The ancients said: 'Food is safe first'. Today, there is a fat Donglai dough rolling incident, which interprets the adherence to food safety with actions. A turmoil not only unveiled a corner of food safety, but also let us witness the company's responsible attitude towards consumers.
On June 27, Fat Donglai Supermarket in Xinxiang, Henan Province, was reported for hygiene problems in a joint venture rolling dough shop. The whistleblower, Xiao Jin, a practitioner in the catering industry, bravely stood up for finding poor hygiene. His report prompted Fat Donglai to respond quickly, not only compensating customers, but also rewarding Xiaojin with 100,000 yuan, but Xiaojin actually received 80,000 yuan, deducting taxes and fees.
Xiao Jin said that the reason why he reported it was out of his attention to food safety and his love for the Fat Donglai brand. He believes that as a benchmark enterprise, Fat Donglai should assume social responsibility. Although he lost his job because of it, he has no regrets. After the incident was exposed, Fat Donglai acted quickly, closed the store involved, and dismissed the supervisor and quality controller involved. After receiving the reward, Jin also felt conflicted, both relieved that he could promote food safety, but also guilty of losing his job. He said that if he encounters a similar situation in the future, he will still stand up.
Netizens have different opinions on this incident and express their opinions:
Some netizens think that Fat Donglai's rolling dough is already clean, and the hygiene of other stores may be worse, and call on everyone to report other stores, not just Fat Donglai.
Some netizens also questioned the whistleblower's motives, thinking that he was a professional anti-counterfeiter, with ill intentions, and targeted Fat Donglai.
Some netizens are concerned about the problem of whistleblowers losing their jobs due to reporting, and think that the 100,000 yuan reward should be taxed, and whether they should complain directly to Fat Donglai to avoid affecting the livelihood of innocent employees.
Some netizens ridiculed the whistleblower, saying that he might wait for the rabbit in the future and continue to stare at Fat Donglai or other restaurants to report.
Some netizens expressed concern that such reporting behavior would encourage more people to deliberately crack down on counterfeiting and affect the normal business environment.
The Fat Donglai dough rolling incident not only allows us to see the importance that enterprises attach to food safety, but also reflects the widespread concern of the society about food safety issues. However, the identity and motives of the whistleblower have also sparked discussion. While maintaining food safety, we also need to look at reporting behavior rationally and avoid over-interpretation and bias. Only in this way can we work together to create a safe and healthy food environment.
