Channel 4 - 3 Minute Wonder: Kebabs

[Octavius]

The full story from beginining to end of how the kebab gets to the polystyrene box.

Anyone see it last night?

[WoWo]

Yes, nowhere near as bad as it sounded to be honest.

I think they glossed over what actually went into it, it went very quicly from the removal of the sheeps coat to the finished product without much explanation of where the actual "meat" was coming from.

I missed this, don't even remember seeing it advertised. Anyone know if it's gonna be repeated on any of the sky/digi channels?

[Octavius]

I know what you mean WoWo, but I wouldn�t use the term meat. Gruesome nonetheless and when that large dollop of �.meat.. plopped onto the bench I had resigned that the doner kebab I had in 1992 was indeed the last one.

Trigger, they were indeed well packed, but with what was indeterminate.

Ksf - I think you can download them here http://www.channel4.com/fourdocs/about/index.h tml

[WoWo]

Yeah that's why I put meat in quotes.... It was just that one minutes they were skinning a sheep and all of a sudden there was all this minced up meat, no explnation of where it had come from. Then when they were building it they had these thin layers of meat, which in actual fact looked just like fat.

The full film can be seen here (about 5mins)

Be warned it's a bit bloody but nothing too serious.

[ksf4eva]

No more kebebs 4 me neither! think i might turn vegeterian in fact coz its damn rite cruelty wot goes on in those slaughter houses plus the meat we eat these days is known 2 cause many cancers especially stomach cancer and oesophogus cancer.

[h_m_kemp]

no offense kevo, but cancer takes years to develop, that's why people smoke for 20 odd years and then come down with lung cancer. Therefor if cancer is developing now we shouldn't look at our current standard of food but the standard and quality of food in the recent past.
