Over 20 tons of Polish meat exported to Slovakia has been found to contain salmonella.
The meat, comprising 20 tons of chicken breast, was imported by Virema Trade in the Slovak town of Galanta. The affected poultry was to have been produced on 12 October.
The salmonella was found by the Slovak Food Inspection board in a 170 kg batch of meat after the meat was reportedly withdrawn from another large chain store. Customers in Slovakia have been offered a full refund due to the bad meat.
