Kouga Municipality appeals to all residents, including schools, daycare centres, and community facilities, to remain vigilant following reports of tampered food products being found in certain areas of the country. These incidents involve allegations of strange or foreign objects being discovered in packets of chips, snacks, or other food items.
Kouga Residents Must Exercise Caution
Public safety is our top priority, and residents are strongly urged to carefully inspect all snack packets and food items for any signs of tampering or unusual contents before consumption. Should anything suspicious be identified, it is crucial that the product is not consumed, as it could pose potential health and safety risks.
Ensure Safety
To ensure the safety of your household and the wider community, residents are encouraged to:
Check the packaging of all snacks and food products for irregularities, including tears, punctures, or signs of tampering.
Inspect the contents thoroughly for any foreign objects or substances.
Immediately discard any item that appears suspicious or unsafe.
Suspected Tampering
In the event of suspected tampering or counterfeit food products, members of the public are advised to report the matter promptly to their nearest South African Police Service (SAPS) station for further investigation.
