According to Woolworths, the sell by date on these affected products are 27 May 2023.

‘’While the cheese may not be obvious through taste or visible in the product, we are removing all the products from our shelves. Customers who have an allergy to cow’s milk may experience an adverse reaction to trace amounts of milk protein,’’ it said in a statement.

‘’Our Chicken Vienna’s with the sell by date 27 May 2023 are produced in four variants, outlined below, and are sold in two countries; South Africa and Botswana,’’ it added.

The retailer said customers who have purchased the product should return the product to their local store for a full refund.

‘’Woolworths prides itself on exceptionally high standards, and we go to great lengths, with very strict protocols within a rigorous food safety management process, to ensure all food we produce, package and sell is the quality our customers expect. Food safety is critically important to us, and the wellbeing of our customers is our first priority,’’ it said.
