Comments attributed to Woolworths:
'All Macro baby food in this type of packaging is x-rayed'
'Our initial investigation shows the product was not spoilt which indicated the blade entered the packaging not long before the customer found it' - which seems to imply malicious contamination but difficult to see how someone would not notice a slit and leaking product!
Either way, time for all Woolworths suppliers to check and ensure their blade control procedures are 'belt and braces'!
