Three-year-old couldn't walk and almost fell into a coma after eating Kinder egg

A three-year-old boy from Barry "looked dead" after he was hospitalised with suspected salmonella poisoning from a Kinder egg.

Billy Way became violently ill after eating his brother's Kinder Surprise chocolate last month. His mum Kasey Cooke said doctors feared her boy could fall into a coma due to his dangerously low blood sugar levels.

It comes after Kinder products, including Kinder Surprise eggs, made at a plant in Belgium were recalled over an outbreak of salmonella. The chocolate factory has been forced to close after investigators recorded more than 100 cases of salmonella, including 63 in the UK.
