A sample of a noodle product with meat is seen in a laboratory ready to be DNA-tested on February 19, 2013 in Berlin. German authorities announced that 24 samples out of 360 official tests carried out on meat had revealed traces of horsemeat as the scandal of horse mislabeled as beef spread across Europe. Horsemeat in "beef" dishes has now been confirmed in products found in Britain, Ireland, France, Austria, Norway, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal and Belgium.
