Manchester United Receives One-Star Food Hygiene Rating Following Raw Chicken Incident
Manchester United has been given a one-star food hygiene rating as investigations continue into allegations that corporate guests were served raw chicken. The incident came to light after numerous guests reported becoming ill following an event at Old Trafford. Trafford Council is currently investigating the matter, and Manchester United has launched an internal investigation as well.
Previously, Manchester United had a five-star food hygiene rating on the government’s website. However, the latest update reveals that the club now has a one-star rating, indicating that “major improvement is needed.” While the cleanliness and condition of facilities and building were deemed “good,” the club fell short in terms of hygienic food handling and the management of food safety.
Manchester United has taken the incident seriously and has implemented measures to address the failures. The kitchen staff has been rebriefed on food safety requirements, kitchen procedures have been reviewed, and an external audit of all kitchens has been commissioned. The club aims to maintain the highest culinary standards and has increased the frequency of audits to provide assurance to fans and customers.
It is worth noting that Manchester United generates significant revenue from hosting events and providing hospitality at Old Trafford. However, the stadium has faced various issues recently, including a leaking roof and signs of decay. Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who holds a 25% stake in the club, is believed to prioritize improving the club’s infrastructure.
