Public told not to buy food items exposed to flood waters

Consumers advised to be cautious as food items may be damaged or have expired.
makanan_1RAUB: The public have been advised not to buy food items exposed to flood waters, especially canned food, which are auctioned at cheap prices as they could either be damaged or expired.
Pahang Cooperatives, Entrepreneurship and Consumerism Committee chairman Shahiruddin Ab Moin said many traders whose shops were affected by the recent floods were selling their goods, mainly canned food items.
“It is undeniable that the goods are sold cheap to finish stock, but consumers need to be careful for fear the products might be damaged or expired.
“No one knows whether canned food items submerged in flood waters are still in good condition or otherwise,” he told reporters after visiting the Pasar Besar Raub here yesterday.
He urged traders not to be overly concerned about profits alone.
“If their products lead to food poisoning, they are subject to legal action,” said Shahiruddin, adding that he had directed the relevant authorities to carry out indefinite checks to ensure goods sold cheap and auctioned did not affect the health of consumers.
