Kids just ate raw fucking chicken pops feel so guilty

[Fecksakereallygodreally]

I'm a terrible mum. I just picked them up 🤷 as I thought they were the cooked version 🤢. They ate the whole pack before the guy told me. It's going to be a long messy weekend. 😭 They are going to be unwell and it's all my fault

Some of the posts on here have been appallingly rude and judgemental. OP telling a few to piss off is mild and restrained.

I take it you've never heard of ceviche

@Lucyboat sitting here ready and waiting 🤣

Get them to the hospital to have their stomach pumped

😂😂😂
omg, you’d get laughed out A&E

Hi OP,

I'm sorry you had such a scary time with this. They really should make the two types of packaging more obvious especially when the products are so similar.

Just to say that the incubation period for Campylobacter is 2-3 days and Salmonella is 12hrs to 3 days so it's worth keeping watch for a few more days. I know of at least one person who ate some raw chicken and got away with it though so fingers crossed.

I was rude to some as they were being very judgemental and being assholes. Dont expect someone to reply politely if you post a rude comment either.

No they didn't even feel nasueas. Yes I'm hoping that we don't have a dormant strain. 🤞

Been happily playing and winding each other up all morning 😂. And enjoying the 🌞☀️

Going to triple check ✔️✅✔️ all packaging now.

One of my DC eats those because she's so fussy with her food (ASD). Yes maybe for the majority of kids they're not ideal to eat regularly but if a child has sensory issues they're actually pretty good!! Not sure why people had to me you feel bad for using them.

I'm glad your children are feeling well in themselves today. Easy mistake to make if you're feeling flustered.

At least it wasn't chicken plops, OP, things could have been worse. Hopefully you will all weather the storm!!

I have inadvertently done this, and I was fine. Btw I have the most sensitive stomach in the world and I was preparing for the worst, but I was fine.

Do not beat yourself up, these things happen, I'm sure they'll be fine, just keep an eye, bless ya, xxxx

Hopefully Waitrose charge what they charge because they use good quality chicken.
My DD ate a chicken leg on Monday afternoon that had been in a lunch box at school since Friday morning. She was only 3 - and was fine. I waited all week for the poonami, but nothing.
hopefully they will be fine. Amazing that they are then though!

Latch key kids in the 70's. Got home after school and ate the half roasted chicken in the oven on a timer instead of heating up the spag bol on the hob. Only noticed when we figured the chicken was bloody, chewy and not very warm inside!
Nobody got sick. We survived. Mum worked in social services so, no neglect at all and exemplary parenting.
These things happen x

Hey OP hope kiddos are OK! My husband has done the exact same thing! Kids had already eaten before I took a bite and realised!! Don't worry about it, we all lived to tell the tale, it happens. For what it's worth, you'd think they would make it much more obvious on the packaging because they literally look identical to the ones that are precooked!

This

There's link definitely the ones that needed to be cooked / heated up. Also it was the actual manager who told me out of concern bless him 😳😳😳

@Toomuchtrouble4me gotta admit go mainly for the reductions 😁

How are they op?

Whilst on holiday recently I starting eating some ready made prawn cocktail which I’d put in a sandwich which tasted very odd and fizzy although it was in date. I threw my sandwich away but kept quiet as my husband and son had already eaten their sandwiches without comment, we were all fine….phew!! 😂😂

So far so good. Omg the prawn story!!!!

You know your stomach contains hydrochloric acid right?

Hahahahaha! OP, this story is gold, and one you will tell them when they’re older. No harm done. I’ve had a shit day with my own kids and this has really tickled me. Glad everyone is well though. x

10/10 for the best thread title this week 😂

I gotta admit the coke theory is interesting. But yes everything is fine so far thanks 👍.
