Misleadingly Named Produce

EDM number 60 in 2008-09, proposed by Andrew Pelling on 03/12/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Consumers and Food.

That this House is concerned that some supermarket low-cost line foods such as pork sausages and fish pies contain less than 10 per cent. of pork or fish, respectively, while being bulked out with ingredients such as water, animal fats and sugar; and believes that such practices are a threat to the nation's health and that such products should not be misrepresented as pork sausages or fish pies when their nomenclatured content is so low.

This motion has been signed by a total of 48 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
