10 to 15 years sounds a bit light for literally threatening the safety of millions of people, making the entire nation paranoid of consuming food, and making tonnes of said food go to waste all the while endangering the hundreds of people who work extremely hard everyday in order to provide those produce of their income.

Depends on the ethical spectrum one follows. I, along with many others, follow utilitarian ethic, which measures every action by the total amount of good it leads to. This is in direct benefit of the society and pays dividends to keep a healthy society. I also follow the libertarian ethic, which is not a universal ethic, which is that any action without consent is an act of violence, unless they are themselves the perpetrators of violence. Gandhian ethic cuts out the caveat for enacting violence even against a violator. There is also a deontological ethical theory or Kantian ethics. And there is ethics of religious type.
Whoever did this is sick and sadistic. I hope they can trace it back to whoever did this. Trace the brand then find out which farm provided this and I'm sure it's from some low-life rascal there. Svhssbshs im triggered and what a fudging waste of food. Little did that low-life know, this effects people's well-being. He/she/them better get caught.
I dont think its the farmers who did it, more like the packaging people. Farmers are already losing millions due to the drought. Trust me, my uncle is a farmer.
if they go to jail their heads will get turned into balloons from the bashings trust me., id like to take a claw hammer to each of their skulls and kill them tbh, id sleep that night peacefully.
Anyone that had contact with the strawberries is a suspect. From the pickers to the packers to the stackers. Then whats not to say the people that bought the berry's didn't do it themselves? Like trying to find a needle in a haystack.
I'm not saying I agree with this, I don't, it's horrible, it shouldn't happen. However, as a person who's worked on these strawberry farms in Australia, I've seen their owners and staff hire hundreds of Asian workers and treat them like slaves, and the same goes for the backpackers travelling through, who work here for their Visa extensions. I was horrified to see the way staff were treated. The Australian farmers aren't governed on how they treat their staff. So I can only think this is a horrific tactic by the workers to get back at the farmers. The authorities MUST review WHY this is happening, and not react on the action alone. I'm very confident if the Authorities looked into this, they'd find a different world for how the Australian farmers treat young people trying to experience Australian Life in poor conditions. But as always, ALL News Outlets only report one-side stories.
8lackbeard True but they need to be deported back to Asia to a very long prison stay with no chance of re-entry into any other country. It does not give them the right to fatally harm innocent people.
Rinsing fruit before eating merely gets dirt and particles off the outside surface of the fruit. The needles are inside the fruit and could be contaminated with who knows what.
Seriously......STRAWBERRIES..... one of the most liked foods and you have to do that?!?!? What kind of person does this not even food is safe anymore!!!!
There’s probably only like what, ten, twenty contaminated strawberries?? But hundreds of thousands are getting thrown out due to fear and no one accepting any fruits
All it takes is one guy going to a grocery store, putting ONE needle in each pack of strawberries, and going home. Mass panic and media will do the rest and before you know it, millions have been wasted and a ton of food gets thrown away.

Almost all food supply chains are vulnerable to this kind of activity. Could spark a new way to conduct trade war, by contaminating a competitors products.
Blah That would result in having needles in compost. Unless you go through the extra step of removing all the needles, you might accidentaly stab yourself while working with it. No composting company would want to buy strawberries that could cause them to get sued.
FalconSky I still think they could find a use for it. If you smash all the strawberries until it’s practically a juice the needles would be easy to remove.
aw but then the wasted ones might be eaten by small animals, and since they may be small animals, the needles can really hurt them. So much wasted product :((
For myself, I'd buy them anyway. I want to help the farmers, so I'd just cut them up before eating them. There are a lot of things you can do with strawberries wihout getting hurt. Why dont they sell them to all places that serve alcohol. Strawberry daquries are wonderful. I'm just concerned aboit the kids eating them b4 parents get a chance to cut them. Maybe when they catch all the rat-bags that are doing this, they could keep all the fruit with needles & let them eat them. Those people should definitely have to pay farmers back until they are fully paid, even if it takes the rest of their lives. Putting them in jail wont do much for the fsrmers to get their money back. I say get them a job & make at least half their pay be given to farmers. Putting them in jail will mainly mean that tax payers will be paying for them to be there, including farmer's taxes that will also be used to feed the mongrels. Make them pay FINANCIALLY to garmers. They could be given 2 or more jobs, leaving them too tired to do anything else but sleep & work.
Honestly with so many people now watching for weird behaviour around the fruit row now I see a lot of copycats getting their heads bashed in in the near future.
