Food Safety: The Danger behind Malatang As the saying goes, “food is the first necessity of the people”. Indeed food, as the first factor of survival, plays a very significant role in our daily lives. In recent years, however, the food safety issues seems to be emerging in an endless stream, which leads the public to generate a lot of doubts and fears to what they eat.

Let me give an example, on the way to work or study, we can see there are many food stalls on the roadside. They sell a kind of food named Malatang, which in fact, equal to some fried bean curd and beef with cayenne pepper. From the appearance, the Malatang seems bright and attractive; as for the taste, you may get some clues as seeing people eating like wolves and tigers.

You might wonder: how could there be any danger behind these delicious foods like Malatang? But the truth is, the more attractive it looks, the greater it tastes, the more dangerous it could be. Driven by the interests, the venders are determined to make money by fair means or foul. During the production of the food, they perpetrate frauds and adulterate the quality.

Secret one: chicken soup.The soup is mostly made with cheap chicken bones, and will be used repeatedly, sometimes in order to provide freshness, chicken essence is needed too. In addition, those in the name of "Malatang" soup, in fact, are all water.

Secret two: vegetables. Leftovers and fresh vegetables are put together, looks like there is no difference when boiled. In this way， It not only makes no waste, but also save a great amount of cost. If you worry about the leftovers will be too tired out, the snack vender often covered it with a piece of cloth, sprayed with water, so that the dishes are not easy to become listless.

Secret three: sauce. The sauce mixed with water, is made from vintage hemp juice, sesame oil, chicken essence, and most people cannot figure out what they are eating. Another way to do is to pour the leftover into a large barrel, and use a colander, to filter out the soup, throw away leftovers. Then above the filtered soup will be floating a layer of red chili oil. With such bright colors of chili oil, the need for money to buy pepper is left out.

In order to solve this problem, we must take multi-directional measures. For the governmental officials, they should strengthen the market supervision and fight against counterfeits and inferiors; for the peddlers, it’s their responsibility to do business honestly and guarantee the quality of the food; for the consumers, we can’t be too cautious when it comes to food issues. Always remember to keep an eye on what you eat, because that matters the most.
