Will she get sick from eating this and AIBU for being a little pissed off?

[Friends1996]

I had a hospital appointment yesterday and couldn’t take DD with me (she has autism and doesn’t cope in hospital environments).

I left her at home, with my grandparents (early 70’s, still fit and active, etc) and my sister (28 years old). She is quite easy to look after, as she just goes off and does her own thing and only really needs supervising.

I spoke to my grandparents today who said that she was complaining that the chicken in the fridge was spicy yesterday when she was eating it. I then realised that these (linked below) were what she was talking about and that all 3 of them have let DD eat it raw!

I did get a little bit pissed off because firstly, it’s obviously a packet of chicken that needs cooking and it says it right on the front. Secondly, DD kept telling them that it needed cooking and they just ignored her and thought they knew better.

Will this make her sick and unwell? She ate I would say maybe a small filet of it? And AIBU for being pissed off at all 3 of them for making such a stupid mistake and not checking properly?

It’s irrelevant though because that isn’t what she ate 🫣

ah, ok yes obviously a frozen fish finger is raw inside…although this situation wouldn’t arise as you’d obviously know it needed cooking and has no comparable ready to eat product. It’s just unexpected I guess, it looks like a ready to eat product. It’s easier to see why the grandparents were confused when so many here are.

although, this is obviously excepting the whole story which is that the child told them it needed cooking, which in normal life would’ve led you to cut it open and check at the very least.

It’s not! I’ve had it before, the chicken is already cooked and just takes 10 minutes to heat through!

I would be so mad. I had servere coparlobator when I was about 13 from eating uncooked chicken. It took about 4 days from eating to the symptoms starting so please keep an eye this week. Hope she is OK as it was the worst thing ever, I was so unwell

Jesus Christ! Read the thread!

Yes, go on, keep crying "bully", "weird", "bizarre" just because you didn't know something that's blindingly obvious to the majority.
How come people like you always accuse other people of being worked up when they have made exactly as many posts to you as you have made to them?

I mean, you could apologise for mistaking me for all the posters who said it was cooked.

I'm so, so sorry for thinking that you said it was cooked when in fact you've just (apparently, I haven't checked) constantly argued that it was an understandable mistake to assume it wasn't cooked despite things like this having been around for 50 years and on every supermarket shelf.
Now will you apologise to me for accusing me of being weird, bullying and making things up that later a lot of people corroborated? Or is that not how it works? I don't actually care so don't bother. I'd rather you just admit that you've really ought to have known about this sooner and stop arguing that its understandable to make an idiotic mistake like this.

Aldi has an endless shelf of chilled stuff; you have this type of thing right next to eg cooked cornish pasties ('eat hot or cold').

No, as you are all those things. However a quick check of the thread will show you that you have jumped on me berating me for pages because- it turns out- you thought I was someone else. However from my point of view it moved a normal Sunday afternoon conversation into a suffocating, aggressive unpleasant targeted exchange.

I've been replying to your posts because you made them, and they were nonsense. Not because I "thought you were someone else".
They are still nonsense, and everything I said to them was perfectly justified.
Never mind. We'll get you a special medal for not knowing what raw chicken looks like.

My God. Some of these comments!! Of course they need cooking!

I would be very pissed off. I hope she’s ok

I have ocd contamination so I know about raw chicken!

My understanding is that you don't automatically get sick from eating raw chicken - its only if the chicken was infected with the bacteria (I think its salmonella?) than do you get sick.

I find that homeopathic remedy arsen's alba brilliant for accidentally eating raw meat - it was recommended to me by the pharmacist when my son was 2 years old (boots used to sell it). I accidentally ate raw pork on a holiday and within the hour had developed a high temperature...took the pills and within another hour was OK again.

as an aside - I would also complain to aldi - other raw foods which can be mistaken for cooked foods are clearly marked on the front they have raw meat in them.

Ahhh ok yes I did just google it can vary ! Hope she b ok X

It clearly says cook for 18 minutes , this is not an Aldi problem

The ones in Aldi next to Cornish pasties etc are the bits of chicken that are ready to eat, this pack of chicken is from the raw meat section

Oh no! That was highly irresponsible of your relatives to be honest. The risk of getting food poisoning from eating totally raw chicken is very significant. I don’t want to scare you, but I once got very ill from mixing up my utensils when preparing a chicken dish. It started within a few hours, and it’s the worst illness I’ve ever experienced. Thankfully it did self-resolve within a few days, but for vulnerable people it can be very serious. You really can’t be too careful with chicken. So I’d prepare for the worst, but fingers crossed if nothing’s happened yet she might be lucky and get away with it. Really hope she’s OK OP 🤞🏼

its obviously the adults fault not the child. I’m struggling to believe anyone wouldn’t actually eat raw chicken after the first mouthful though surely it’s just inedible?

I mean she is a disabled child, but if you want to question her judgement…

God don’t be so ridiculous .

My nephew did something similar when he was younger, he assumed the breaded chicken was ready to eat! Luckily he didn’t eat them all and he wasn’t sick thankfully!

hopefully your DD is the same!

They're next to each other in mine.

I’m in the US otherwise I would do this. Can someone pop to Aldie - get this exact product and cut it open for us to see?

Why can’t she get food out of her own fridge? That’s an odd rule to have for a child in your house.
