Australia – Canberra Mrs Kim’s Donuts in Kingston closes amid widespread reports of food poisoning
A recently opened Kingston doughnut store has closed amid widespread reports it is the source of dozens of food poisoning complaints across the ACT.
Reports emerged at the weekend on social media of locals experiencing vomiting and nausea after eating food from Mrs Kim’s Donuts.
The doughnut bar opened in July 2021 but has now closed its doors and removed its Facebook and Instagram pages.
The business’s Google search results now have it listed as permanently closed.
ACT Health has not confirmed it is investigating Mrs Kim’s but says it has received around 130 complaints about a single business.
