This is a day old. But if you see this, are in NSW and have those specific pies check the date on them

Is ‘metal contamination’ like when a synth keyboardist is included in the otherwise ‘heavy’ band?

[–] skittlebrau@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I’d say it’s more like when a metal guitarist infiltrates a pop band, since in this particular case the metal is considered to be the unwanted bit.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The chance of metal contamination has led to supermarket giant Woolworths issuing a recall in New South Wales for a batch of a common Christmas treat.

Woolworths said the affected product is Shortcrust Summer Berry Mince Pies, sold in six-packs, with a “best before” date of 13 June 2024.

“Woolworths is recalling Shortcrust Summer Berry Mince Pies 360g as a precaution due to potential metal contamination,” a statement said.

“Woolworths takes product safety seriously and apologises for any inconvenience caused by this recall.”

Woolworths is asking customers to check the fruit mince pies put away in their cupboard for Christmas and only respond to the recall if it is the specific variety with the best before date cited.

A full refund can be obtained by returning the items to a Woolworths store.
