Woolworths recalls viennas and cold meats

FOOD safety is of paramount importance to Woolworths and they take all issues regarding the production of their food seriously.

Woolworths has a team of food scientists and technologists who proactively manage food safety, in addition to their independent food safety testing and auditing, to prevent microbial contamination of food. This testing includes Listeria.

Following the recent announcement by the Department of Health on the source of the listeriosis outbreak, and as an additional precautionary measure, they are recalling a limited number of viennas and cold meats.

Customers who have any of these listed products should return the products to their local store for a full refund:
