Yum! Brands Inc.’s Taco Bell Mexican-food chain is the latest company to have found horse meat in its beef products, the U.K. Food Standards Agency said.
Taco Bell withdrew ground beef from its three U.K. restaurants, the company said in a statement on its website. The adulteration was discovered in “some batches of ground beef supplied to us from one supplier in Europe,” according to the statement. Taco Bell has restaurants at West Thurrock and Basildon, east of London, and at a food court in Manchester, England, according to its website.
