Supermarkets get it wrong yet again
Supermarkets are BILLION £ / $ BUSINESS'S. So why do they get it wrong so often.
Supermarkets in the UK have issued YET ANOTHER urgent warnings to customers over possible health risks from items bought in stores.
Morrisons, Aldi, Lidl, Tesco and Sainsbury’s are among the supermarkets urging customers not to eat food items.
Food allergies, incorrect packaging and choking hazards are among the reasons behind a number of product recalls.
We've rounded up the latest products to be recalled.
If you have bought any of the items mentioned below, you need to be aware of these possible health risks. These reports are almost weekly where supermarkets have mislabeled items or included items that are simply not on the ingredience listed and one does wonder how the hell this happens in a multi national multi billion $ business ?
Incompetence. Bad staffing levels. Bad staff training. Staff not paying attention. Management who clearly haven't a clue but have a degree but absolutely no experience. A company that is inclined to put profit above anything else.
Don't care as this is all extra publicity even if negative.
So why are they not following legal and moral guidelines concerning food stuff ?
Why is this a constant thing ?
With horse meat in so many big companies meals a few years ago and none of them had examined the meat they were buying to check it was original and as bought - and clearly, TRUST is something we CANNOT have in the food chain and longer.
