Adelaide Bakery Caught Up in Salmonella Scandal

An Adelaide bakery chain has been caught up in a salmonella scandal after a number of cases were linked to the stores.

A total of 21 cases of salmonella have been reported to SA Health and 14 people have been hospitalised after eating Vietnamese rolls at one of Angkor Bakery’s three stores.

According to Hospitality Magazine, SA Health inspectors have visited each of the three locations to take food and environmental samples that will be tested and assist in identifying the source of the contamination. The infection could be attributed to raw egg, butter, pate or barbecue pork ingredients.

Shop owner Lakhina Eung has apologised to customers who have been impacted by the outbreak.

“I hope the public and community still trusts us and we will try our best to do everything the council and SA Health require,” she told the magazine.

The business has shut all three stores while the investigation continues.
