, Gong Bu. Fan Ting also had a lot of introspection on the dry Sudan Red incident. ※

As Fan Wubing pointed out, it is the management gap of relevant domestic functional departments that gives Sudan Red a chance to survive.

The management of food additives in China was first exclusively in charge of the Food Bureau of the former Ministry of Light Industry, and later. The state adjusts the division of food inspection functions: Imported and exported food must be inspected by the Entry-Exit Inspection and Inspection Bureau; food produced by enterprises must be inspected by the Quality and Technical Supervision Bureau when leaving the factory; and health, agriculture and other departments also pay attention to food safety.

The multi-level supervision of food safety has led to repeated inspections in some areas, and undetected in some areas.

The Sudan Red No. 1 incident also showed that the safety awareness of the entire food industry was weak. The first few days after the killing order was issued on the Sudan No. 1 in the country. The heads of some industry associations and industry experts came to the conclusion that Sudan Red No. 1 was only detected in a few countries, and no domestic company made Sudan Red No. 1 pigment, nor did food companies add Sudan Red No. 1 pigment.

When asked why such a conclusion can be reached without specific investigation, the answer of the relevant person in charge of the China Condiment Industry Association can be said to be surprising, "Because domestic condiment manufacturers have never been allowed to use Sudan Red No. 1 before. As a food additive."

In fact, until a long time later. Only the relevant industry associations issued emergency notices. The catering units in all regions are required to immediately stop using food containing Sudan Red No. 1 and strive to limit the pollution of harmful substances to a minimum.

In response to this matter, Fan Heng specially invited some senior practitioners in the food industry to consult. They said that Sudan red is not the only one that can dye food red. There are many common ways to make red in the domestic market: red spicy plates and red hawthorn slices are smoked with sulfur, and red sausages are mixed with formaldehyde. Use paint red paste to mix out the plug water.

These poisonous foods are added with poisonous red and poisonous materials. Although it has been repeatedly investigated and severely punished by the industrial and commercial quality supervision and health department, and repeatedly exposed or criticized by the media, it is like pressing a gourd to float. So that the relevant departments even posted notices. Let consumers take care of themselves.

An unavoidable fact is that not only Sudan Red One exists in China, but also various Sudan Red Ones such as formaldehyde and carmine.

The emergence of this incident once again shows that the establishment of a new food safety early warning response mechanism in China has become imminent.

Some experts also pointed out that the current food safety early warning and emergency response mechanism should be strengthened from both hardware and software as soon as possible. In terms of hardware, it is necessary to improve food safety evaluation standards. Although many standards have been issued in China, some standards are too old in terms of current social development. In this regard, the country must consider integrating with the country as soon as possible. In addition, food safety inspection technology should be improved. This technology should at least be able to ensure fast and accurate inspections of all types of food on Fengchang.

In terms of software, it means that the quality of the country's overall law enforcement team needs to be improved. The country should strengthen the training of law enforcement personnel to improve their ability to inspect and respond to food safety from both technical and experience aspects.

At the same time, the establishment of the national food safety, sanitation and epidemic prevention early warning mechanism and related emergency response systems should be based on standards acceptable to both the people and the government. Relevant national departments should cultivate the awareness of domestic food companies to conduct comprehensive quality control, and start quality control for a product that has not yet been launched in the market planning period. This control period will continue until the product loses its use value in the hands of consumers.

The domestic large-scale siege operation against the Sudan Red No. 1 has achieved fruitful results. The production of many enterprises including Heinz and KFC has been seized in Beijing, Guangdong, Xijiang, Guangxi, Hunan, Sichuan, Fujian and other provinces, regions and cities. A variety of problematic products containing Sudan Red One.

At the same time, the industry and commerce department also identified the source of Sudan Red No. 1, which provides food materials for the above-mentioned enterprises. One of the company’s food ingredients called "Spicy Banhong No. 1" containing Sudan Red No. 1 is nearly 20,000 kilograms. , Has flowed to nine provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities including Guangdong, Guangxi, Henan, Jiangsu, Hubei, Hebei, Xijiang, Yunnan, and Chongqing.

