Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? Some chickens from Belgium sent to the Netherlands had small cuts from the machine that holds them during slaughter.

What's happening? The chickens were hurt by a part of the machine that clamps their wings. This is not allowed.

Does this affect me? If you bought whole chickens from Belgium in the Netherlands, check them for cuts.

What should I do? Ask your butcher or shop if the chicken is safe to eat. If unsure, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
