Horrified shopper shares stomach-churning footage of her chicken schnitzel mixed together with ‘glue’
- A horrified shopper shared a stomach-churning video to Facebook on Monday
- She pulled the chicken schnitzel apart to reveal a wet and slimy-looking texture
- Urged other customers to steer clear of the crumbed poultry product
A Woolworths shopper has been left horrified after she opened a packet of chicken schnitzel to find it had a sickening paste-like consistency.
The woman shared a stomach-churning video on the supermarket’s Facebook page on Monday urging customers to steer clear of the crumbed poultry product, which cost $7.50 from the deli section.
In the footage, the disgusted consumer pulled the chicken apart to reveal the wet and slimy glue-like texture of the meat she bought just one day earlier from a retailer in Butler, north of Perth.

‘Do not buy chicken schnitzels from Butler, WA,’ she warned, adding a series of vomit emojis.
‘Bought these this afternoon and as you can see, its some sort of cheap-looking chicken paste.’
The video garnered more than 160 views.
The retail giant replied to the post immediately and apologised for the poor-quality product and asked her to contact them directly with more information.
A Woolworths spokeswoman told Daily Mail Australia the business is following up on the complaint.

‘We pride ourselves on providing high quality products to our customers and regret this wasn’t the case on this occasion,’ she said.
‘We’re following the matter up with our chicken supplier and the store team to understand how the product made it through our quality control measures.’
‘We’ve contacted the customer to apologise and will organise an appropriate resolution.’
She also said the retailer encourages customers with similar issues to contact their local store directly for a refund, or to exchange the product.
In June, a woman discovered an animal fetus inside her Woolworths grapes
In early June, another Woolworths shopper was shocked when she found a mouse fetus hiding among her red grapes.
‘Emptied your seedless red grapes from the bag into a bowl and found a baby mouse/fetus ugly specimen amongst them’, she said.
‘No further words needed…’
A Woolworths spokesperson said they would investigate the incident.
