Food Lion - Returned expired product
I went to return a product that i consumed that was out of date. I was given a refund but the way the associate Marizta handled the sistuation was not at all professional.
I even told the associates that " if i would have gotten sick after eating the product ( clif oatmeal bar) expired in may 2017..then i could have sued Food Lion for selling unwholesome expired food to a custumer. They was rude, uncaring, and laughed about the situation instead of taking responsibility and apologizing. I work for retail myself andis also a secret shopper.
I will be leaving a review for this store. Store #2591 goldsboro nc
Reason of review: Poor customer service.

I went to Food Lion to buy chicken. My sinuses are bad.
The cashier warned me that the meat was rotten. The chicken was bloody and when I put it to my nose , I liked to have got sick.
I reported them the next day to health department and they made Food Lion throw out the rotten chicken.
Food Lion has been in the news in the past for having rancid meat.
I was one of their shoppers, but now I am scared to death of their meats.
They need to have the health department watch constantly.
I'm sorry for your experience With the chicken Larry unfortunately what a lot of people don't realize is almost all of your retailers do not handle chicken at the store level any more and just have to go with the printed shelf life on the product. I've seen it happen on multiple occasions where the product gets warm during transport or is picked up and left on an aisle on the store to be returned to the cool case by another customer or an uneducated employee. Hopefully they apologized for the inconvenience and tried to correct the issue.
You're not going to get sick of an Health Cliff Bar - worst case scenario - it would be stale. As far as being a secret shopper, the fact that you even post to sites like pissedconsumer.com should be enough for that job to be taken from you.
