Food Safety Alert: Salmonella Detected in Chicken Quarters
On November 25, 2025, a significant food safety incident was reported involving the detection of Salmonella bacterial strains in chicken quarters originating from Poland. This incident falls under the category of bio-contaminants, which poses a serious health risk to consumers.
Salmonella is a well-known pathogen that can cause foodborne illnesses, leading to symptoms such as diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. It is crucial for consumers to be aware of this contamination, especially when handling or consuming poultry products. Proper cooking and food handling practices are essential to mitigate the risk of infection.
The detection was reported through the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed portal (RASFF), which monitors food safety across Europe. Authorities are currently investigating the source of the contamination and are taking necessary measures to control the distribution of affected products.
Consumers are advised to check their chicken products and ensure they are sourced from safe suppliers. It is recommended to cook chicken thoroughly to an internal temperature of at least 165°F (75°C) to kill any harmful bacteria. Additionally, maintaining good hygiene practices in the kitchen can help prevent cross-contamination.
Stay informed and prioritize food safety to protect yourself and your family from potential health risks associated with contaminated food products.
