Recently, some media exposed that the two Starbucks stores have problems such as the use of expired ingredients, which has aroused heated public opinion. The problem of another big brand has been exposed under the media, which can't help but make people wonder why the head company can't afford to go undercover for food safety.
Undercover media reports pointed out that the ingredients in the Starbucks store involved continued to be used after expiration, and some products were artificially tampered with with the shelf life. On the evening of the 13th, Starbucks China issued a statement saying that after investigation, the stores involved did have irregularities in operation and operation, and the stores had been closed for investigation and rectification, and at the same time, all Starbucks stores Chinese mainland would immediately start a comprehensive self-examination of the implementation of food safety standards.
The Wuxi market supervision department said on the 13th that the preliminary verification of the stores involved had changed the internal control period of food raw materials and used raw materials beyond the internal control period, and had instructed the stores involved to close down for rectification. The market supervision department simultaneously carried out inspections of 82 other Starbucks stores, and found that 15 problems such as employees not wearing work hats, random placement of items in the processing area, and incomplete disinfection records have been ordered to be rectified. The Wuxi market supervision department conducted an administrative interview with Starbucks, requiring the company to conduct a comprehensive self-examination and rectification of the existing food safety problems.
From the fat brothers and Nai Xue's tea to Haidilao, the chain brands in the catering industry are not only the objects of equality in the industry, but also the "golden signboard" in the hearts of consumers. However, these leading companies have failed to withstand the undercover supervision of the media and have been found to have multiple food safety problems, which is staggering.
Food safety is the bottom line that enterprises cannot touch. This truth applies to all catering enterprises. For the head enterprises, it is more important to be cautious under the "magnifying glass" of the public, seriously grasp the food safety issues, fulfill the commitment to consumers, and avoid "moving out of shape".
Food safety is no small matter, expensive in daily life, but also difficult in daily life. Regulatory authorities cannot wait for reporters to go undercover and the media to expose, but should take the initiative to "take a step forward" and strengthen the supervision of food safety in their daily work. Only timely discovery and strict investigation and punishment can prevent problems before they occur and truly protect the "safety on the tip of the tongue" of residents.
