This is a pretty good deal, considering that they are usually $9 Each.
However, Please ensure you don't pick-up ones that are being recalled.
Recalled products have MOST LIKELY already been cleared by Coles, but just something to keep in mind.

Never even heard of that salmonella
its Salmon with nutella
haha you made me laugh
Good deal but I wouldn't risk the chance of getting salmonella even with the unaffected ones
No.
comes with free Salmonella!!! (while stocks last)
Good for weighloss lol
Sick meals bro!
Hard pass (opposite of what will happen to your food if you get hit by the bacteria)
perfect - need to lose some weight quickly
Great Deal. Refunded the last lot for 100% profit 🤪
Same.
Bought some when 50% off and hadn't eaten them yet. Returned them the other day for full amount refund!!
I’ll pass
Damn. Best Before from 05/03/2020 – 04/10/2020 inclusive. That's a huge range of time. Hopefully Coles cleared it already.
They cleared shelves, yes.
Tried it a while back, wouldn't recommend them.
I've seen these before and didn't even consider buying them - the packaging design is atrocious, IMO it makes them look like pet food.
tell me you're serious dude FFS
Yup, I'm serious - that is some seriously poor graphic design.
You need your frozen meals to be hidden until the last minute when you extract your frozen mush for lunch?
Meal of choice for the poo joggers out there! Whole new meaning to going for a 'run'!
How did you find out this company has a recall problem?
I know that, already looked at the page before I commented….just that who goes checking on the food standards website before buying food items posted online or in the supermarkets?
I wondered if Ethso is in the food industry and had received the "memo".
if it was a 'real' issue it would have been all over the news… storm in teacup
@cobrakai: Must have missed this news cos it seems it was in the press quite a bit 6-7 days ago- http://tiny.cc/b9iqfz
@cobrakai: I was one of the lucky ones that got salmonella. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to lose weight! Couldn't eat for 4-5 days and I lost 3kg :D
These sorts of "public interest" items tend to get posted in the Australian subreddit, which I think is where I saw this.
Was definitely all over the news in Perth.
@whitelie: People still watch FTA TV news?
Salmonella is killed by proper cooking.
Obviously people are not re-heating them thoroughly. But how lazy must you be to eat frozen dinners?
I found out about the recall problem on their website as I was after the nutrition information for each of the products
ain't touching this thing
It's probably the safest time to buy it.
I’m with you. These ones would have gone through a more stringent process to be approved for sales.
Taste is ok. Not the best. 3/4 meals meet my daily macros. CBF meal prepping @ $4.50.

They recommend you discard it. However, nuke it long enough and it should be good.
YOLO.
Nuking can be uneven. Better to heat in oven after defrosting in microwave.
Seriously though some of the toxins produced by bacteria cannot be denatured by heating or would required heating that would render the food inedible.
Clicked for the comments. Not disappointed.
no interest in what ever the product is, just came for the comments.
Actually wasnt too bad. Better than ufoodz imo
Have had these and concur with Jimothy, found them better than youfoodz and frozen so last longer.
Had 2 of the meals already in the dates in question, have 2 now i need to return to coles, but bought via ebay annoyingly. Still alive though haha
No proof of purchase required for refund.
They still asked me both times for receipt but eventually got refund
My freezer was filled with these before the recall, mind you I ate most with no issues. But anyways, as for taste, they can be a bit bland, however, if you look at the ingredients, they are better than youfoodz and mymusclechef. Less preservatives and enhancers.
better get meatball from furniture store
Yo, these were all cleared out from my local supermarket. They had a sanitation problem with the food.
If they threw in free ambulance cover..would be a great deal
If they had problems to begin with, I don’t trust this brand at all. Nearly 50 people got sick.
The risk doesn’t justify the “deal”.
No stock at all at my local - unsure if its because they were all bought or because they weren't restocked after the recall.
I wouldn’t risk it very big problem with them at the moment :/
Salmonella Weltevreden Is dangerous
