Steak-y situation: Woolworths shopper shares appalling find in local supermarket aisle
- Replies 5
As we navigate our local supermarket aisles, we trust that the food on the shelves is of the highest quality and displayed in a clean environment.
However, a recent incident at a Woolworths store left customers questioning this trust.
A Woolworths shopper took to social media to express his dismay after stumbling upon a 'disgraceful' scene in the shop's steak aisle.
The footage he shared painted a picture far from the standard we expect from one of Australia's leading grocery chains.
The video, which sparked widespread outrage, reveals a disturbing accumulation of mould, debris and dried liquids—all near the meat products.
'Scotch fillet with a side of mould, anyone?' the shopper quipped with sarcasm.
'And this was 10 am on a Sunday…turned me right off.'
The online community immediately reacted, echoing the shopper's disgust.
'It doesn't look like they've been cleaned or wiped down since the store opened. Yuck!' one commenter exclaimed.
'That is completely messed up. The condition that they keep our food and even the pricing of it. Something needs to be done about this,' another wrote.
'Oh no, that's gross,' one said.
'Yuck, we pay top dollar. For what, food poisoning?' a fourth commenter asked.
'The meat they offer up is garbage. Woolworths, you're a disgrace,' another concluded.
This incident raised important questions about food safety standards in supermarkets.
As of writing, Woolworths has not issued a statement regarding the incident.
However, Woolworths encouraged customers with any concerns about the cleanliness of their stores to address them with an in-store team member.
We urge our members to be vigilant when shopping for groceries.
Always inspect the food and its surroundings, and do not hesitate to report any issues.
It is our right as consumers to demand the highest food safety and cleanliness standards.
Remember, your health and well-being are paramount, and supermarkets like Woolworths are responsible for upholding the trust we place in them every time we shop.
