We have just learnt that Australia has taken a deep dive into a garlic bread shortage. This catastrophic event has been catalysed by George Weston Foods – the company that supplies garlic bread to some of Australia’s biggest pizza chains, including Domino’s and Pizza Hut.

Both of which have suspended production of garlic bread after pieces of plastic Teflon coating were found in a margarine filter.

The magical bread of the gods has already been recalled from all Domino’s stores nationwide.

This serious stuff. We all know that: garlic bread is LYFE.

The company released a statement explaining the recall:

“The integrity, quality and safety of the food products we serve is extremely important to us and, with our suppliers, we have extensive quality control systems in place,” a representative said.

“We are sorry for the inconvenience. We will bring our garlic bread back to our menu as soon as possible, but only when our supplier assures us it is appropriate to do so.”

We’ll be waiting.
