Dame Prue Leith has revealed she gave 30 people food poisoning after serving up a dodgy chicken, with 28 ending up in hospital.
The Great British Bake Off judge, 82, recalled the debacle from the early days of her catering career when her company, Leith's Good Food, was hired to cater an event. Speaking in Bath as part of her Nothing in Moderation tour, Prue admitted one of the guests almost ended up in the morgue after her chicken mayonnaise mishap.
Prue said: “You can't be in catering for 30 years without something going disastrously wrong.”
