NSW: Band-aid topped pizza lands shop on name and shame list
SYDNEY, Dec 9 AAP - A pizza topped with a band-aid has landed a southern Sydney takeaway
store on the NSW government's name and shame list of food safety infringements.
Dominos Pizza on Carter Road in Menai was fined $1100 for accidentally serving the
bandaid in the pizza in August.
All up 317 businesses now appear on the name and shame list on the Food Authority website,
with 502 fines issued.
Primary Industries Ian Macdonald said the list was designed to stop individuals and
companies that cut corners on food safety for consumers.
"The fines have been for a range of breaches including dirty premises, allowing pests
into food preparation areas and inappropriate temperature control of foods," Mr Macdonald
said in a statement.
The website, www.foodauthority.nsw.gov.au, has had over 1.4 million visitors since
it was launched in July.
