Food Safety Alert: Detection of Listeria Monocytogenes in Frozen Chicken Kebabs

Date: October 10, 2025

A significant food safety incident has been reported involving the detection of Listeria Monocytogenes in frozen chicken kebabs originating from Poland. This bio-contaminant poses serious health risks, particularly to vulnerable populations such as pregnant women, the elderly, and individuals with weakened immune systems.

The presence of Listeria Monocytogenes in food products can lead to listeriosis, a severe infection that may result in symptoms such as fever, muscle aches, and gastrointestinal distress. In some cases, it can lead to more severe complications, including meningitis and septicemia.

Consumers are advised to check their freezers for any frozen chicken kebabs purchased recently and to discard any products that may be implicated in this incident. It is crucial to follow safe food handling practices, including cooking poultry to the appropriate internal temperature and maintaining cleanliness in food preparation areas.

Food safety authorities are actively monitoring the situation and conducting further investigations to prevent any additional risks to public health. It is essential for consumers to stay informed and adhere to any guidance provided by health officials regarding this matter.

For more information, please refer to your local food safety agency or health department.
