SFC have recalled Chicken Poppets and Take Home Boneless Buckets because Salmonella has been found in the products.
It has been reported by media that five people have died and hundreds have fallen ill from salmonella poisoning after eating the contaminated chicken.

The Food Standards Agency said batch codes starting PKW are displayed on the outside of the box. Batch codes starting with an L are displayed on the inner packaging inside the box.
The chicken is sold in Tesco and Sainsbury's.
The Food Standard Agency said: "If you have bought any of the above products do not eat them. Instead, return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund or alternatively, email a photo of the product packaging clearly showing the batch code information printed on the inner bag of the products to customerservices@sfcwholesale.co.uk for a refund and then safely dispose of the product at home."
