beef will have to be disposed of.

A small amount that was sent to Tesco this week has been recalled.
