Preface. It's winter, and for many consumers, it's the best time of the year to marinate bacon and make pork sausages. However, this year's pork market has been unusually sluggish, and the average pork has even dropped to 7 per catty5 yuan to 8 yuan, which makes people feel a little abnormal. Compared to previous winters, this year's pork market has been difficult. It has been reported that there are serious epidemics such as African swine fever in some parts of the country, resulting in many pig farmers facing the situation of pig disease and losing their money. In order to avoid economic losses, some pig farmers have expanded the scale of pig slaughter. However, during the slaughtering process, some unscrupulous merchants pick up sick pigs and buy them and put them on the market**. In order to deceive consumers, merchants treat these problems with pig meat in the same way as normal pork.
Although we can't be sure of what is advertised online"Borax pork"True or false, but from a security point of view, we should still be vigilant. When buying pork, there are a few things we can do to avoid buying problematic pork. This article will discuss and summarize from the following three aspects.
About identifying the color of pork.
Normal pork should be bright red or slightly pink in color, while dead pork tends to be pale red or dark red in color. In order to cover up the unusual color of diseased pork, traders can wipe the surface of the pork with a towel dipped in special substances to make it look the same as normal pork. Therefore, when consumers buy pork, they can judge the quality of pork by observing the color of the pork. If you find that the color of the pig meat is abnormal, you should carefully consider whether to buy it.
About low-priced pork.
Because sick and dead pork is so different from normal pork, it is often difficult for traders to mix it**. To combat this, vendors often pick sick pork separately and then sell it cheaply in the name of freezing or thawing overnight pork**. If consumers encounter pork that is too high, they should carefully distinguish the authenticity of the product to avoid buying inferior products.
About the importance of inspection and quarantine certificates.
Pork sold regularly is usually inspected and quarantined, and a red or blue seal is affixed to the skin. This seal is a guarantee of the quality and safety of pork. Therefore, consumers should pay attention to whether there is an inspection and quarantine certificate when buying pork. If pork is found to have not been inspected and quarantined, it may be problem pork and should be purchased with caution.
In short, we should pay attention to these three situations when buying pork: pork with abnormal color, pork with too low ** and pork without inspection and quarantine certificate. When selecting pork in the market, you must pay attention and carefully identify the quality and safety of pork to protect your health.
