Food safety issues are increasingly arousing public concern. According to a recent survey by Tsinghua University, in 2010, food safety surpassed social security and medical safety to become the safety issue of greatest public concern for the year. In other words, the public has become increasingly uneasy about food safety.

Unscrupulous traders who break through moral bottom lines in pursuit of quick profits have even exposed horrifying food safety incidents such as melamine and Sudan Red, leaving the public lacking a necessary sense of security.บทความมาจากFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/th/11281/

Antibiotic residues in animal products have become one of the important causes of drug-resistant bacteria. A survey by the Rural Development Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences found that among the surveyed farmers, 50% added antibiotics and other drugs to feed to varying degrees. “Illness enters through the mouth” — what exactly should people eat to feel more reassured?บทความมาจากFOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/th/11281/