Really pissed off about this. It's horrible how someone could insert an object into someone's food that could potentially kill them or cause serious internal injury...but they're also messing with the farmers livelihood. It's creating fear and sabotaging all their hard work, this is totally unfair! I hope they catch the idiots doing this and lock them up for good, COWARDS! It broke my heart hearing that young girl find "Another " needle in a strawberry. So sorry!!!
@In All Honesty 'novel' lmao, this is barely a paragraph. do you need your comments broken down into two sentences a page like children's books? 'i am mad that there are needles in the strawberries'. there, did you understand that? i would love to see you struggle through an actual book. it'd be hilarious.
@In All Honesty, have you ever read a novel? Or do you just read children's books? Because this is hardly anything. And why are you making fun of someone who is pointing out how disgusting this is? Is it because you're a sad potato and you've done something this stupid and thought it was funny? Just wondering.
It is probably going to rust with all the acidity in the fruit... so dun think it would be safe to eat... and you really dunno where the needle been to....
It may not seem like a lot on paper. However, take note of where you are in life right now and then time the next 15 years. It's a huge chunk of your life. And it would feel like a hell of a lot more if you were locked in a concrete cage instead of walking free on the streets.
Its an attempted murder ffs. 15 years in jail wouldn't give justice to the victims. Should be hang to death penalty for this hideous crime. Who the fack would have heart to put needle in foods? Only crazy psychopath
@@chris-cs8et Unless they bought there detector at a dollar store it should detect any metal or alloy, they should invest in one and put it on the conveyor belt just before packaging.
Because these people, normally suffered they whole life, and think that, by causing the suffering of other people, they will get better... Such idiots...
People who assume that there are no risks in the food that they buy from shops are silly enough to start with, but to pull the plug on the whole crop is ridiculous.
The explanation is that moronic pranksters are placing needles inside of bananas and strawberries as some sort of practical joke/copycat prank. This has led to tonnes of strawberries being dumped and wasted, and a national food scare. Strawberry farmers' lives are also at stake, and campaigners are urging to public to continue to buy strawberries (and cut them up before consumption) to support the nations farmers' livelihoods.
Dont even eat the strawberry. The needle could be contaminated with tetanus or something. With a needle inside food, and the needle coming from an unknown source, then its a biohazard
Can't drink your fast food soda without a straw? First world problems. Straws kill thousands of animals each year. Because of spoiled lazy POS. So good.
Grand City, Use your brain. Do you really think those huge piles with I'm going to estimate at probably 10-20 thousand strawberries all have needles stuck in them? Regardless they weren't and haven't been anywhere near a store. Those piles were farmers dumping their harvest after the pricing pretty much hit nothing and loads of people weren't buying strawberries any more.
Maybe you should use your brain, you think thousand of strawberrys thrown all together in a unhygienic place in a middle of nature arent going to be full of insects, parasites, ect?
Only the strawberries on the bottom are touching the ground. You do know they come from outside, right? Pick out the bad ones if you find them; that's what farmers do.
I remember when I was a child some sick individual was putting nails at the bottom of slides in my city. This reminded me of that. What a time to be alive.
When you really think about it, it's impossible for such a large scale sabotage to be an individual's work. Who stands to benefit the most from a fear towards natural fruits? Obviously, it's someone who profits from the production of processed foods! The investigators just don't want to get their hands dirty, they're sharp enough to deduce this kind of thing instantly.
Obviously, some people will duplicate the "prank" after hearing about it, but for it to be so widespread and at such a large scale, do you really believe some people with nothing to gain from it did that? Procuring millions of needles alone is not something someone with nothing to gain from it would do, let alone painstakingly hiding them in fruits. Additionally, they'll need to put the food back into circulation.
It is generally really good to grow your own food regardless to avoid stuff like this.. recalls are a grocery store nightmare I always get lazy and forget this but yeah living life is just a numbers game.. gotta be careful and always watch your back
To be honest though, even if they made jam out of it, I wouldn’t eat it as the needle may possibly risk the sanitation of the strawberries themselves due to the acid in the fruit causing them to rust
if a needle is found then the strawberry wouldn't be used to make the jam... and really the needles are inserted when hey are in the shop, if the jam maker take the strawberries straight from the farmer then there will be no needle concerns.
@@WeiYinChan erm... I don't really think so, as it is believed that the needles have been inserted by people picking and packaging the needles into the punnet. By the time it reaches the hands the hands of the jam makers, rust from the needle would have already contaminated the strawberries.
Sirius Snazz again, if there is needle in a strawberry the jam maker would just not put that one in. And most cases are copy cat cases, the ones who got caught were mostly kids, so no, most of the contamination happens inside the shop
We used to buy a brand of mixed vegetables for stir fry. I don't remember what grocer sold it but on two occasions there were rusted partials of safety pins in the peas casing. They we're safety pins with the hinge and lock broken off essentially leaving behind a needle.
