I found poo on my chicken brought from Tesco#!!!!

Do you know if they can get fined for doing so and yes i am sure that its poo.

Word of warning about washing raw meat under the tap before washing, I would never recommend it due to the risk of splashing. In other words you could end up with clean meat but a sink/worktops covered in Salmonella or Campylobacter. Cooking will destoy everything anyway so theres no need to wash it first.

I think it might have been a live creature once.

wOULD YOU ALL EAT IT? OR TAKE IT BACK?

We would all eat it I think Jelly, as long as it is cooked properly it is not dangerous.

pmsl at chopster ^fingering' a chicken

I would eat it. I would not take it back.

I'd wipe the poo off with a wet kitchen roll that I then threw in the bin.

PMSL a lot!!!!! I would wash it, cook it and not get another. The point for me is, if it was a more 'earthy' chicken (i.e. bought from the organic farm where it was slaughtered 1/2 hour b4) I would expect some grime, it onlt feels wrong because everything from Tesco is meant to be plasticky and shiny. Believe me, it's not...

Hmm I had what looked like mice poo in my cereal this morning, I quickly fished it out and erased it from my memory, else I wouldnt eat cereal ever again.

rumour has it that they are allowed so many percentage of mouse poop?

Arrgh! You are not serious, a percentage of mouse poo.
Thats it, thats confirmed what I thought I saw, never will I feed my family cereal again.

Chopster...how does your finger 'slip' up a chicken's arse exactly!!

LOLOL at too many things to mention

pmsl at chopster. it's not so much the poo - it's the fact that it "still had a bottom". not something I;ve ever really thought about before...

well I wasn't expecting it to have a bum, and I was skinning it!!

I kept the chicken so i could take it back but it went off before i could. Gutted i wonder what i could have got.

Jelly you should have put it in the freezer

what was your first question? can chickens be fined for pooing???

tena lady ..relax.. the filth test measures bits of twig & insect parts (maximum allowable)mmm crunchy. but I'd be wary of mouse poo..mice have notoriously weak bladders & wee fairly constantly...apparently you can see where they've been by following the trail under UV light...enjoy your cereal

yES i think all chicken should be fined for pooing, totally unacceptable to poo whilst other chickens are around.
