We have been discussing food safety for a long, long time, but the problem has not been solved. Sam's Club is here, and the main focus is on safe food, and everyone is squeezing into it like they have found a lifesaver. Sounds ironic, doesn't it? At their doorstep, they have to rely on foreign supermarkets to ensure the safety of food.
Building a mobile phone, a car, or even a big airplane requires a lot of technology, but when it comes to producing clean and hygienic food, it shouldn't be more difficult than these, right? There are so many people who can do anything for money. Poisoned milk powder, gutter oil, counterfeit medicines...... These things sound like a repetition of the disgraceful history of a hundred years ago. At that time, it was foreigners who sent opium to us, but now it is good, and my own family has begun to harm my own family. If Old Man Lin Zexu knew, he would probably be so angry that he would crawl out of the grave and burn the Tiger Gate again!
Why are these people so bold? Mainly because the cost of violating the law is too low. If you eat something problematic, you may not have any reaction at the time, and when something really goes wrong, who can remember which meal is wrong? Even if it is found, at most it will be fined, and it will be able to make a comeback. This kind of punishment of "small fights" is simply emboldening the lawbreakers.
What's even more troublesome is that some black-hearted businesses still have a protective umbrella behind them, and the supervision is like tickling, and they can't touch the pain at all. As a result, the consumer becomes the ultimate victim. In the long run, this is not only a threat to personal health, but also a big test of the entire social integrity system. If even the most basic food cannot be guaranteed, how can we talk about national development and national rejuvenation?
The government must step up its efforts to raise the cost of violating the law; The regulatory authorities should also harden their wrists and not always engage in formalism; As for the common people, they must learn to keep their eyes open and choose reputable merchants to buy food. After all, you only have one life, and health is king. I hope that one day, I can buy safe ingredients at my own doorstep, and I no longer envy the good things of others. When the time comes, you can also proudly say: "The table of the Chinese, you have the final say!" ”
The problem of food safety is actually a system engineering, involving all aspects. From the farm to the table, every link must be strictly controlled. For example, the use of pesticides should be standardized and should not be exceeded; The processing process should be transparent and not cut corners; The sales process should be honest and not shoddy. These seemingly simple requirements are actually not easy to implement. It is necessary for the relevant departments to formulate practical standards and strictly implement them. At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen the professional ethics education of employees, so that they can understand that their behavior is directly related to the health and happiness of thousands of families.
In addition, the awareness of consumers themselves is also important. Many people only look at the price and not the quality when buying things, which gives unscrupulous merchants an opportunity. The notion that spending money on health is definitely much more cost-effective than spending money on curing a disease. Learn more basic food safety knowledge and learn to distinguish between true and fake, so as to better protect yourself and your family.
Of course, it is not enough for consumers to do it themselves, and the role of the media cannot be ignored. By exposing typical cases and exposing the shady scenes of the industry, it can play a good warning role. Let those who try to exploit the loopholes know that once discovered, the consequences will be very serious. This will not only deter potential offenders, but also boost public confidence.
In short, food safety is a long-term and arduous task that requires the joint efforts of the whole society to achieve results. Governments, businesses, and everyone has a responsibility to get involved in creating a safer and healthier eating environment. When everyone can eat food that is safe to eat, that's real progress.
