Some time ago, the poisonous beer incident can be said to be in a uproar, and many people can't imagine that the drinks we often drink in our daily life can overturn, but before the dust settles on the poisonous beer incident, another very common drink in our lives has overturned!
According to a message released by the global network today, it can be seen that on the 25th, AFP claimed in the name of the French General Directorate General for Health
Nestlé's "Perrier" water source is suspected to have been contaminated with bacteria in the feces, and the batch of "Perrier" in question was ordered to be destroyed as a precaution.
According to the local health authority in France, about 2 million bottles of sparkling mineral water were ordered to be destroyed, and most of these "Perrier" were produced between March 10 and 14.
For a long time, Perrier has been sold as a high-end sparkling mineral water in China, and is deeply loved by mid-to-high-end people because of its unique taste and artistic production and packaging.
According to the data provided by Baidu Encyclopedia, in most supermarkets in China, the retail price of Perrier is almost 10 yuan (the price is subject to the Beijing area), but the supermarket itself faces a very wide range of people, so it is not the main channel of Perrier in the Chinese market.
As early as the 20th century, Perrier has entered its own brand into the global bar culture, using its own slightly sweet taste and natural gas bubble taste, it has also won its own place in the bar culture, and in the development of bar culture, the compatibility between Perrier and alcohol is getting higher and higher, and it has become an indispensable drink in many bars.
Of course, compared with the parity of the supermarket, the price of Perrier in the bar is very significant, 15 yuan higher than that of the supermarket, but even so, the sales of Perrier in the bar are always higher than that of the supermarket.
Not only bars, but also many high-end hotels, there are also "Perrier" figures, and this kind of high-end sparkling mineral water appears in this kind of place, the price is even more expensive, almost a bottle of sparkling water can be bought for about 40 yuan a bottle, relying on their own selling points There are still many people who buy it.
In many five-star hotels, this mineral water has become a free drinking water for VIP guests, which shows that the market for this mineral water is still very large.
But even so, the health and safety of Perrier water is still not fully guaranteed, and according to the news reports of many official media, the food safety and quality of Perrier water has really overturned this time.
Although the French Health Service has made corresponding rectifications and destroyed 2 million bottles of sparkling water, it is still somewhat psychological for consumers.
According to a report by the Global Times in February this year, it can be seen that it is not the first time that Nestle has overturned this year, and Radio France broke the news at the end of January this year that Nestle had defrauded consumers.
Under the banner of "pure natural mineral water", they sell fake mineral water that is "made" from "polluted water" according to the tap water process.
As soon as this news came out, not only many consumers in China were very angry, but even local consumers in France couldn't sit still.
This incident also made French mineral water a laughing stock in the world, 30% of the mineral water on the French market was found to have this kind of fake behavior, and in the follow-up investigation, it was also found that this processed "polluted water" not only does not have minerals that are beneficial to the human body in the mineral water, but also has a lot of chemical pollution and bacteria remaining.
Taken together, the French luxury sparkling mineral water in our eyes seems to have become a joke, and it is very likely that "Perrier" will cause a serious decline in its own sales because of these two incidents.
In fact, it is not difficult to find that in today's life, mineral water has always been very marketable at home and abroad, according to the content of Baidu Encyclopedia, mineral water is rich in a lot of minerals that are beneficial to the human body, and relying on the convenience of drinking can be purchased anywhere, carry and other multiple advantages by consumers.
But it is precisely because of the good market prospects, the mineral water market has also attracted the attention of many black-hearted traders, due to the colorless and tasteless mineral water, it is difficult for consumers to distinguish whether there is a certain potential risk in the mineral water they buy, so for our health, it is recommended that when we buy mineral water, try to buy through regular channels and drink it in moderation.