This is horrible. Hope they rethink the condemns and give this people a serious punishment. Not only the people life is in danger but the entire industry.
You can use a strong magnet to detect if there's any needles inside your strawberries, I just put a sewing needle in a strawberry & I could feel the attraction of the magnet pulling the needle, it's a better solution than just hoping.
What kind of severe sadist does that? Just by the amount of Innocents affected, farmers affected and wastage of food and natural resources itself, this demands maximum punishment. These kinda people with sick mentality should not be shown any mercy

Maybe when they catch all the rat-bags that are doing this, they could keep all the fruit with needles & let them eat them. Those people should definitely have to pay farmers back until they are fully paid, even if it takes the rest of their lives. Putting them in jail wont do much for the fsrmers to get their money back. I say get them a job & make at least half their pay be given to farmers. Putting them in jail will mainly mean that tax payers will be paying for them to be there, including farmer's taxes that will also be used to feed the mongrels. Make them pay FINANCIALLY to garmers. They could be given 2 or more jobs, leaving them too tired to do anything else but sleep & work.
G B me too but the shops are starting to get rid of them. My local woolies and coles are both out of strawberries
They could make very finely strained strawberry puree to use for jams or other fruit products.
The needle might contain blood of a HIV/Hepatitis infected person though.
G B if a needle gets in what else can get in then? Poison? 😰
Yes true I agree (Qantas did something like that) but many people are still wary and there’s always gonna be some paranoia about risks unfortunately.
Trying to catch whoever’s responsible is gonna be like trying to find a needle in a haystack. No pun intended. 🤔🧐
Honestly with so many people now watching for weird behaviour around the fruit row now I see a lot of copycats getting their heads bashed in in the near future.
'pun not intended'
don't lie lmao
The fact that the government calls the guy who started this an idiot is amazing and I love you.
Ohh, I thought my acupuncturist was nuts when she stuck strawberries in my leg
r/woooosh
Lord Bolton -You took this literally and Im nuts ? lol
Lord Bolton Lmao do you get jokes??
@Lord Bolton whooooosh
In Australia, the strawberry bites you!
WTF?! SUCH A WASTE OF FOOD!
Really pissed off about this. It's horrible how someone could insert an object into someone's food that could potentially kill them or cause serious internal injury...but they're also messing with the farmers livelihood. It's creating fear and sabotaging all their hard work, this is totally unfair! I hope they catch the idiots doing this and lock them up for good, COWARDS! It broke my heart hearing that young girl find "Another " needle in a strawberry. So sorry!!!
@In All Honesty 'novel' lmao, this is barely a paragraph. do you need your comments broken down into two sentences a page like children's books? 'i am mad that there are needles in the strawberries'. there, did you understand that?
i would love to see you struggle through an actual book. it'd be hilarious.
@In All Honesty, have you ever read a novel? Or do you just read children's books? Because this is hardly anything. And why are you making fun of someone who is pointing out how disgusting this is? Is it because you're a sad potato and you've done something this stupid and thought it was funny? Just wondering.
what kind of sick person would do this? this almost seems like some otherworldly occurrence from a parallel universe
i agree with cutting up strawberries before eating them to support farmers but won’t the needle compromise the sanitation of the strawberry?
It is probably going to rust with all the acidity in the fruit... so dun think it would be safe to eat... and you really dunno where the needle been to....
caitlin barnett I think cutting it up is to be able to see whether there’s a needle in the strawberry. If there is a needle, u should report it.
The point of finding the needle is to not eat the berry (shouldn’t eat that entire pack to be honest), not to take it out and eat the berry anyways..
oh of course! hahaha how did not figure that out
caitlin barnett are you dumb
What if a child or even worse a baby ate one think before you do
I don't think they care.
I don't think it's any worse than an adult eating one.
There was a baby that died from it
Oh hopefully it is alright
*If you want to inflict harm on others, just take yourself out, without hurting anyone else.*
*Thank you, from everyone in the world.*
01:39 Only 15 years in prison for posessing CP or financing terrorism? That's not very seriously taken at all.
yeah they should do more years for hurting or possibly killing hundreds or thousands of innocent people
15 years for every single instance. So imagine if some dude's hard drive got busted, it would land them probably 9 billion years.
It may not seem like a lot on paper. However, take note of where you are in life right now and then time the next 15 years. It's a huge chunk of your life. And it would feel like a hell of a lot more if you were locked in a concrete cage instead of walking free on the streets.
