#AceBreakingNews – NSW Health urges people to throw out Riviera Farms spinach from Costco after nine people across Sydney hospitalised

At least nine people from four separate households across Sydney have needed medical attention after eating packaged fresh spinach, believed to be accidentally contaminated, according to New South Wales Health.

People are being urged to throw out any packets of Riviera Farms-brand spinach, sold through retailer Costco, with an expiry date of December 16 this year.

NSW Health said the product was “not safe to consume and people who have it should throw it out”.

It has urged anyone who has experienced any unusual and severe symptoms after eating the spinach to seek immediate medical attention by visiting their nearest emergency department due to toxic reactions.

State health authorities said some of the reported symptoms have been severe and include “hallucinations, delirium, rapid heartbeat and blurred vision”.

A Riviera Farms spokesperson said the product may have been “contaminated with a weed which can have health consequences if consumed”.

“As soon as we were advised of the possible weed contamination from one of our customers, we immediately advised them to remove our impacted spinach from their shelves, and contacted state health and federal food authorities,” the spokesperson said. 

“There is no suggestion, and to our knowledge no possibility, that any other products have been impacted by this weed.

“Riviera Farms has been in the business of providing fresh food since the 1880s, and we are saddened to confirm that we have likely had our first-ever significant contamination incident.”

NSW Health said it does not yet know the full extent of the product’s distribution and is working with the NSW Food Authority, as well as other jurisdictions, to investigate the contamination further.

Riviera Farms’ head office is based in Victoria.