At present, the local industry and commerce agencies are organizing forces to step up the investigation and handling of these problems.

"Sudan Red No.1 contains azobenzene. When azobenzene is degraded, it will produce a moderately toxic carcinogen, benzene knee. Excessive benzene glue is inhaled into the human body, which may cause tissue hypoxia and poor breathing. It causes damage to the central nervous system and cardiovascular system, and even leads to infertility." A medical expert explained the harm of the Sudan Red One to Fan Heng and other leaders of the State Council, “This kind of harm is obviously very dangerous. But I believe that in some domestically produced foods, there should be some other prohibited additives that are far more harmful than Sudan Red One."

A well-known female nutritionist also said. In fact, the unsound food standards are not only in China. It is widespread in countries all over the world, especially in the safety management of ready-to-eat food, which is commonly known as fast food.

She believes that with the acceleration of people's life, the consumption of ready-to-eat food is sweeping the world. However, the seemingly simple ready-to-eat food contains very complex ingredients and there are many types.

Take the United Kingdom as an example. There are more than 50 different ingredients in a piece of meat-stuffed potato pie sold, including those that enhance the food's flavor, emulsify, and increase consistency.

In addition, the food production chain of ready-to-eat food is also quite complicated. Foreign experts believe that the complex food safety chain has also increased the difficulty of tracing potentially problematic foods. For example, there are fifty kinds of ingredients that have fifty kinds of errors.

Experts from the British agricultural and food inspection department believe that even if the British food inspection department is more capable and the standards of food additives are perfect, it will have to deal with thousands of foods containing more than 50 ingredients, and it is difficult to guarantee every time. The origin and safety of the food can be verified 100%.

However, the food safety expert also pointed out. If modern human society loses these additives, the taste of some ready-to-eat foods will be much worse than before, and various foods will face many new problems. Such as microbial contamination and bacterial growth, lack of nutrients and so on.

"Specific to the domestic situation, illegal food companies are unscrupulous in reducing costs, but the inspection technology of the regulatory agencies has not followed up in time. There is no prevention, only spot checks, no information collection in the processing link, only follow-up and clearance after the event, which means food safety The system is actually in a passive and lagging situation." She told everyone. "Therefore, when the relevant departments deal with these problems, they need to strengthen food control. Small quality control. Of course, building a food warehouse system should not be a pure government." The food safety system controls and guides the food industry in a new direction."

This time the incident also made the Chinese people suspicious of some extremely trusted foreign brands. For example, large companies such as KFC.

Due to the Sudan Red incident, KFC has recently had to deal with a steady stream of litigation and disputes, and under the siege of the mass media, whether it will continue to implement the policy of exemption or exemption and refusal to refine the votes in the future. It must be handled well. With these ensuing problems, to restore one's own brand image, it is natural to take up one's own social responsibilities.

In this incident, KFC first declared that its products did not contain Sudan Red. When the quality inspection department announced that it had Sudan Red in its products, it faced embarrassment and passed the responsibility to the relevant suppliers. They claimed that they had repeatedly requested the relevant suppliers to ensure that their products did not contain Sudan Red One, and obtained written guarantees from the supplier, but they did not expect that the supplier had illegally imported raw materials containing Sudan Red this time.

This statement not only failed to win the sympathy and conviction of the public, but also caused people to torture the quality system that it has always advertised. As a world-wide catering company, it has always advertised the standardization, clarity and digitalization of its production procedures, and it has been very important for suppliers’ products. There is no safety mechanism for spot-checking the laboratory again. Is the entire quality and safety system reliable? At the same time, KFC has always been vague on the issue of consumer claims, and the image of international big-name companies has been greatly beaten in the minds of Chinese consumers.

In fact, according to the internationally accepted definition, it is comparable to the standard definition. Corporate social responsibility is an ethical behavior of an enterprise to society, that is, while making profits, an enterprise must take the initiative to assume responsibility for the environment, society, and stakeholders.

