Major supermarkets and retailers across the UK have issued an urgent "DO NOT EAT" warning amid food poisoning fears linked to salmonella.

A range of ready-to-eat foods including sandwiches, wraps and salads over food poisoning risks.

Sainsbury’s, Aldi, Pret A Manger, Marks & Spencer and Waitrose have all made the “precautionary measure” over salmonella fears.

What happens if you get salmonella?

Salmonella infection usually causes diarrhoea, fever and stomach cramps. Symptoms can begin six hours to six days after infection and can last up to a week.

Here we take a look at the full list of items recalled.

Chicken products rcalled 

Pret A Manger has removed all chicken from its menus over a "supplier food safety issue". 

Pret and Sainsbury's described the move as a "precautionary measure". 

A message from Pret A Manger's UK Twitter account in a reply to a customer on Wednesday (May 11) said: "Hi, Customer safety's always our priority, so we’ve temporarily removed chicken from our menu as a precautionary measure due to a supplier food safety issue. No Pret products have currently been affected and we're continuing to work with the supplier on the issue."

Sainsbury's wrote on Twitter: "We are recalling the majority of Sainsbury’s and Taste the Difference chicken sandwiches, chicken wraps, chicken sandwich platters and some of our cooked chicken." 

Aldi said: “The products listed above are being recalled due to the possible presence of Salmonella. Customers are asked to return this product to their nearest store, where a full refund will be given.

“We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your co-operation.”

More retailers are recalling products, as Waitrose said: “Waitrose is recalling the above products as a precautionary measure due to the potential presence of Salmonella, which may cause illness if consumed.

“No other Waitrose products are impacted.” 

The supermarket advised: “Do not consume. Package up item. Return the product to your local Waitrose & Partners branch for a refund.” 

Anyone looking for more advice should contact Waitrose Customer Care 0800 188 881 and option four.

Whereas Marks & Spencer said: “Customer safety is of paramount importance to Marks & Spencer and we take all issues regarding the production of our foods extremely seriously."

Anyone wanting to return items does not need a receipt and if unsure what to do, can call the supermarket's customer service line. 

Below is a full list of items being recalled amid salmonella fears.
