1 in every 10 dishes in China re-uses cooking oil dug from underground drain

[peterlth]

This is the talk in China now. For many years, used oiled flushed down into drains are dug out, filtered, heated and recycled for use in resturants. Each year, 200 to 300 million tonnes of such drain-recycled cooking are used in resturants. Statistically, China uses about 2500 million tonnes of cooking oil each year.

Therefore, if you are in China, 1 out of 10 dishes you had probably used cooking oil dug up from the drain.

SEOUL—China’s tainted milk products have spread to Korea. On September 24, the Korean Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) said that it had found melamine in two domestically-distributed snack foods imported from China.

According to a report by South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency on September 25, Misarang Custard, a snack made by Jianianhua International Company in China’s Tianjin, on an OEM deal with South Korea’s Haitai Confectionery and Foods Company, tested positive for 137 parts per million of melamine. Milk Rusk, another snack made in Hong Kong, tested positive for 7 parts per million of melamine.

The detection of more than 100 parts per million of melamine means that consumers can ingest large quantities of melamine from dairy-based processed foods, in addition to from milk or powdered milk. Initially, China’s powdered milk tested positive at several dozen parts per million and up to several hundred parts per million of melamine.

According to the report, Korean consumers are expected to lose confidence in Chinese food products or processed foods using ingredients imported from China.

However, Haitai Confectionery and Foods Company said they were puzzled by the test results, because their product that tested positive by the KFDA was made with raw materials provided by a Chinese dairy company which is not among the 22 dairy companies producing tainted baby formula as announced by Chinese authorities.

The test results indicated that melamine could exist in products from other dairy companies that are not on the 22 dairy companies list.

The KFDA announced that it will conduct tests on 4,600 tons of 615 kinds of snacks and chocolates containing milk ingredients imported from China.

Nothing new lah.
If sg can drink recycled water from toilet and lokang,
what's the big deal of china consuming recycled oil from their lokang?
Somemore the oil also filtered and processed like our newater.
They need just one more step that is to leegalise it.
sg can justify the need to consume recycled water cos' water is scare here
and to buy from other countries very super expensive.
So their govt also can justify too.
Some more they got how many billion bilion people compared to sg
only 3-5 million.
And then ahem... we got how many multi million ministars?