Well you have to remember, Australia is a penal colony already
Steal money from a bank you’re doing more than 15 though
What a waste the person who did this is a disgrace to Australia
Horrible! I would cut them up, but I live in Canada! Still ruining how hard farmers work is just plain wrong!
Its an attempted murder ffs. 15 years in jail wouldn't give justice to the victims. Should be hang to death penalty for this hideous crime. Who the fack would have heart to put needle in foods? Only crazy psychopath
If I ever go to Australia, I'll be careful while eating strawberries. 👀
Why they call it strawberry, I see no straw. But we can call'em needleberry now.
Now they're gonna put strawberries on tide-pod styled key lockers
electromt LOL
ahh ... metal detectors ... c'mon
Some metal detectors can't detect things that are tiny such as needles so it's hard to detect a needle
I mean, australia is a fairly rich country
@@chris-cs8et Unless they bought there detector at a dollar store it should detect any metal or alloy, they should invest in one and put it on the conveyor belt just before packaging.
JOE KING, oh, ok.
JOE KING people go to the stores, insert a needle, and leave. You’d need to scan before checkout at the cashier.
Good on the Aussie PM for going hard into this issue, always nice to see a politician protecting his people and delivering justice
Sick sick person who did this
Leave those berrys alone you monster!
Hi I'm Sean Luis Cambel

This is why I taught my nieces and nephews to cut their food before putting it in their mouth. They even eat watermelons with fork and knife.
Wow :-:
It's not easy to stop someone that wants to do something bad, they'll just find another way to do it.
Sick people! The criminal deserve death penalty and canning
He described it so well, the guy or people who are doing this are cowards !!
im afraid to eat strawberry after watching this 🤕
Jhope and his sprite there gone now 🙂 I’m eating strawberries now
The annual purge has started. In the next 24 hours, all crimes will be legal.
Me: *PUTS NEEDLE IN STRAWBERRY*
Why just why? Can't people see other people in Peace
There is always someone to spoil our good lives
Because these people, normally suffered they whole life, and think that, by causing the suffering of other people, they will get better...
Such idiots...
@@umcaraqualquer3640 such sad souls😤
I thought I was paranoid to think that there could be needles in my food.
A rational fear indeed.
People who assume that there are no risks in the food that they buy from shops are silly enough to start with, but to pull the plug on the whole crop is ridiculous.
So where is the explanation...did I miss it?
The explanation is that moronic pranksters are placing needles inside of bananas and strawberries as some sort of practical joke/copycat prank. This has led to tonnes of strawberries being dumped and wasted, and a national food scare. Strawberry farmers' lives are also at stake, and campaigners are urging to public to continue to buy strawberries (and cut them up before consumption) to support the nations farmers' livelihoods.
@@Lucky8s
How is that a prank though
Dont even eat the strawberry. The needle could be contaminated with tetanus or something. With a needle inside food, and the needle coming from an unknown source, then its a biohazard
This could be fatal.
Ayush Chawdhary
The point of Terrorism.
It would be good to put a metal detector next to the scales in the super.
This is so freaking evil! What cowards to do this to innocent people and children.
I love strawberries... but I HATE needles!
RUclips: "Let's still reccomend him this video!"
Death penalty for the ppl doing this.
Make them eat the strawberries with the needles they put in
^
They got it easy. Here in Cali we get 15 years for possessing straws.
You serious?
Can't drink your fast food soda without a straw? First world problems. Straws kill thousands of animals each year. Because of spoiled lazy POS. So good.
ITS A MEME GUYS! You just made yourselves memes. LOL!
@@smillpupstick4323 I wish I was dumb enough to talk in meme form. Especially ones I didn't make up.
@@lndingalle9605 Sell paper and premuim metal straws for disabled.
The copy cats are definitely teenagers
I grew up on a farm, every summer I’d handle my family’s strawberry patch with my cousin. it’s so sad to see such a waste because of some evil people.
Only 15? Should get atleast 25 for endangering children, causing nationwide paranoia and wasting all those strawberries.
Expell them to the outback
this is the outback…
This literally explained nothing
Where are they dumping them?! Ima go there with a couple buckets
RIN SuGaR hahaha
Grand City, Use your brain. Do you really think those huge piles with I'm going to estimate at probably 10-20 thousand strawberries all have needles stuck in them? Regardless they weren't and haven't been anywhere near a store. Those piles were farmers dumping their harvest after the pricing pretty much hit nothing and loads of people weren't buying strawberries any more.
Maybe you should use your brain, you think thousand of strawberrys thrown all together in a unhygienic place in a middle of nature arent going to be full of insects, parasites, ect?
