McCain Vegetable Stir Fry
I had purchased a McCain Vegetable Stir Fry which was overall good except for the green beans that were clearly not cut as some still had the stem on it or attached to half of another green bean. The green beans are the longest vegetable in the package so it was a mouthful and is not the same size as the other vegetables in the stir fry which is odd. I see someone else also had the same experience August 2025 and I had purchased mine in December 2025 so no change was made or adhered too.

McCain South Africa
I have been purchasing frozen baby peas from McCain for years. However, their quality has become quite disgusting. In the pack, I find beans, rotten peas, and stalks. This is disappointing and costly, as I am a pensioner with no income. I purchase about 6 to 8 packs a week so it's exceptionally costly throwing out a lot of the product. I sent them a message to which I received an automated response an hour later, asking me to rate their service (this was about 3 weeks ago) and have still not had a single response from them at all

McCain not receiving what you think you buy.
Good day. I bought the McCain French stir-fry thinking how nice it would be to have some mushroom in my stir-fry. I got peas half cut, 80 % carrot straps and one tiny slice of a mushroom in my whole packet. That is not satisfactory. This is the worst I have ever received from stir-fry. If I was McCain I would close down shop.

More than Stir Fry
A long piece of stiff plastic "string" appeared down the throat of my daughter who was eating the stir fry made from Mccain French stir fry mix. Their contact email does not work and one cannot add pictures to the customer contact form, how do I alert "quality control?"

Ratio of Mc Cai Asian Stir-fry ingredients
We bought Mc Cain Asian Stir-fry last week. it should really be called Carrot stir-fry with 2 pieces of red cabbage, 5 red peppers, a few green beans and baby corn and lots of lots of lots of carrots. How did this happen? The ratio is completely unbalanced. If I knew this I could have just bought all the ingredients separately and made it myself and saved money. The product is not exactly cheap.

Terrible straight cut fries
We no longer get your American style French fries in shops… recently bought 2 of the 1.5kg straight cuts from checkers and one pack would just dirty and suck all the oil as fries would turn into mash.. mind you I’m using the same recipe and temperatures to fry the chips. That was disappointing
