Pro-Pak Foods recalls some sliced chicken roll
Friday 26 February 2010
Pro-Pak Foods has recalled some of its two sliced chicken roll products, because they are contaminated with listeria. The products are Country Store Chicken Roll and Netto Chicken Roll. Listeria is a bacterium that causes food poisoning. The Agency has issued a Food Alert for Information.
Pro-Pak Foods has carried out a product recall and will be displaying point-of sale-notices in shops that sell either of the products, explaining to customers why the products have been recalled. If you have bought an affected product you can get a full refund.
The products are distributed in England, Scotland and Wales but not Northern Ireland.

Food alerts
If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product). Food alerts are the FSA's way of letting local authorities and consumers know about problems associated with food and, in some cases, providing details of specific action to be taken. They are issued under two categories:
- Food Alerts: for Action
- Food Alerts: for Information
You can get FSA alerts either by email or SMS text. Visit the Get Alerts page at the link below to find out how.
You can also subscribe to our Really Simple Syndication (RSS) feed for food and allergy alerts. RSS is a format for distributing news content and is a simple way to keep up to date with the latest news on a website.
When we publish via RSS, you can automatically get the updated content via a 'news aggregator' or 'news reader'. Our RSS feed will contain a brief summary and link back to our web content. Click on ‘What is RSS’ on the left of this page for more details.
