Girl, 3, looks 'dead behind the eyes' after getting salmonella from 'eating a Kinder Surprise'

A mum has told how her three-year-old daughter was left looking 'dead behind the eyes' after she contracted Salmonella 'from eating a Kinder Surprise chocolate egg'.

Charlotte Wingfield said her little girl Brooklyn-Mai 'had never been so poorly in her life' after contracting the bacteria, Hull Live reports. She shared photos after her daughter's temperature spiked to 39C because of the food poisoning.

This comes as Kinder issued warnings to people who had bought any of its products not to eat them and the company's chocolate factory in Belgium has been ordered to close. Ms Wingfield said in her Facebook post, which has since been shared more than 500 times, that Brooklyn-Mai had eaten some of the chocolate before falling ill.
