Supermarkets remove dozens of chicken products in salmonella scare

Dozens of chicken products have been pulled from supermarket shelves amid salmonella fears.

Tesco and Sainsbury's are among the chains affected by the outbreak of the food poisoning bacteria at a major chicken processing factory. Aldi, Marks & Spencer, Waitrose and Pret a Manger, have also scrapped a range of ready-to-eat foods including sandwiches, wraps and salads.

The recall came after salmonella was discovered in 'a limited number' of cooked chicken products, according to the supplier, Cranswick. The recall is for products made in the company's Hull factory, but are sold as ingredients for sandwiches, deli products and meals to retailers and food to go outlets throughout the UK.
