Trade Discriptions Act?

Bought a box of pulled duck from Morrisons. It said it was pulled duck on the box. When I opened it there were two uncooked duck legs and a sachet of sauce. Instructions said cook in the oven and then shred the meat.
I felt cheated. I thought I was buying all meat but there were two lots of bones.
Would anyone else have been miffed?

“Picture says 'serving suggestion'.
There's salad on the front of my tin of corned beef too.”
Yes, but your beef (what you expect to find in the can) is still “corned”. It doesn't say "corned beef with salad".
It says "Pulled Duck" and it isn't. It's duck capable of being pulled in the same way that a joint of ham is capable of being sliced. If you sold a box containing a ham joint and described it as "sliced ham" with a picture of sliced ham on the outside (accompanied by the almost invisible words "serving suggestions") you would be misleading your customers. So are the duck people.
