A Mzansi woman identified as Sohana Maharaj (@MaharajSohana) took to social media to share her shock upon stopping by the deli section of a shop during a recent grocery store run.

She shared a photo on her Twitter account showing what is supposed to be cream doughnuts, but she begs to differ. She captioned the tweet:

“My local @PicknPay is putting dessert cream in hot dog rolls and trying to pass it off as doughnuts. To clarify, I know what a cream bun is. This is not a cream bun. It's a hot dog roll, not a sweetened dough or bun.”

Pick n Pay online customers left vulnerable

Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that Pick n Pay customers who make use of their online shopping services have been severely compromised. Vital information that was handed over to Pick n Pay to make purchases was unfortunately exposed. Customers' names, homes addresses and even photographs that were taken by the delivery people as proof of receipt were exposed and could be accessed by anyone.

According to MyBroadband, the data breach stems from Dawn Wing, a courier company used by the supermarket retailer to deliver goods to customers. The data was exposed because the companies used sequential order numbers in the URL to allow consumers to monitor their delivery.
