Honey, aged vinegar, rice wine... Shanxi these 4 batches of substandard food purchase should be careful

Food Partner Network News Recently, the Shanxi Provincial Market Supervision Administration released the 31st food safety supervision and sampling information in 2022, and 4 batches of
unqualified food were detected.

 

Among them, 3 batches of food were detected with quality index problems, namely Qingquan Jing Shanxi aged vinegar (brewed vinegar) sold by Datong Gudu Star Commercial Management Co.
, Ltd.
and claimed to be produced by Shanxi Bulaoquan Food Co.
, Ltd.
, of which non-volatile acid (in terms of lactic acid) did not meet the provisions of the national food safety standards; The white sugar sold by Huairenjiali supermarket of Shanxi Jilongsi Trading Co.
, Ltd.
and produced by Shanxi Jiajiali Logistics and Distribution Co.
, Ltd.
, in which the reduced sugar does not meet the provisions of the national food safety standards; The rice wine sold by Xiongjie Supermarket in Yuci District, Jinzhong City, and claimed to be produced by Daixian Daikang Industrial Co.
, Ltd.
, Shanxi Province, does not meet the provisions
of the national food safety standard for amino acid nitrogen.

 

Non-volatile acid is a kind of total acid in vinegar, mainly lactic acid, which can make the sour taste of vinegar long, soft and delicious
.
The lack of volatile acid content will affect the taste and flavor
of vinegar to a certain extent.
The reason for the unqualified non-volatile acid may be caused by
improper control of fermentation process and lax factory inspection during production and processing.

 

Reducing sugars refer to sugars with reducing properties, including glucose, fructose, galactose, lactose and maltose
.
Reducing sugar is one of the quality indicators of sugar, and reducing sugar with high sugar content will affect the quality of the product, easy to absorb moisture, and is not conducive to storage
.
The reason for the unqualified detection value of reducing sugar may be caused by the low purity of raw materials and improper control of production process, or may be related to
improper control of transportation and storage conditions.

 

Amino acid nitrogen is one of the characteristic quality indicators of rice wine, and the higher the amino acid nitrogen content in rice wine, the mellow and delicious
taste.
The amino acid nitrogen is part of the flavor of
rice wine.
The amino acid nitrogen does not meet the requirements specified in the standard, mainly due to the short fermentation cycle of rice wine or improper addition of koji used for fermentation, resulting in poor coordination of the wine body in rice wine and affecting the taste
.

 

In addition, one batch of honey was detected with veterinary drug residues, which was Didi Xiaomi (soil honey) produced by the Shanxi Shanliquan Beekeeping Professional Cooperative sold by Jincheng Gushuyuan Industry and Trade Co.
, Ltd.
Wande Fulongwan Store, of which metronidazole did not meet the national
food safety standards.

 

Metronidazole is a derivative of nitroimidazoles and is widely used to fight anaerobic infections
.
Long-term consumption of foods containing such drugs by the human body may cause pathogenic bacteria to develop resistance to these antibacterial drugs, resulting in digestive tract symptoms, nervous system symptoms, skin symptoms, etc
.
The National Food Safety Standard Maximum Residue Limits for Veterinary Drugs in Food (GB 31650-2019) stipulates that metronidazole is a veterinary drug
that is allowed for therapeutic use, but must not be detected in animal food.
The reason for the detection of metronidazole may be that in order to quickly control the epidemic disease during the breeding process, the illegal increase in the amount of medication or the non-compliance with the provisions of the drug rest period lead to the detection of products on the market
.

 

In response to the unqualified products found in the above-mentioned random inspections, the Shanxi Provincial Market Supervision Administration has supervised the municipal market supervision departments to deal with them in accordance with
relevant laws and regulations.
If consumers find reported substandard food in the market, they can call 12315 to complain and report
