Bought myself a lovely set of chicken legs to nomnom on a hangover sunday.

Opened the vacuum sealed package today, which is the last day to use it, and a pugnant smell of rotten eggs filled the kitchen.

Yum!

Chicken in bin and something else in the oven.

(For those who don't know, rotten egg smell on chicken = very bad, salmonella bad)

Didn't take long to send the company a nice lil letter about their storing etc, i mean, they advert themselves as safe and fresh and are one of the leading meat distributors in finland, so this is rather unacceptable i feel.

They better send me something else then a "thanks for your info" letter :eek:

Did you keep the receipt?

If you go to the store and put in an official written complaint (provided legislation is same for finland as it is england), you can get a refund from them too, often a replacement chicken too and possibly some instore vouchers to keep you nice and fuzzy.

Then you complain to the actual manufacturers but chances are, they'll just fob you off with blaming the instore fridges etc.

I go it the other way around, first the manufacturer, then if they say it's the stores fault, i go to the store with the manufacturer note.

The aim here is maximum trouble ofcourse, and some chicken compensation :D

Biggest issue i got is that it ruined my sunday lazy chicken and i reall can't be arsed to get new chicken from the store.

Rotten chickens don't ruin Sunday dinners, silly people do. =)

Always best to hatch your own chickens. Then you get the satisfaction of slaughtering it yourself & drinking the blood...

Customer service contacted back will investigate, most likely storage failure, will send results and a compensation voucher :D
