Food Safety Alert: Salmonella Enteritidis Detected in Chicken Thigh Meat
On November 20, 2025, a significant food safety incident was reported involving the detection of Salmonella Enteritidis in boneless chicken thigh meat originating from Poland. This bio-contaminant poses a serious health risk to consumers, as it can lead to foodborne illness characterized by symptoms such as diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps.
The presence of Salmonella in poultry products is a well-documented concern, necessitating rigorous control measures throughout the food supply chain. Consumers are advised to handle chicken products with care, ensuring proper cooking temperatures are reached to eliminate harmful bacteria. It is essential to cook chicken to an internal temperature of at least 165°F (75°C) to ensure safety.
In light of this incident, food safety authorities are urging consumers to check their chicken products and adhere to safe food handling practices. It is recommended to wash hands, utensils, and surfaces thoroughly after contact with raw poultry to prevent cross-contamination.
Stay informed about food safety alerts and take necessary precautions to protect your health and that of your family. For further information, consult local food safety resources and guidelines.
