On March 25, 2025, a significant food safety incident was reported involving the detection of Salmonella bacterial strains in frozen chicken half breasts. The issue originated from Brazil and falls under the category of bio-contaminants, highlighting the potential health risks associated with the consumption of contaminated poultry products.
