In any food preparation environment there will be instances where an eyelash, nut traces or the mauled carcass of an unrecognisable beast may interact with the production line although obviously we do everything we can to avoid it.</p> <p>Chair of the Royal Society of Ornithology and frozen food enthusiast Sir William Taplow said, “I had one of these avian matrioshkas last week and frankly the whole thing tasted like shit. I wouldn't even one in the house.” </p>
