The French now consume less than 300 grams (0.66 lbs) per person per year, a fifth of what they ate 30 years ago and less than 1 percent of the total meat they consume. The European Commission has proposed increased DNA testing of meat products to assess the scale of a scandal involving horsemeat sold as beef meat that has shocked the public and raised concern over the continent's food supply chains.

針對歐洲最近爆發的"馬肉醜聞",歐盟各國代表在布魯塞爾商議是否應該推出全歐範圍的牛肉基因測試。憑借相關測試,政府機關能夠查出樣品是否為假報為牛肉的馬肉。同時,有關建議呼籲應該對馬肉中殘留的"保泰松"(Phenylbutazon)含量進行檢查,這類藥物有消炎和促使動物興奮的作用。法國政府宣稱已經在涉案的Spanghero公司裡找到了需要承擔主要責任的嫌疑犯,同時也對外公佈了被處理過的肉品以及食物半成品的數量。其中顯示,這家法國公司從羅馬尼亞進口了750噸馬肉,並自行銷售了其中的200噸,剩下的大約550噸被出售至法國速凍食品生產商Comigel設在盧森堡的加工廠。這家公司以此生產了超過450萬份被打上錯誤標籤的食物半成品,並將其銷售給少13個歐盟國家的28家公司。
