According to Voice of China's "News and Verticals" report, as of yesterday (30th), 206 companies have been implicated in the "plasticizer" turmoil in Taiwan, and 522 products may be contaminated. Almost all major food manufacturers in Taiwan have been Get involved.
Then, why do we add "clouding agents" in foods, and why "plasticizers" are added to the "clouding agents"? Nanjing Agricultural University professor and food expert Zhou Yingheng was on duty on Newsweek last night. The editor Liang Hongqing gave this explanation in an interview.
Zhou Yingheng: Plasticizers are not actually a food additive, but are completely an industrial product. It is now added to the clouding agent. The clouding agent is a food additive that can be legally used. It mainly uses palm oil and softeners, but plasticizers are now used to replace palm oil. Adding this thing is mainly to prevent sports drinks or foods from settling, making it more uniform and increasing its taste. Some unscrupulous traders in Taiwan are now replacing palm oil with plasticizers, of course, in order to save costs. The plasticizer is called phthalate ester. If it is used excessively, it will affect the reproductive function and even lead to cancer. There must be such a danger.
Taiwanese businessmen declare that the product "without clouding agent" consumers do not buy Taiwan's authorities announced today (31st) is "the termination of the black heart cloud agent action day", zero-zero points to the store, supermarkets began joint audit inspection, including sports Drinks, fruit juices, tea, sugar syrup, powdered gelatine and other five categories of products must provide proof of safety without plasticizers. Otherwise, sales will be banned and violators will be punished with heavy penalties. The following is a report sent by Chen Yi, a reporter from the Central People's Broadcasting Station in Taipei:
When the health authorities went to supermarkets, convenience stores, restaurants, and airports in Taiwan, they found that many businesses had no time to come up with an inspection report and only gave a statement that said that the product definitely did not contain clouding agents.
Health Unit Staff: You have to issue a declaration of conformity, otherwise you will not be able to sell it tomorrow. We will look at it again tomorrow.
For this form of declaration, consumers obviously do not buy it.
Consumer 1: Even if he guarantees, the problem is that you don't have an official inspection report for us.
Consumer 2: This is a talk, this one will write.
Taiwan's Ministry of Health: Testing can't catch up with the product, but it also needs to be destaged. It is understood that there are only 14 private inspection laboratories in the entire Taiwan region. Not only do they have to queue up for inspections, but they also have to wait a week for results to come out. Many businesses feel that they cannot catch up. For this, the Taiwan health department Qiu Wenda, the person in charge, said that even if the inspections failed to catch up, the products had to be removed first.
Reporter: Now that traffic jams are being tested, what if the industry can't catch it?
Qiu Wenda: I think we should go down first, or we must first remove the shelves.
From today onwards, the relevant units of the Taiwan authorities will work together to carry out comprehensive inspections and random inspections on all doubtful products, hoping to end this turmoil quickly. Taiwan’s health department official Xiao Meiling called on all businesses to cooperate.
Xiao Meiling: I once again appealed that this is a very large scope. In any case, the industry must bring this security proof together to provide safe products to our consumers.
Xiao Meiling said that those who do not cooperate will be punished with heavy fines and can even be fined to NT$1.5 million.
Hong Kong: The impact of the “plasticizer†component “plasticizer†detected in 200 blood samples has now exceeded that of Taiwan Island, and the “plasticizers†have not been included in the relevant countries and regions that have imported Taiwan products. Within the scope of food additive monitoring, this incident has also shocked relevant countries and regions.
The Hong Kong Baptist University has recently conducted a blood test for "plasticizers." Among the blood samples provided, almost all the samples have been tested for "plasticizers". The following is a report from Hong Kong Radio reporter Gao Ju:
An earlier analysis by the Department of Biology of the Hong Kong Baptist University provided Hong Kong Red Cross with 200 blood samples from men and women in their teens to their fifties. As a result, toxic plasticizers were found in nearly all samples. Huang Gangzhuo, a biology professor who is in charge of the study, said that these chemicals are easily absorbed by the body. Huang Gang also stated that the public may come into contact with such plasticizers through the air and food, and suggested that the public should suspend the use of products suspected of being problematic.
