The Turkish Agriculture and Forestry Ministry's imitation and adulteration list found single-hoofed animal meat in products of two businesses in Bursa. It was determined that horse and donkey meat was used in pide, cantık, meatballs and sucuk.
In its list published on 30 September, the ministry announced irregularities in products such as cheese, yoghurt, butter, sucuk, meatballs and olive oil. In pide restaurants in Ankara and Bursa, chicken meat and head meat were found in fillings served as "veal and lamb meat". The analyses showed that the contents of some products did not reflect "pure" and "natural" claims.
