Abstract: If you make it, somebody else will fake it. From designer handbags to hair straighteners, there is always a cloned rip-off available, not least at this time of year. There is a fairly good chance that one of the presents you unwrapped on Christmas morning was fake. Most people know this. After all, trading standards have been issuing seasonal warnings about “passing off” for years What we are perhaps less aware of is that your Christmas dinner may not quite be what you thought.
