Fan Paopao in Wenchuan
Lou Jianjian in Shanghai and the murderous milk powder incident
Although the "murderous milk powder" incident only occurred in rural areas of Fuyang, Anhui Province for the time being , but soon caused a nationwide impact. This is related to the counterfeit wine, poisonous wine, carcinogenic inferior rice that have appeared in some places in recent years, as well as the adulteration of non-edible raw materials formaldehyde, sulfur dioxide, sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate (white lump) into grain products by criminals, and the use of mineral oil. Spray-coating biscuits, using sulfur and industrial salt to keep bamboo shoots fresh, using diseased and spoiled sow meat to make "fresh" meat floss, etc., are all shocking, and it makes people feel that the food safety situation is extremely serious.
It is true that since cities have begun to implement market access systems, it has become more difficult for low-quality and harmful foods to enter the urban market, so they have flooded into rural markets, making rural areas a dumping ground for low-quality and harmful foods. But even so , if the general environment of market supervision does not fundamentally change, and counterfeit and shoddy products are difficult to prevent and continue to be banned, it will be difficult for urban residents to guarantee that they will be free from the disaster of inferior food. China has a large population, poor awareness of environmental protection, and low quality of living environment. Environmental pollution outside of agriculture will inevitably endanger crops and their products. However, the source pollution of agricultural and animal husbandry planting and breeding is serious, and the abuse of pesticides and veterinary drugs leads to harmful residues. Excessive quantity has also become an important factor affecting food hygiene. A city resident with a high income may not buy low-priced and unreliable milk powder, but when he buys a carp in a supermarket in the city, he may not know that the fish farmer has spread a layer of ciprofloxacin on the bottom of the fish pond. , if you eat too much of this fish, many medicines will lose their effect once you get sick. Don't think that "killer milk powder" is far away from the lives of urban residents. In fact, each of us may become a victim of inferior food.
Since ancient times, China has had a traditional morality of "do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you." Nowadays, many people who produce and sell inferior food are very aware of the dangers of inferior food and act out of self-protection They never "reap the consequences" of their own needs. They "do to others what they do not want others to do to them." A person knows that the products he produces and sells will seriously endanger the health and lives of others, but in order to seek benefits and make huge profits, he still allows his products to endanger society. What kind of behavior is this? This is a typical example of seeking profit and forgetting one's righteousness, and it is an out-and-out attempt to seek wealth and murder! It is said that Zhang, a farmer in Linquan County, Fuyang, runs a stall selling snacks and daily groceries. Unfortunately, his son is also a victim of "murderous milk powder". However, when the reporter asked Zhang whether he would strictly control the purchase of goods in the future, he said Frankly speaking, no matter whether it is genuine or fake, good or bad, as long as the price is right, he will accept it. I wonder if those who produce and sell inferior food have ever thought that in fact, every producer and operator is also a consumer. If everyone is not afraid of making money and killing people, then sooner or later, they themselves will become the targets of murder. !
In addition to strengthening market supervision, ensuring food safety, and rebuilding business ethics, the "murderous milk powder" incident has brought us much more vigilance and thinking.
