Chapter 212: Industrial Gelatin

Ye Zhengzheng handed over the mobile phone to Hu Niu, and then went back to the room to check it on the computer.

It turned out that something did happen on the Internet, and the incident originated in Hong Kong.

A few days ago, the Department of Health of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government found that the chromium content of a pharmaceutical factory's "Special Powerful Anti-inflammatory Capsules" exceeded the standard in a random inspection. After testing, the chromium content came from the capsule, which far exceeded the specified level. Eating large amounts of chromium may damage the respiratory tract, heart, intestines, liver, kidneys, etc., and even lead to death.

After further investigation, it was found that these "hollow capsules" came from suppliers in Nanyue.

I thought it was only an incident in the Hong Kong pharmaceutical industry, and the companies in Nanyue deliberately cheated them. But soon, events unfolded beyond imagination.

In this evening, Huaxia CCTV's "Weekly Quality Report" reported on the problem of some pharmaceutical manufacturers using chromium capsules to produce drugs, and announced to the outside world three large pharmaceutical companies in Huaxia.

The same problem as in Hong Kong is also due to the excessive chromium content of the "hollow capsules". The difference is that the hollow capsules of these pharmaceutical manufacturers are produced by their own enterprises, and the root cause of the problem lies in the raw materials.

Although the gelatin is imported by the three pharmaceutical manufacturers from the three gelatin production companies, they are all "industrial gelatin".

Generally speaking, qualified gelatin is extracted from animal fresh skin and aggregate, and after 6 rubber extraction processes, the extracted gelatin is evaporated and dried, and finally mixed according to a number of control indicators to form a finished product, which is called edible gelatin.

Edible gelatin is a food additive allowed by the state and is widely used in the food field. For example, ice cream, yogurt, cheese, gummies, toffee, ham sausage, sauced beef, soy sauce, etc. But in order to reduce costs and get more profits, many unscrupulous businessmen use "industrial gelatin" instead.

The price of raw materials for 1 ton of regular edible gelatin is as high as 2,000-3,000 yuan. If you purchase garbage leather treated by toxic and harmful industrial raw materials from the tannery, the cost of 1 ton is only 100-200 yuan.

Marx once said. "If there is 100% profit, the capitalists will take risks; If there is a 200% profit, the capitalists will flout the law; If there is a 300% profit, then the capitalists will trample everything in the world! ”

Now the cost is more than ten times different, if the relevant departments do not carry out strict supervision. Who doesn't take risks?

Among the three gelatin producers surveyed, Nanyue Jiadali Gelatin Co., Ltd. is one of the larger gelatin producers, processing more than 9,000 tonnes of edible gelatin annually from waste leathers, mainly for the production of yogurt, candy and jelly.

It was precisely like this, I thought it was a matter of pharmaceutical companies, but it was extended to the food industry, which caused a heated discussion on the Internet.

"The conscience of these businesses has been eaten by dogs!"

"In Huaxia, what else can I eat with confidence? Mineral water? ”

"Upstairs, you're wrong, have you forgotten about the [Water Source Gate]?"

"Original. We have been eating leather shoes and paying tribute to Master Chaplin! ”

"Why does this kind of thing always have to be exposed by the media, where did the relevant departments go?"

……

Netizens have accused, in addition to accusing the conscience of the company, and at the same time criticizing the inaction of the department.

Unlike Europe and the United States and other countries, Huaxia implements the opposite "strict in and wide out" implementation system, when giving you a food license. The vetting of you is so strict that many business owners are looking for connections everywhere.

And once the business owner gets the license. If you have a department, you don't bother to take the time to care about what the hell you produce, and only occasionally do a spot check.

It is precisely because of this that even the baby's milk powder is not safe now, so that the Chinese people can only go to Hong Kong to buy it, and go to Australia to buy it.

"Nirvana Food Group? Finished! ”

Unlike other people's anger, Ye Zhengzheng was very happy at this time. Because among the suppliers of Gadaly gelatin. Ye Zhengzheng saw that the name of Fugui Food Group was resolutely listed, and knew that Niu Fugui was no longer able to return to the sky.

Previously, Fugui Food still had the possibility of survival, after all, it was mainly affected by small loans and food production bases, and its main business was still very healthy. Only nowadays. The industrial gelatin affair broke out, and everything was going to end.

It's just that things are very helpless, and even Niu Fugui, a stable boss, finally chose industrial gelatin, a low-cost raw material. As you can imagine, this is definitely not a problem for individual businesses, but for the food industry as a whole.

Excessive chromium is actually a big or small problem, and death is a theoretical thing after all. And even if it is because of the chromium exceeding the standard to death, I am afraid that this kind of thing will be silent, if before this kind of thing, who would have thought that eating candy would also kill people?

"Brother Politics, should I eat or not?"

Tiger Girl ran in from outside and put her phone on the table. Although Zuo Chuchu repeatedly told her just now, she was not very firm in her heart, and she wanted to hear Ye Zhengzheng's opinion at this time.

"I can't eat it!" Ye Zhengzheng shook his head helplessly.

"How wasteful is that? And I've been eating it all the time, and I don't see anything happening! The tiger girl looked up at her with a round face.

"Yes, it's a waste!" Ye Zheng nodded, reached out and touched her head, "Go and take out all the snacks you hid, I'll pick them!" ”

"Okay!" Tiger Niu nodded, then turned back to the room to search.

I'm afraid that tonight, many people will seem uneasy. Every family is carefully checking what is made from old leather shoes and can no longer be eaten. Nowadays, not only milk powder has to be bought abroad, but this yogurt also has to rely on foreign countries.

I'm afraid that various food companies will also be busy at this time, but the first thing they think of is definitely not to change their ways, but how to find relationships to avoid this turmoil.

Fortunately, when the police came to arrest the other two gelatin manufacturers, their person in charge got a tip-off and burned down the factory, destroying all the current accounts.

After a while, Ye Zhengzheng turned off the computer and walked to the tiger girl's room. And the tiger girl stood there embarrassed, with a small pile of snacks piled up on the bed, which made Ye Zhengzheng speechless for a while, but he didn't expect this little girl to hide so much.

"Anything else?" Ye Zhengzheng looked at this little girl helplessly.

"It's gone!" Tiger Girl tilted her head and shook her head vaguely.

"Go take a shower!" Ye Zhengzheng pinched her big pie face with both hands, and this little girl didn't forget to stuff a few into her mouth at this time.

"Hmm!" Tiger Niu nodded, then turned and walked towards the bathroom.

When the tiger girl finished taking a bath, Ye Zhengzheng had already sorted the snacks, and things were better than he imagined. This tiger girl likes candy well, but it's all traditional hard candy. (To be continued......)
