More than 100 products containing chicken are being recalled from major supermarkets, convenience stores and café chains because of fears they might be contaminated with salmonella. Cranswick Country Foods, which supplies to retailers, has made the recall, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) said in an official alert.
"Cranswick Country Foods are recalling several products containing chicken because salmonella has been found in some of the chicken used to manufacture these products," the agency said. "As a precaution additional products are also being recalled whilst investigations continue."
The recall covers 111 products and lines, including items such as sandwiches and wraps sold by Aldi, Tesco, Waitrose, M&S, Sainsbury's, Amazon, Co-op, Shell petrol stations, One Stop, Caffé Nero and Starbucks. The FSA said: "If you have bought the above products, do not eat them. Instead, return them to the store from where they were bought for a full refund."
