The Consumer Council of Fiji is urging consumers to check the quality of meat products and the hygiene of its storage before purchasing meat or frozen fruits and vegetables.

A survey was carried out by the Consumer Council of Fiji in 22 supermarkets whereby it was found that rotten fruits and vegetables including stale meat was being sold.
