Findus UK can now confirm that ‘bute’ (phenylbutazone) was not found in the Beef Lasagne (withdrawn from sale on the 4th February) which we sent to accredited and certified scientific laboratories for testing.

We wanted to share this latest news with you and we remain truly sorry that horsemeat was found in our beef lasagne at all. This should not have happened and we are taking actions to make sure this will never happen again.

DNA tests have been carried out on all other Findus UK products and they are not affected.
