SuperSpar's disregard for religious people who don't eat pork

Superspar in Gonubie, East London has no regard for us customers who do not eat any form of pork for religious reasons.

On two separate occasions this was made visible to me.

1. At the deli area where they serve cooked food they use one serving s**** for pork, beef or chicken. The staff gave me slack and told me the entire shop has only one serving s****. I alerted the manager about this cross contamination happening about two weeks ago. The staff is still doing the same thing.

2. The labelling on the various raw sausages being sold does not comply with the law. They do not distinctively state which meat is contained in the sausage. The label reads "meat" and you depend on staff to tell you what meat is inside and they are constantly contradicting themselves. They mislead us into thinking the beef sausage is pure beef whereas they are using pork casing as opposed to sheep casing as admitted by their head butcher this past Tuesday (04/01/2022). In addition to that the other butcher made me buy sausage he said he mixed himself only to find out he was lying and it did indeed contain pork. I informed the manager on duty but nothing much has changed as yet.

Is there a regulatory body I can inform about this as I have a right as a consumer due to my religious beliefs? Someone assist
