The Zhenhai District Market Regulatory Administration recently conducted rapid inspections on seasonal food during the Tomb-sweeping Festival. A total of 12 batches of seasonal foods and fruits such as fried glutinous pudding, longan, and cherry potatoes were selected for rapid inspection, and all tested qualified.
In the market, law enforcement officials selected seasonal foods with high attention as key inspection targets based on consumer demands to carry out rapid inspections, with a focus on monitoring conventional pesticide residues such as carbofuran and nitrite, as well as food additives. At the same time as spot checks, law enforcement personnel also carefully inspected the environmental hygiene, end products and raw material storage of the market places, so as to strictly prevent situations such as exceeding the shelf life and non-compliant labeling.
"As a popular business and trading venue during the Tomb-sweeping Festival, the market is a natural place for commodity circulation and trading." A relevant person in charge of the Zhenhai District Market Regulatory Administration said that during the sampling of relevant food, the working staff also popularized food selection knowledge, food safety knowledge, and relevant laws and regulations and spread consumer case warnings among the public who came to purchase, reminding them to scientifically and rationally choose regular seasonal food channels.
