How to treat the crash chicken incident?

In response to recent media reports that Shanxi Suhai Group raised "instant chicken" for 45 days and provided it to well-known fast food restaurants such as KFC and McDonald's, on the 24th, KFC (China) announced in Weibo that only 1% of its chicken purchases came from Shanxi Suhai Group. (165438+ Oriental Morning Post125 October) Recently, some media reported that Shanxi Suhai Group raised "instant chicken" for 45 days and provided it to KFC, McDonald's and other well-known fast food restaurants. On 24th, KFC (China) announced in Weibo that night that only 1% of its chicken purchases came from Shanxi Suhai Group. (1October 25th 165438+ Oriental Morning Post)

This news is attractive again because two famous foreign fast food brands are suspected of using "instant chicken" as raw materials. Under the background that the related events have not been completely clarified, each of us should pay attention to the safety of "instant chicken". What is particularly surprising is that in February this year, the news of industrialized poultry breeding of Suhai Group was reported in newspapers. It is reported that as many as 1 1 drugs were fed to broilers in only one feeding stage. Only by continuously feeding medicine can the disease resistance of chickens be improved. As long as chickens don't get sick within 45 days, they can be taken away and slaughtered smoothly and flow into the market for human consumption.

In fact, the industrialization of poultry farming is not news in domestic aquaculture, and this large-scale breeding method of chickens, ducks and pigs relying on "high technology" is gradually replacing the traditional practice of free-range animals.

Last June, I answered the question, "Why do broilers grow so fast? Did you use growth hormone during feeding? " China Animal Husbandry Association has issued an official statement, saying that the official tests in Beijing, Shanghai and other places showed that no hormones were detected in chicken. Li Heceng, a researcher at China CDC, said that she "believes" that chicken does not contain excessive hormones.

Take the 45-day "instant chicken" bred by Shanxi Suhai Group as an example, and quote the explanation of workers, "These feeds are all mixed with drugs and additives. I don't know what they are, but they are definitely harmful to people. The flies around are poisonous, and young people are afraid to work here. " In fact, similar views are common among "insiders". Even now, more and more small family farmers in rural areas are using similar special "feed" for feeding, and they rarely or even don't eat this "instant chicken" themselves.

It is not normal for workers in large-scale aquaculture enterprises or individual farmers to be unclear about the safety of chickens and pigs. While the power of science and technology is increasingly showing its great role, food safety has been paid more and more attention, and people's right to know and health has become more and more prominent. For the problems reflected by the public and even farmers, it is necessary for authoritative departments and relevant functional departments to stand up and solve doubts, or investigate and deal with meat products and dairy products that may have potential safety hazards in time. Therefore, there should be a more authoritative voice about whether the "ready-to-eat chicken" exposed in the above news and the "ready-to-eat pig" raised by it are safe.
