Laotan pickled cabbage bag, which is often eaten by consumers, is said to be made by soaking in the jar and fermenting with traditional technology. In the report of CCTV's "March 15" party yesterday, there were food safety problems with pickled pickled cabbage from Hunan Zhaqi Vegetable Industry Co., Ltd., Jinrui Food Co., Ltd. and tantanqiao. After the broadcast of the program, many e-commerce platforms have been unable to search for products related to "laotan pickled cabbage". Meanwhile, Master Kang's flagship e-commerce store has also taken products related to laotan pickled vegetable beef noodles off the shelves. Many e-commerce platforms have taken off the shelves of another involved tanqiao pickled cabbage. According to the CCTV report, the flag inserting vegetable industry is a large vegetable reprocessing enterprise in Huarong County, Hunan Province. It processes pickled vegetable products for many well-known enterprises and laotan pickled vegetable bags for some instant noodle enterprises. It is known as laotan technology and full-time fermentation. According to the CCTV reporter's field visit, the pickled vegetables pickled in the standardized pickle pool of the enterprise are used to process export products, and the pickled vegetables in the laotan pickle bag are "earth pit pickled vegetables" purchased from the outside. CCTV reporter followed the company's truck and found a place to pickle pickled vegetables in a farmland near Tongfu village. Bags of pickled vegetables were randomly stacked on the ground. After machine cleaning, shredding, mixing, packaging and sterilization, they were made into laotan pickled vegetable bags. When these pickled vegetables were purchased by flag vegetable leaves, the flag vegetable industry did not test the health indicators. According to the provisions of the food safety law of the people's Republic of China, food producers shall check the licenses and product certificates of suppliers; Food raw materials that cannot be provided with qualification certificates shall be inspected in accordance with food safety standards. However, manager Peng, who is in charge of the production of flag vegetables, said that the flag vegetables industry does not test health indicators. Laotan pickled cabbage is called "laotan craft, full-time fermentation". In a dark warehouse, CCTV reporters did see some jars, but the workers told reporters that the pickled cabbage in the old jar pickled cabbage bag had not been fermented in the jar. "It doesn't need secondary fermentation, it doesn't need it," said Yan, manager of Hunan flag Vegetable Industry Co., Ltd It turns out that the so-called laotan pickled cabbage is just plain earth pit pickled cabbage. Manager Peng, the person in charge of production, admitted that although the flag vegetable industry has its own standardized pickle pool, and the pickled vegetables from here basically do not contain any impurities, these are used for export products. The pickled vegetables processed for food enterprises are all collected from Earth pits. They are also pickled vegetables. Why are there two different production methods? Peng, manager of Hunan Tiaoqi Vegetable Industry Co., Ltd., said: "when domestic products reach consumers, there is a little leaf and fiber in them. You will be fined at most 1000 yuan and 2000 yuan. If you go abroad, you will be fined at least 100000 yuan." Manager Peng said that the finished products processed with sauerkraut in the pit may contain some impurities, which are difficult to find by the naked eye due to multiple processes such as shredding. So how are these pickled vegetables pickled? Every early spring, when mustard is ripe, there is a big pit next to the vegetable field. Workers pour the mustard pulled from the field into the pit. CCTV reporter noted that these mustard are not cleaned, and some even have withered and yellow leaves. After placing, add water, salt, etc., wrap it with film, cover it with soil and marinate it directly. In some farmland in Huarong County, the reporter saw that there were many pits for pickling pickled vegetables. After three months, pickled vegetables are cured. From July to January of the next year, manufacturers will come here to buy sauerkraut. Like the sauerkraut purchased by the flag vegetable industry, workers either wear slippers or bare feet and step on sauerkraut. Some even work while smoking, and throw the cigarette end directly onto the pickled cabbage. Local farmers said that these pickled vegetables were pulled away by businesses all over the country, in addition to Hubei, Sichuan and Shanghai. It is understood that Yayuan pickle food factory in Junshan District, Yueyang City also collects vegetables from farmers' pits. In the workshop, a large number of sour mustard were directly unloaded on the ground. Yueyang Junshan Yayuan pickle food factory produces this 1kg pickled vegetable product, which is mainly sold to some catering enterprises. Haixia pickle factory also processes pickles for the back kitchen of the catering industry. The workshop is full of stains. The pickled vegetables to be processed are directly stacked on the ground. It is easier to clean the pickled vegetables here. Just after passing through the water, they are directly cut, bagged, added with preservatives and sealed. The person in charge of tanqiao Food Co., Ltd. said: "the preservatives in the pickled vegetables we make now exceed the standard, and generally exceed 2 to 10 times in summer." Jinrui Food Co., Ltd. is a large sauerkraut processing enterprise in Huarong County. It also processes laotan sauerkraut for some food enterprises. The person in charge of production admitted that the pickled vegetables collected from farmers will go through multiple processes such as cleaning, jar seven-day fermentation and shredding. It is difficult to find some impurities with the naked eye. Practitioners said that due to the short pickling time of pickled vegetables, they will turn black and rotten in about a month or two after packaging, and sometimes excessive preservatives will be added in the processing process. Mainly color protectants, sodium pyrosulfite and sulfur dioxide. respond Master Kang and uni president have taken "sealing" measures Last night, the reporter of Beijing Youth Daily saw on the official website of Hunan flag vegetable industry that it has 12 food grade standard plants, 4 modern vegetable processing production lines, more than 500 sets of equipment, and an annual vegetable processing capacity of 80000 tons.

Last night, unified enterprise responded that Hunan flag insertion company has no longer been the supplier of unified pickled cabbage bag raw materials since December 2012. At the same time, unified has interviewed the person in charge of Hunan Jinrui company for the first time, sealed all relevant pickled cabbage bag products, and conducted quality testing together with the participation of the market supervision bureau. Unified enterprise said: "with regard to the production environment of pickled cabbage raw materials produced by Hunan flag inserting company and Jinrui company reported by CCTV on March 15, our company attaches great importance to it.

" Unified enterprise said that it would carry out necessary rectification actions as required under the supervision of the market supervision bureau and shoulder due social responsibilities. Master Kang, another instant noodle company, said in a statement that Hunan flag Vegetable Industry Co., Ltd. is one of the company's sauerkraut suppliers. Master Kang has immediately suspended its supplier qualification, cancelled all cooperation, sealed its sauerkraut package products, and actively cooperated with the regulatory authorities in investigation and testing.

The company has set up a special team for the first time to take the strictest measures and cooperate with the government regulatory authorities in the investigation and testing of relevant enterprises and products.

The statement said that the incident was a mistake of Master Kang's management and failed to live up to the trust of consumers. Master Kang apologized for this and will take a warning! In the follow-up, we will carry out active rectification under the guidance and supervision of relevant government departments, and thank the media and all sectors of society for their supervision.

At about 10 o'clock last night, the official website of pickled vegetables in the flag industry could not be opened. Shortly after that, KFC issued a statement on its official microblog saying that the flag industry was not a supplier of KFC and had nothing to do with KFC, It has been ordered to immediately remove the false information from the official website.
