McCain Australia: Urgent recall for McCain’s 400g Cheese & Bacon Pizza Pockets sold at Woolworths, Coles

A popular frozen snack has been stripped from the supermarket shelves after an unsuspecting consumer found plastic and metal in their food.

McCain Australia issued an immediate nationwide recall of their 400g Cheese & Bacon Pizza Pockets once they were made aware of the discovery.

The popular pizza snacks have been sold at Woolworths, Coles, and independent retailers, including IGA nationally and online.

The microwavable pizza pockets should not be eaten, and instead can be returned to the supermarket they were purchased from for a full refund.
