“More needs to be done to make chicken safe” – Which? response to news that Sainsbury’s have publicly committed to tackling campylobacter

Which? executive director, Richard Lloyd said:

“It beggars belief that nearly three-quarters of chickens on sale in supermarkets are still infected with this potentially deadly bug and that no retailers have met the FSA’s target.

“With Sainsbury’s now publicly committing to tackling campylobacter, it’s encouraging all supermarkets have acknowledged the need to take action, but much more needs to be done to make chicken safe. We now need to see all supermarkets actively reducing levels of campylobacter.”