Only the strawberries on the bottom are touching the ground. You do know they come from outside, right? Pick out the bad ones if you find them; that's what farmers do.
Trey Thats like saying you can eat a bread loaf if you cut out the part with bacteria mold...
I remember when I was a child some sick individual was putting nails at the bottom of slides in my city. This reminded me of that. What a time to be alive.
A kid admitted to doing this. I think he should be charged as an adult and given the maximum sentence, just like any other perpetrators.
When you really think about it, it's impossible for such a large scale sabotage to be an individual's work. Who stands to benefit the most from a fear towards natural fruits? Obviously, it's someone who profits from the production of processed foods! The investigators just don't want to get their hands dirty, they're sharp enough to deduce this kind of thing instantly.
Obviously, some people will duplicate the "prank" after hearing about it, but for it to be so widespread and at such a large scale, do you really believe some people with nothing to gain from it did that? Procuring millions of needles alone is not something someone with nothing to gain from it would do, let alone painstakingly hiding them in fruits. Additionally, they'll need to put the food back into circulation.
That’s why I grow my own strawberries...
I live in Australia and now I’m scared to eat fruit aha
Aye Its Zoe Do you mind sharing some tips on how to grow my own strawberries?!
I'd eat your strawberry
It is generally really good to grow your own food regardless to avoid stuff like this.. recalls are a grocery store nightmare
I always get lazy and forget this but yeah living life is just a numbers game.. gotta be careful and always watch your back
There are parts of the world where strawberries don't grow due to climatic conditions and the people really crave them but in vain!
Anyone found guilty of this crime, should be forced to eat their own contaminated strawberries.
this isn't a joke. i'm 100% in favor of death penalty for this "prank". this is attempted murder and terrorism.
"So can we blame the russians?!" -CNN
Lol
This is berry bad!
Berry berry bad indeed.
Needles could be contaminated with diseases
Unlikely. Your logic is whack. Anything could be contaminated/dirty. I assume nobody has handfuls of needs lying around so they were probably bought.
Sewing needles not medical needles ig. I think you should be more worried about swallowing pesticides off produce than from the needle
Or just actually getting stabbed by the needle itself but, yknow, disease
See all those strawberries wasted made me so sad. What a sick world we live in.
By adding this video to RUclips you are adding fuel to the fire
*Maybe the person/people who did this are being forced to work in these farms against their will? It could be a signal or revenge on their masters*
Hugh Mann could be calling attention to their enslavement
why hurt people who have nothing to do with it tho
Thats called enslavement
@@oogabooga222 wha? I think they can leave.
Why throw them away ? Can't they make jam out of them, or something. Such a waste of food.
fastnbulbouss I know right... they just assumed it would sell and didn’t think of any alternatives
To be honest though, even if they made jam out of it, I wouldn’t eat it as the needle may possibly risk the sanitation of the strawberries themselves due to the acid in the fruit causing them to rust
if a needle is found then the strawberry wouldn't be used to make the jam... and really the needles are inserted when hey are in the shop, if the jam maker take the strawberries straight from the farmer then there will be no needle concerns.
@@WeiYinChan erm... I don't really think so, as it is believed that the needles have been inserted by people picking and packaging the needles into the punnet. By the time it reaches the hands the hands of the jam makers, rust from the needle would have already contaminated the strawberries.
Sirius Snazz again, if there is needle in a strawberry the jam maker would just not put that one in. And most cases are copy cat cases, the ones who got caught were mostly kids, so no, most of the contamination happens inside the shop
And you’re a grub
We used to buy a brand of mixed vegetables for stir fry. I don't remember what grocer sold it but on two occasions there were rusted partials of safety pins in the peas casing. They we're safety pins with the hinge and lock broken off essentially leaving behind a needle.
Imagine a man in a warehouse just spending hours piecing strawberries with needles.
This really is sick. But then again, the world is messed up sometimes.
Oh my goodness, this is absurd! My worst nightmare
what a waste....what has this world come to?
This is horrible. Hope they rethink the condemns and give this people a serious punishment. Not only the people life is in danger but the entire industry.
You can use a strong magnet to detect if there's any needles inside your strawberries, I just put a sewing needle in a strawberry & I could feel the attraction of the magnet pulling the needle, it's a better solution than just hoping.
This is sick. One whole industry has been crippled because of this. All the farmers losing out. Have these people no thought and empathy?
What kind of severe sadist does that? Just by the amount of Innocents affected, farmers affected and wastage of food and natural resources itself, this demands maximum punishment. These kinda people with sick mentality should not be shown any mercy
