Salmonella outbreak linked to pork pies produced by Adelaide bakery

SA Health has issued a warning linked to a selection of pork and ascot pies manufactured by a bakery in Victor Harbor after five people were struck down with salmonella earlier this week. Those affected by the salmonella outbreak were aged between 54 and 80, and four of them were hospitalised.

It was reported that the pork and ascot pies were sold by 30 retailers including independent supermarkets, delis and butchers across metropolitan Adelaide. The manufacturer has since stopped production of the affected pies and commenced a recall process.

SA Health are advising consumers to confirm the origin of any pork or ascot pies with the place of purchase prior to consumption. Any products affected by the recall should be discarded or returned to the place of purchase for refund.
