The use of food can be traced back to break the leg to sell pork

The price difference between beef and pork was driven by windfall profits. A few meat traders started to worry about making beef into “beef” with the addition of salt, beef extract, and carmine, and even started “surgery” and spliced ​​pork on the beef leg. On the outside for sale. On January 6, the Mingguang police cracked the case and involved more than 90,000 yuan. The criminal suspects were detained.

From “gelatin skin jelly”, “red hearts and salted duck eggs”, to “lethal life snails,” and “crazy hot strips”, China’s food fraud technology has been “unfortunately unable to do anything” throughout the past years, constantly breaking through public recognition. Know the bottom line. This does not, and some people have been engaged in the "hanging calf sells pork" tricks - a certain couple from Huamou buy low-priced pigs or old sows from neighboring townships, and then use the needlework to "graft" the pig's legs. On cow's leg, cowskin is covered with cowskin, and after sewing, cow legs are forged.

Why did criminals dry up their "hanging calf to sell pork?" It is nothing more than "intelligence." The price of beef in the market is generally 30 yuan / kg or more, while the pork purchased by the suspect, the cost is only 6 yuan / kg. To fake pork as beef means getting 5 times profit. As a result, under the temptation of high profits, lawless elements use their wisdom without discipline or bottomlessness. For example, pork is soaked with chemical products such as carmine, sodium benzoate, gelatin, industrial salt, salt, beef essence, etc. to make it resemble beef in flavor and flavor. For another example, pork and beef are “seamlessly docked” by careful manual sewing.

According to the police report, "After being processed, pork looks very similar to beef in terms of appearance and blood color and is difficult to distinguish." However, the more real the fake beef is, the greater the damage the people suffer. According to the account of Hua Moumou, from the crime to the crime, he has illegally obtained more than 90,000 yuan. This means that nearly 2 tons of fake beef soaked in chemical products such as carmine, sodium benzoate and beef extract flow into the table, threatening the safety of the tongue. Its danger and danger are self-evident.

So, how to solve the bottomless "hanging calf sell pork"? First, it requires the relevant departments to strictly enforce the law and strike hard. Through meticulous investigations and unannounced visits, the counterfeit and fake sales outlets will be wiped out. Second, we must make good use of legal leverage and food blacklist systems. The new version of the "Food Safety Law" stipulates that "a fine of up to 30 times the value of the goods can be punished" and "a serious food safety accident, criminal responsibility shall be prioritized." The method of adjudication is not enough to be self-perpetuating, and the relevant departments should strictly implement it and impose heavy blows on criminals so that they do not dare to falsify. At the same time, the food safety department must also formulate a food blacklist system, “a lifetime of banned banned entry”. Through legal and institutional levers, the problem food is kept out of the crowd's table.

More importantly, the food safety department must vigorously promote the food traceability mechanism and use food to resolve the problem of “hanging ox leg selling pork”. Imagine that the origin, origin, date of slaughter, breeder, and production process of meat products can all be inspected through code scans. What is wrong with criminals? Therefore, in the long run, relevant departments should also develop food terminal search APPs by integrating databases, so that foods can be “writable” as soon as possible. Only in this way can we break the drawbacks of “hanging cow legs and sell pork” and maintain the safety at the public tongue.
