The afternoon sun shines through the windows of the cafeteria, and the ground is dappled with light and shadow, which should be a happy time for children to enjoy delicious food and replenish energy, but a strange smell comes from the dining table, casting a shadow.
"Why does this meat smell weird?" A little boy pinched his nose and looked at the braised pork on the plate, having no appetite at all
It seems to stink a little," the girl sitting across from him echoed, putting down the chopsticks in her hand
The children's innocent words are like a pebble, and the calm lake surface stirs up ripples, and the discussion about the "strange meat" in the canteen begins to ferment, and uneasiness spreads among parents
Some parents recalled that after their children came home recently, they occasionally said that their stomachs were uncomfortable, and they were not at ease at that time, and the children had diarrhea and vomiting.
Angry parents gathered at the school to ask for an explanation, but in the face of parents' questions, the school leader explained lightly: "It may be that there are some problems in the process of transporting ingredients, and we will strengthen management to ensure food safety.
Parents didn't buy it, and they asked to see the canteen's food procurement records and hygiene permits, but the school refused to do so on various grounds
In order to find out the truth and protect the children's health, the parents decided to organize themselves and conduct surprise inspections of the school cafeteria
Pushing open the door of the back kitchen of the canteen, a pungent smell came to my face, and the vision was even more shocking: on the board, there were some blackened and smelly meats; In the cold storage, the temperature of the stored meat is obviously not up to standard, and some meat has begun to rot and deteriorate
"How can this be fresh meat? It's clearly spoiled stinky meat! A parent angrily pointed to the meat,
In the face of ironclad evidence, the school finally could no longer quibble that the canteen did use expired ingredients, and promised to seriously deal with the relevant responsible persons
Behind this "stinky meat incident", is it management negligence, or is there another hidden story?
Parents found that the supply of ingredients for the school turned out to be a company that had been established for less than half a year, and this company had no previous experience in catering services, but won the bid for the school food supply project at a low price
"Where does such a hasty selection of ingredient suppliers put the health of the children in the first place?" Parents are increasingly skeptical of the school
After the "stinky meat incident" was exposed by the media, it quickly aroused social attention, and the cameras of CCTV reporters were aimed at those shocking pictures and those who tried to cover up the truth
In the face of reporters' questions, the school leaders flickered and tried to shift the responsibility to the canteen management, and the smiling female vice principal caused strong dissatisfaction among the parents
"The safety of our children is our top priority in our ......," she said blisteringly after saying two incorrect calls, leaving angry parents and a mess on the floor
The occurrence of the "stinky meat incident" sounded the alarm bell of campus food safety, and the school, as a place for teaching and educating people, should not only impart knowledge, but also protect the healthy growth of children
The voices of parents should also be heard and valued, and their supervision of the school is a love for the children and a responsibility for food safety
We will wait and see how to deal with the follow-up of the "stinky meat incident", but more importantly, how to prevent the recurrence of such incidents from the root requires the joint efforts of schools, parents and all sectors of society
There is no shortcut to food safety, and children's health cannot be compromised, so let's work together to protect children's "safety on the tip of the tongue" and let them grow up happily in a healthy environment
The discussion about the "stinky meat incident" has intensified, and netizens have reposted relevant reports and @ local education departments, calling for a thorough investigation of the matter
In the face of huge public pressure, the local education bureau and market supervision department quickly intervened, set up a joint investigation team, and stationed in the school to carry out an investigation
The investigators were divided into two groups, one group obtained the school canteen procurement records, purchase vouchers, and canteen surveillance videos, and the other group conducted sampling tests on the ingredients involved and conducted a comprehensive inspection of the health status of the school canteen
As the investigation deepened, the truth of the "stinky meat incident" gradually surfaced
In order to reduce costs, the school cafeteria signed a supply contract with a supplier of infully qualified ingredients, and in order to make huge profits, the company sent some expired and spoiled meat to the students' tables after simple processing
In terms of schools, the qualification of food suppliers is not strictly reviewed, and there are serious loopholes in the management of canteens, which gives "stinky meat" a chance to take advantage of it, and eventually causes a catastrophe
After the results of the investigation were announced, people from all walks of life were in an uproar, and people could never have imagined that such a shocking thing would happen in the sacred temple of teaching and educating people
Those educators who are supposed to take care of the healthy growth of children have actually put their black hands on children's plates for small profits, putting them in danger
"What about conscience? What about morality? Don't you care about the health of your children at all? One parent asked emotionally when interviewed
In the face of public outrage, the local education department quickly responded, severely dealt with the school principal and relevant responsible persons, and ordered the school to comprehensively rectify the management of the canteen and strengthen food safety education
The market supervision department also filed a case for investigation of the food supplier involved, and investigated the legal responsibility of the relevant responsible persons in accordance with the law
The results of the "stinky meat incident" reflect the importance of relevant departments to food safety and the dignity of the law
How can we prevent the recurrence of such incidents in the first place? How can we ensure that children can eat with peace of mind? This is not only the responsibility of schools and education departments, but also the responsibility of society as a whole
Schools should effectively strengthen the management of canteens, establish and improve the food safety management system, and strictly implement the standardized operation of food procurement, storage, processing and other links to ensure food safety
Parents should enhance their awareness of food safety, actively participate in the supervision and management of school canteens, find and reflect problems in a timely manner, and jointly protect the children's "safety on the tip of the tongue"
All sectors of society should work together to create a good atmosphere for paying attention to food safety, intensify the crackdown on food safety violations, and make those who try to defy the law pay a heavy price
Only with the joint efforts of the whole society can we weave a dense food safety "protective net" and let children grow up healthy and happy
