After work on a work day
Always the sleepiest moment
There's a drink to refresh at this time
It's pretty good
I believe that some people also choose the "Starbucks" with good reputation
However recently
Starbucks stall is in trouble...
It was exposed that there was a food safety problem!
On the morning of December 13
@Starbucks China via the official Weibo
On "Two stores in Wuxi involved in food safety issues"
Responded
Reports have been paid to two Starbucks stores in Wuxi. We are deeply shocked by the food safety issues covered in the report. We are highly concerned about this incident, and have closed these two stores at the first time and immediately launched an in-depth investigation.
@Starbucks China said that since entering the Chinese market for 22 years, we have been committed to implementing strict food safety standards and resolutely adopting a zero-tolerance attitude towards food safety issues. We welcome the public and the media to conduct continuous supervision of us.

According to the Beijing News
The reporter recently had two Starbucks stores in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province
An undercover investigation found
Stores touch the red line of food safety
Ingredients continue to be used after they expire
It is sold as a number of best-selling drinks
Supervisors and clerks "teach by example" to tamper with the shelf life
Some ingredients are artificially "extended" for a week
A pastry that promises to "stay overnight after opening"
Sneaked on the shelves the next day...
Undercover investigation at this store
The reporter's investigation found
Chocolate liquor and matcha liquor after expiring of shelf life
The clerk didn't follow the rules
End-of-life disposal
The reporter saw it at the scene
More than once, the clerk used the expired chocolate liquor
Make drinks for customers
These include the best-selling breakfast drink, cocoa steam
As the investigation deepens
The reporter found that expired ingredients were used in the store
Not a special case
It's a well-known practice between supervisors and clerks
On this note
Write the expiration time of some ingredients
But in the eyes of the clerk
There is nothing wrong with these ingredients
You can still use them to make drinks for your customers
The act of using expired ingredients to "cover up"
Shelf life labels for some ingredients
It is often tampered with at will
It's not just the ingredients for drinks
The pastries sold in this store also have problems
Although Starbucks has many stores
Promise that the pastry after opening will not be sold
It will be scrapped on the same day
But the reporter found out when he went undercover
The reality is not what they promised
Some stores sell the pastries left over from the previous day
Then sell the new one of the day
Except for the problem of ingredients
Starbucks stores also have hygiene concerns
In accordance with Starbucks internal regulations
There is a towel specially wiped at the bar
Clean up the trash cans
Another cleaning cloth should be used
But in fact, this store did not do as required
After wiping the trash can with a towel at the bar
You can also continue to use it
According to a clerk
The superior management department of the store
I check in the store every half a month
But since there was only one inspector
The clerk can take advantage of it while inspecting other items
Timely disposal of substandard food
See these things
Neighbors are worried about the quality of Starbucks
That Starbucks in Guangzhou
Will there be a similar problem?
December 13
"DV Live" reporter visited two Starbucks stores in Guangzhou
After ordering a cup of Mocha Star Ice Hockey
We ask to see the raw materials
The clerk also generously displayed one of the raw materials
The shelf life label of mocha sauce
But
The reporter found that the dates were all with stickers
Handwritten and then pasted on
Whether there is tampering cannot be determined
And in terms of pastries
The clerk said that they had only arrived this morning
And let the reporter check it out
The croissants in it are thawed and used for a limited period of time
Unlike mocha sauce
The labels of the pastries are printed rather than handwritten
Old Han said: Starbucks, don't smash your own signboard
Now there are fewer and fewer young people drinking tea, and they want to drink coffee? Since Starbucks entered the Chinese market, it should be said that it has brought far less than coffee, but the so-called comprehensive experience, coffee culture.
For many white-collar workers and many young people, Starbucks stores are the "third space" outside the home and office. So how many Stores does Starbucks have in China? 5100 homes. As for how many consumers it has in China, it is impossible to count.
However, consumers certainly did not expect that the coffee brand they trust, which claims to be the world's first, has some stores that have long used expired ingredients and food shelf life labels to change at will, including scrapped pastries re-listed.
The most terrifying thing is that this is not the personal behavior of the clerk, but the organized and planned "unspoken rules" implemented under the leadership of the supervisor. Oh, and towels shared with those coffee machines and trash cans. We must thank these undercover reporters for making us aware of the other side of Starbucks.
Hey, is this the "highest standard in the industry" that your official website claims? Smashing their own signboards, many netizens are no longer afraid to help.
Over the years, food safety incidents have repeatedly refreshed consumer perceptions, including my old Han is often stunned. But why do heavyweight foreign brands such as Starbucks also expose scandals from time to time? They don't have to do that on their home soil. Could it be bullying us Chinese consumers? I think it is still necessary to strengthen supervision and improve relevant laws and regulations, the cost of breaking the law is too low!
