Just three months after they were pulled from the pie warmers, Pakuranga Bakery's horse meat pies are available again and proving just as popular as ever.
The pies, inspired by lo'i hossi [sic], a Tongan horse meat dish, went viral on social media over summer. But the bakery had to stop selling them in January as the lo'i hossi [sic] mixture they were using contained horse meat that hadn't been cleared for human consumption.
There is only one meat processor registered to slaughter and process horse meat for human consumption in New Zealand. Auckland Council and MPI both confirmed to First Up, Pakuranga Bakery was now sourcing their horse meat from that registered supplier.
