‘Coles takes the quality of all our products seriously. We have contacted the customer and will follow up with our supplier to investigate the matter,’ the Coles spokesperson said. 

‘As always we encourage customers to return any item they’re not 100% happy with to their nearest store for a full refund or replacement.’
