Yang Xue, manager of Nanyao Market: "After receiving the notice, we immediately asked all the owners to rectify, and our owners were also very cooperative. ”
According to the staff of the Zhifu District Market Supervision Bureau, as a cold light source, the "fresh lamp" will not affect the quality of food due to the heat emitted, but it will make the fresh meat look delicious and ruddy, full of luster, and affect consumers' decision-making judgment with false appearance.
Wang Peng, Food Production and Circulation Section of Zhifu District Market Supervision Bureau: "We are now under the normal light source, without changing the color of the meat, the meat is also very fresh, but its color is relatively light, consumers can easily distinguish the freshness of the meat when purchasing, you see this is under the illumination of the fresh lamp, its meat color will turn red, and then consumers may not be able to distinguish the quality and freshness of the meat when purchasing." ”
In the next step, the Zhifu District Market Supervision Bureau will carry out uninterrupted inspections to ensure that the market completely bans fresh lights, so that the public can buy assured meat.