The same study also showed that the offspring of mice that once took plasticizers were mainly female, and even females had smaller reproductive organs than the normal 2/3. It is believed that humans’ long-term absorption of plasticizers will affect men. Bigger than women.
The Hong Kong Food Safety Center sent people to the market for inspections and sampled foods and drinks produced in Taiwan at some stores for testing, including sports drinks, jellies, and desktop drinks produced in Taiwan. According to the results of the latest laboratory tests conducted by the Center for Food Safety, two sports drinks imported from Taiwan were found to contain plasticizers exceeding the standard by 1 to 17 times. The authorities decided to ban imports from tomorrow. If people accidentally drink it, there is no need to worry. If you drink only one half of them for a long period of time, the plasticizers ingested will exceed the standards and children will be at greater risk. Long-term drinking will affect the liver, kidneys, reproductive organs and development. The center also stated that Taiwan's imported BRAND'S Super King Kong growing-up calcium tablets were also found to contain plasticizers, which would not have an immediate impact on health based on risk assessment. In addition, the center temporarily focuses on products produced in Taiwan and does not rule out the possibility that semi-finished products will flow into other regions. The authorities will next conduct random inspections of relevant foods in other regions.
United Group: China sells a drink without "clouding agent"
Almost all Taiwanese brands are contaminated with plasticizers, including some products of the “Unified Group.†Then, is the unified beverage sold in mainland China also affected? The editor of the News Longitudinal, Liang Hongqing, telephoned Yang Shouzheng, assistant to the general manager of the United Group last night. He said that the unified beverage products sold in the mainland do not contain the “clouding agent†component.
Yang Shouzheng: Our products produced and sold in mainland China have never been used as clouding agents. That is used by Taiwan.
Reporter: That is to say, including tea drinks, fruit juice drinks or anything on the mainland side, do not add plasticizer inside?
Yang Shouzheng: Yes, that is, sports drinks are in use. There are no clouding agents for the raw materials used in production and sales in mainland China.
Reporter: So, this time, the mainland's branded drinks are not affected, right?
Yang Shouzheng: Yes.
The AQSIQ stated that with the exception of the Shanghai port, other entry-exit inspection and quarantine agencies have not received product issues concerning pollution batches notified by the Taiwan side. Shanghai-related supermarkets have already carried out off-shelf storage on the imported problematic products, and have no outflow to the market. In the market.
Another brand, Branding, which involved plasticizers, also issued a statement emphasizing that it has not sold and imported products related to this incident in the Chinese mainland market.
Food experts: The mainland should immediately carry out a special test for “plasticizers.†So, is the beverage and food in mainland China now containing “plasticizersâ€? Zhou Yiheng, a food expert, believes that from this incident, the mainland should immediately carry out a special inspection campaign for “plasticizersâ€.
Zhou Yingheng: There are many places in the world that have not added such unimaginable things. The occurrence of such an event has given us an important revelation: Our past tests were all based on the detection of known hazards. For food additives, they were banned in the past, and the relevant regulations recently promulgated in our country stipulate that they can be used only if they are included in the list of food additives. Therefore, we feel that we should say that the regulatory system has already taken the first step.
Whether or not the food in the mainland area is used as a clouding agent can only be confirmed after the inspection. In fact, after this incident in Taiwan, it has caused a high degree of vigilance in the world. I think the mainland food safety department may have already taken relevant measures. But on the contrary, we are the regulations or regulations on the use of food additives introduced in the past few months, and now it is more meaningful or necessary.
Then, why do we add "clouding agents" in foods, and why "plasticizers" are added to the "clouding agents"? Nanjing Agricultural University professor and food expert Zhou Yingheng was on duty on Newsweek last night. The editor Liang Hongqing gave this explanation in an interview.
