Following the salmonella scare in cornflakes and techina, according to a Channel 2 news expose, chickens with salmonella grown in Israel are not exported to Europe but are sold locally.

The Of Hagalil Company which sells chicken in Israel stated that the chicken sold in Israel does not exceed the allowed limit of Salmonella.  The Ministry of Health has forbidden the Prince Company from producing techina after finding high levels of salmonella in their product.
