Kusje Supersonic March 6, 2018 Share March 6, 2018 A spokesman for Dairy Farm Singapore said both Cold Storage and Giant do not import rock melons from New South Wales. "Giant currently gets their supplies from Indonesia while Cold Storage is working with a supplier from Western Australia. As a precautionary measure, the shipments from Australia will come with a certificate of analysis on micro testing for listeria to ensure they have been safely processed and are free from contamination," the spokesman said. http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/rockmelons-sold-here-not-from-listeria-affected-australian-region-say-supermarkets?xtor=CS11-86 All denying that they carry NSW rock melons... But how come the Dairy Farm spokesman didn't say anything about Jasons Market Place? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atrecord Supersonic March 6, 2018 Share March 6, 2018 Don't worry la. So many Aussies are that shit and only 3 died. Should be much lower chance for us here in SG. I just checked my redmart purchase history. Last time I ate rock melon was in q1 of 2017 after receiving some Ang bao money. After that it was a little too expensive for me already so I am safe. I could never stomach the cost of cut fruits or even fruit juice outside. For one small cup, I can almost buy the entire fruit home. Fruit juice is also very unhealthy and full of sugars. Dun remind me about the price leh... is bo bian doc advised better to eat more veggies and fruits every meal, so LL pay for cut fruits during lunch. only on Sat, at SGH, bought papaya from kopitiam, and my parents looked at it and were shocked at how small each piece was... I think go NTUC buy one whole papaya can sell for >$10 at these cut fruits stalls.. oh, if buy those mango, kiwi, etc. lagi No choice if want to eat fruits when eat outside, even the cost of cut fruits really cannot make it. So dont buy those ''exotic'' fruits from fruit stall lo, like dragonfruit, rock melon, pear etc which one small piece could cost as much as $2! Just buy papaya, watermelon and honeydew. you're right. Can add pineapple to the list. But some stalls got 2 types of pineapples, one of which is more expensive - dunno for what reason... Australia melon cannot eat vietnam ones err... those melons meh? i tot papayas? 木瓜妞牛奶 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxus-MIFA9 Supersonic March 6, 2018 Share March 6, 2018 WTF, KNN i bought and ate 2 whole melon from SS just last week. But I always wash them before I cut. Pls take note better dont buy any at the moment, even they claim recall completed, better be safe than sorry. Kiasu kiasi a bit. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/rockmelons-listeria-affected-source-australia-sold-in-singapore-10015508 SINGAPORE: Two consignments of rockmelons imported from a grower that has been implicated in a deadly outbreak of human listeriosis in Australia were sold in Singapore between Feb 12 and Mar 2, the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA) said on Monday (Mar 5). The rockmelons from these consignments were sold at Sheng Siong supermarket outlets and wet markets. AVA has since worked with importers to remove the remaining unsold rockmelons from the affected consignments. Upon AVA’s notification, Sheng Siong voluntarily removed the affected rockmelons, it added. "The recall has been completed. There has been no further import of rockmelons from the affected grower since, and import has been suspended," AVA said in a press release. The rockmelons originated from a specific grower in New South Wales, Australia in February, AVA said, adding that it has also taken samples of locally sold rockmelons from other sources for food safety tests, including testing for listeria. AVA added that all rockmelons currently available for sale were not implicated in the recall. Advertisement AVA said in the press release that it worked with importers to remove the remaining unsold fruit after the Food Standards Australia and New Zealand (FSANZ) notified them of a recall in Australia of whole rockmelons. It is also following up with FSANZ for updates on the case. AVA advised consumers who suspect that they may have purchased the affected rockmelons within the affected time period not to consume it. Those who do not feel well after consumption should also seek medical attention. WHAT IS LISTERIA? Listeriosis is a bacterial infection caused by Listeria monocytogenes, which is found in the environment, such as soil, water, and faeces. The incubation period of listeria ranges from 3 to 70 days. A person with mild listeriosis usually has fever and muscle aches, preceded by diarrhoea or other gastrointestinal symptoms. Pregnant women, the elderly or individuals with a weakened immune system are at highest risk of serious disease, which could include brain and heart infections or complications in the foetus. Listeriosis is treatable with antibiotics if diagnosed early. The key to preventing listeria lies in safe handling, cooking and consumption of food, AVA said. "As rock melons are typically eaten raw, thorough washing of the raw fruits is advisable before consumption. Consumers should seek medical attention as early as possible if symptoms appear within 70 days after consuming Australian rockmelon," AVA said.

Windwaver Turbocharged March 6, 2018 Share March 6, 2018 Saw newsflash of this, but didn't know details. Now this gets me worried... even though i didn't buy any rock melon recently. Problem is i do try to eat fruit during lunch everyday, and I'm not sure if the fruit sellers will practise strict hygiene precaution like thorough washing before they cut the fruits to sell You never see sellers dig their nose then cut your fruit afterwards? I've seen it many times ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
