The retailer pledged to follow up with its meat production partners and urged others with the same issue to contact their local store 'If a customer is able to return a fresh produce they are not happy with, we'll refund and replace it,' he said.
This is not the first time Woolworths customers complained about meat appearing to be stuck together.
Another woman recently took to social media to complain that her Woolworths 'eye fillets' were falling apart.
'So when did Woolworths start using meat glue to make this atrocity of an 'eye fillet' steak?' she wrote in a Facebook group on January 8.
The shopper shared a photo of the steaks sitting in a fry pan, riddled with holes.

Is this story from the Wayback Machine? Woolworths? I used to love that store. The hot dogs and French fries were the best. Also a great fabric department, and in Alaska in the ‘80s they had the best souvenir area. And Evening In Paris perfume. :)
Don’t buy meet at a store from the 1960s, fancypants.
I guess they hung around a lot longer in Aus, or is this just a store with the same name?
Yes, I recall the lunch counter at woolworths as a kid.
Met my wife while working there in 1978 (South of Boston, store #298), she is still a bargain. When we visited Scotland in 2008 they still had them but they were closing down.
Scotch fillet is a racist slur.
Scots are stereotyped as notoriously cheap
It is in Australia.
“..literally glued together!”
As disturbing and unethical as that sounds, is it against the law?
Maybe we’re getting fooled over here in the states too.
Well, some of us are getting fooled.
Parts is Parts.
scotch fillet is held together with scotch tape... 😁
That was my first thought too!!
It seems that Woolworths is an Australian chain completely unrelated to FW Woolworth which many of us grew up with.
Woolworth is still open?

Ha ha. That was my question. Woolworth’s? You mean the store that would have the parakeets and little turtles for sale in the back of the store? That Woolworth?
Look for marks from where the jokey was hitting.
The similarly named Woolworths supermarkets in Australia and New Zealand are operated by Australia's largest retail company, Woolworths Group, a separate company with no historical links to the F. W. Woolworth Company
I haven’t been to a Woolworth’s in a coon’s age. Still remember the dairy fountain, with the stools.
I didn’t think there were any more either.
Put some “Navy Gravy” (Ketchup) on it; you’ll never think twice about it.
Maybe if you put and egg, bacon and cheese on it.
Sounds like those cheap two to a pack so called filet mignon you can buy in grocery stores here, held together by meat glue and a rancid bacon strip. Ripoff
Ooops, wrong thread.
