In recent times, including Beijing, Hebei, Chongqing, Guangdong and other places of food and drug regulatory authorities have carried out a "five hairs of zero" centralized rectification action. Beijing, for example, cleared the five wholesale markets of unqualified small food, in the city under the shelves of 6,100 kg of food at risk, issued administrative guidance, ordered to correct 344 notices, to give warnings or file 102 cases. The efforts to rectify are very strong.
may 25, the State Council Food safety office held a teleconscing meeting with the Ministry of Education and the State Administration of Food and Drug Administration, with special emphasis on ensuring food safety on campus.
"five-haired snack" generally refers to those cheap, heavy taste and poor nutrition of "small food", such as spicy bars, puffed food, dried vegetables and so on. There is a certain basis for restricting and guiding consumers, especially teenagers, to eat less "five-haired snacks". "Five-hair snack" high oil, high salt, high sugar total accounted for one or two, eating these foods will affect appetite, so that children do not like to eat dinner, thus hindering their normal nutritional intake, affecting their growth and development.
Beijing Food Safety Monitoring and Risk Assessment Center for 97 "five-hair snack" samples of several nutritional content was measured, according to the test results, the average sodium content of the sample is 2113mg/ 100g, eat less than 2 such products, sodium intake is the recommended daily intake of adults; In other words, children eat only one or two packs of such small foods a day, salt and fat to reach the daily intake of the body needs.
population survey also proved that China's children's nutritional intake is "severe", almost from the beginning of infants and young children have excessive sodium and sugar intake. However, there are many reasons, children eat a lot of "five-hair snacks" "sugary drinks" is also one of the reasons.
local governments are consciously controlling the entry of small food into campuses. Beijing's education department, for example, issued a document in 2013 that would not allow small food-selling shops to be opened within 200 meters of the campus and its surroundings. That is to say, these small shops in principle can only sell stationery and other items, can not sell spicy bars, instant noodles, carbonated drinks and other small food.
, of course, from a practical point of view, these provisions may not be well implemented, otherwise they will not be centralized now. In fact, "five-hair snacks" repeatedly banned, the reason is very simple, students want to eat these things, and the small shop is profitable, both buyers and sellers have demand.
this centralized corrective action is the relevant departments want to protect the nutritional health of students through supervision, the starting point is of course very good, but in the actual implementation may encounter some problems.
media reports, most of the food that has been taken off the shelves are referred to as "risk food" rather than "unqualified food", which is questionable in terms of the reasonableness of law enforcement. If the manufacturer is legally produced and the dealer is legally sold wholesale, some people may not understand that it is now being de-marketed on the grounds of "health risks". A more appropriate approach, of course, is to test each of these products, check out the non-conforming on the off-shelf. However, if this is done, many products that are only high oil and high salt may have no reason to go off the shelves, because china does not have a limit on the amount of oil and salt in food.
, the goal of the crackdown is to focus on "five-haired snacks", but there is no clear classification criteria for "five-haired snacks", which will increase the randomness of law enforcement. Because if the "high oil, high salt, high sugar" or "nutrition single" as the reason for the rectification, then primary and secondary school students can be exposed to "unhealthy food" far more than these categories. Pancakes, kebabs, French fries, instant noodles, carbonated drinks, etc. all have reason to be on the list, and these things students love to eat.
the author has seen the current situation of rural children's diet. Indeed, they like to eat "five-haired snacks". Not only that, many parents, grandparents also buy them these food. These parents don't have much knowledge of nutrition and health, and if their children want to eat, they buy them whatever they can afford.
in many remote areas, perhaps a child would be happy to eat a packet of "five-haired snacks" - and, of course, if they could eat an authentic chocolate.
can I buy for 5 cents and 1 yuan? In the city, you can't even buy a big apple, a can of pure milk or a pack of nuts. The reason why "five-haired snacks" are attractive is probably because they are so cheap. Whether rural or urban, if many families can earn more, parents' health knowledge can be more, probably do not need to focus on rectification, the vast majority of "five-hair snacks" will disappear from the market.
