"The undigested grass in the braised sheep's head made me stunned!" Recently, a video of a food blogger went viral on the Internet, and when she ate Fuzhou braised sheep's head in a live broadcast, she actually ate whole grass from the sheep's head. The shocking scene immediately sparked heated discussions online.
After the incident, the Fuzhou market supervision department quickly intervened in the investigation. However, the results of the investigation were even more suffocating, and the regulator confirmed that the blogger's report was true. This means that when the seller was making the braised sheep's head, he didn't even clean up the undigested food in the sheep's belly, and directly marinated it.
This has seriously exceeded the bottom line of food safety. Think about it, the sheep's head we paid for and the fresh grass in the animal's stomach in it is unimaginable. What's even more terrifying is that we don't know how many invisible "secrets" are hidden in the lo-mei we usually eat.
"Will there be fecal residue in the grass in the sheep's head?"
"Sheep may have eaten poisonous plants, will we be poisoned if we eat them?"
This incident spread tentily and hundreds, and soon caused an uproar on the Internet. People have expressed their stance that they will strictly investigate and punish the braised meat shop, suspend business and rectify it, and comprehensively inspect the local lo-mei process to avoid the terrifying picture of "grass in it" in the lo-mei.
But we also need to think calmly that this is just an individual case and should not be expanded. Rather than blaming individual suppliers for non-standard production processes, it is better to reflect on the regulatory environment of the industry as a whole and the consumer's right to choose.
There is still a lot of room for improvement in food safety regulation. In order to reduce costs, individual businesses choose to do evil, but the regulatory loopholes behind it are also an important reason. Regulators should intensify routine inspections in the food production process and establish stricter inspection standards so that problematic goods have nowhere to hide.
More attention should be paid to the right of consumers to choose safe food. In the face of an endless stream of food safety incidents, each of us should be aware of our right to health and supervise businesses by rationally choosing "no". In addition, the regulatory authorities should also publish the results of the investigation and the list of merchants in a timely manner after the incident, rather than making a perfunctory downplay.
Of course, both businesses and regulators should focus on prevention. Businesses should strengthen staff training and standardize operations, and regulatory departments should improve the system and cooperate closely. Only when businesses pay equal attention to self-discipline and supervision, can food safety problems in the market be truly reduced.
This Fuzhou braised sheep's head incident is just the tip of the iceberg. It reflects the shortcomings of China's current food safety supervision. I hope that all walks of life can learn from this, look at it rationally, and work together to make our dining table safer and life more dignified. Only by keeping the safety of every food in mind can we eat with confidence and enjoy the pleasure of food.
