Recently, U.S. Republican Senator Rick Scott sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of Commerce Raimondo, questioning the safety of Chinese garlic, claiming that its production methods are unhygienic. As soon as this remark came out, it immediately aroused widespread attention and ridicule. In the letter, Scott made unwarranted accusations about the production process of garlic in China, but could not produce any conclusive evidence. This kind of baseless smear behavior makes people sigh: this senator is really "suspicious" to the extreme.
Chinese garlic has always been a high-quality product in the global market, and has won the love of countless consumers for its unique taste and rich nutrition. China's garlic industry has strict production standards and hygiene regulations to ensure product quality and safety. US Senator Scott's so-called "hygiene" of garlic is complete nonsense.
In the letter, Scott accused China of unhygienic methods of producing garlic, but did not provide any concrete evidence. This kind of fabricated accusation makes one wonder about his motives. Perhaps, he wants to take the opportunity to smear China and sow discord between China and the United States in order to achieve some political goals. This kind of clumsy performance will only make people laugh and be generous.
More interestingly, Scott also said in the letter that the United States should strengthen the regulation of imported food to ensure food safety. This may sound reasonable, but in connection with his previous accusations against Chinese garlic, we can't help but ask: why do US senators care so much about the "hygiene" of Chinese garlic, but turn a blind eye to the loopholes in their own food regulations?
In fact, food safety problems in the United States are endless, from pesticide residues to salmonella infections, from clenbuterol to Sudan dyes. Under such circumstances, it is really unbelievable that US Senator Scott still cares about the "hygiene" of Chinese garlic.
Why did U.S. Senator Rick Scott make groundless accusations against Chinese garlic?What is his real purpose?We hope that he will give a reasonable explanation, and not continue this ridiculous "sanitary" farce.
It is necessary to correct the name of our garlic industry, and at the same time remind US Senator Rick Scott: Don't always be suspicious and smear others. Take care of your own country's affairs first, and then blame others!
