Another Food Law That Gets My Goat

Having ranted about the widespread sale of Halal meat on another thread, I cannot understand why restaurants, pubs and take aways are no longer legally required to specify the type of fish that is hidden in batter when advertised as 'fish and chips' or 'traditional fish and chips'.
If you ask the staff they won't know. Some people are allergic to Panga (also known as Vietnamese River Cobbler and other names), I'm not but I don't like it yet it is being commonly substituted for cod or haddock.
Panga is dirt cheap and they are charging cod prices for it. Google it and you'll find plenty of reasons not to eat it.
It is illegal to sell meat pies, meat sandwiches etc without specifying the type of meat.
Do you care what's inside your batter when you eat fish and chips?

They had rock salmon this morning at the farmers market ..All local from a chap who fishes off the coast here. I love rock salmon . We're lucky to have local fishermen,although only a few,but well worth supporting and a fishmonger What's served up round here is mostly caught locally .
I wouldn't eat in a Harvester or any place that just serves "white fish ".

The last time I bought fish and chips from the chippy it was very very expensive and the batter was horrid. I vowed there and then to learn how to make proper crisp batter or die in the attempt, and I did (and no beer or soda water involved either). Most Fridays, we now have home cooked haddock(our personal favourite) with chips and peas, sliced white bread and a cup of tea. Food for the gods!
