In
the
interests
of
shopper
safety,
ALDI
Australia
is
withdrawing
from
sale,
its
Emporium
Selection
Brie

(Product

the
Emporium
Selection
brand
with
a
use
by
date
up
to
and
including
8
March,
2013.
This
decision
is
a
precautionary
measure
taken
by
ALDI
Australia
following
the
Jindi
cheese
company
voluntarily
recalling
its
cheeses
after
reports
of
listeria
infections
that
are
currently
under
investigation.
ALDI
Australia
puts
its
customers’
safety
first
and
this
withdrawal
has
been
issued
as
a
precautionary
measure
due
to
a
possible
contamination,
and
these
products
will
remain
off
the
shelves
until
further
investigation
by
the
ACCC
has
been
completed.
Our
suppliers
have
a
responsibility
to
meet
stringent
product
specifications
for
quality
and
ALDI
Australia
undertakes
regular
testing
to
ensure
all
of
our
goods
continue
to
meet
statutory
requirements
regarding
Food
Safety
as
a
minimum.
Continuously
reviewing
our
product
ranges
ensures
International
and
Australian
Best
Practice,
including
all
local
requirements;
and
we
will
continue
to
remove
any
product
from
sale
if
it
is
identified
as
not
meeting
our
strict
standards
and
we
encourage
our
customers
to
return
the
cheeses
as
soon
as
possible
to
their
nearest
store
for
a
full
refund.
All
queries
on
the
investigation
should
be
directed
to
Jindi
Cheese
Company.