The enterprise is the cell of the society, and the society is the support of the enterprise. The development of an enterprise must require a large amount of social and natural resources, and only by allowing the society to make continuous progress and development, can the enterprise have a steady stream of resource support and have enough room for expansion. At the same time, society is also the source of corporate interests. Enterprises can better reflect their cultural orientation and values ​​by taking on social responsibilities and earning reputation and social recognition. Create a better social atmosphere for corporate exhibitions, so that companies can maintain their vitality and achieve long-term sustainable exhibitions.

China is a country with a large population as well as a large consumer country.

It can be said that no multinational company that wants to seek further development can ignore the existence of such a huge market in China.

In the past, due to long-term image promotion and good performance, multinational companies such as KFC have won the blind worship of many Chinese consumers, but as Chinese consumers mature. And the increase in the awareness of rights protection, marked by the Sudan Red incident, this blind worship of foreign countries is turning into a sober sense.

In this situation, whether multinational companies take advantage of policies and laws, or deceive and fool consumers, they will inevitably lead to enterprises being indifferent and repelled by this market.

However, the more worrying issue is the domestic food safety issue, or more the issue of lack of social integrity, from spicy lin sauce, spicy oil, cooked meat, instant noodles, salad and even lecithin. , Cosmetics, no one can tell how many types of Sudanese red products people are around.

This incident actually detonated an industry secret. Some food processing companies took advantage of the loopholes in laws and regulations. At present, there is a serious lack of food safety laws and regulations in the domestic circulation field. Some food standards have not changed for decades, and the Sudan Red incident is exactly what The fish that missed the net with imperfect food inspection standards.

Through this incident, in addition to Fan Wuyi's jokes, the government has indeed done some things to make up for it, and revised outdated food safety regulations and other laws and regulations.

According to the plan, the current national standards and industry standards for processed food will be thoroughly cleaned up. Some of these standards will be merged and eliminated, and some standards will be incorporated into the new standard system after being reviewed.

The cleaned-up standards together with the national and industry standards for processed foods that need to be included in the plan. It will constitute a new standard system for processed foods.

In fact, this incident makes people feel a little embarrassed. Although the domestic "Sanitary Standards for the Use of Food Additives" prohibits the use of industrial raw materials as food additives, because Sudan Red is not a food additive, it is not included in the routine testing items. For Su Ponghong, he did not consider the use of industrial raw materials when formulating food standards.

Therefore, in the past few years, there has never been a Sudan Red test, and no unit has submitted an application for a Sudan Red test. An example similar to Sudan Red is that the fresh cream on the cake can stay for several days. In fact, excessive additives are used in the cake. However, the current national standard does not limit the use range and amount of the main ingredients of the cake oil. .

According to statistics from relevant departments, only 10% of the domestic processed food standards adopt the International Codex Alimentarius Commission standards ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ only 40% of the ISO Food Technical Committee standards are adopted. At the same time, 80% of the national standards are non-mandatory recommended standards, and the monitoring efforts are not strong.

In response to the current phenomenon of multiple and repetitive standards, the relevant departments stated that they will optimize the standard structure of standard integration, and at the same time will be responsible for revising five international standards for canned products such as tomato, peach, mushroom, corned beef, and luncheon meat, and formulating green tea and brewing soy sauce. And international standards such as brewed vinegar, research and revision of special dietary food and dairy product standards, mainly including infant and young children food standards, elderly food standards, and general rules for dairy products.

Fan Wuyao held a positive attitude towards these government practices, he told his father Fan Heng. "There are standards to follow. It is better than no standards to follow. Detailed standards to follow are obviously more effective than vague standards to follow. In fact, this time also shows that there are certain industries that need to be followed. Efforts to rectify, just like many departments under the original planned system, are no longer able to adapt to the needs of the new era. Those that should be withdrawn and merged will be withdrawn, and those that need to be newly added will be added. The alternation of power is inevitable."

Fan Heng heard his son's words and said, "The high level does have this meaning. The voices of the big ministries and committees are very loud. I think it won't take long for you to see the changes, and the changes will be relatively large."
