recently,A food and drug administration sampling announcement said,Multiple brands of spicy strip preservatives are unqualified。afterwards,The company argues that it is legal and compliant。

One、Sampling of unqualified preservatives and their safety:
(1) The unqualified items of the spicy strips in this sampling inspection are the use of preservatives - "potassium sorbate" and "sodium dehydroacetate"。
(2) The safety of "potassium sorbate" and "sodium dehydroacetate" is not in question。Don't hype this up in the media,说事儿!
Two、问题出在哪儿及解决方案
(一)分类是问题所在:
1、The classification of "authoritative" at the top of the official hierarchy:
(1) General Administration:
The "Notice on Strictly Strengthening the Supervision of Snack Foods such as Seasoned Noodle Products" issued by the former Food and Drug Administration in 2015 has been clarified,Spicy strips and seasoned noodle products,Classified according to instant rice and flour products。Potassium sorbate and sodium dehydroacetate are not allowed to be added to 2760 seasoned noodle products。要知道2760是基础性标准!!!
(2)卫计委的态度:
If it is said,The Food and Drug Administration is not authoritative enough,The National Health and Family Planning Commission (NHFPC) has made it clear in the draft of the "National Food Safety Standard for Seasoned Flour Products" standard,Spicy strips belong to seasoned noodle products。Although the standard has not yet been officially introduced,But,On the classification,The Health and Family Planning Commission is clear。Enterprises should not be confused with understanding。
2、Attitudes towards local standards:
(1) The local standard of a province classifies it as pastry。It was because spicy strips were just emerging as a new food,The country has not yet clarified its classification。
(2) In the case that the high-level authority of the state has made it clear,This standard should be abolished。
(2) The safety and solution of the preservatives involved:
1、security:Safety concerns for preservatives potassium sorbate and sodium dehydroacetate,Rest assured。When I was teaching the students, I explained in detail the rules and principles for setting the limit values in the standard,It is already clear to the classmates,I won't go into detail here。
2、The solution:
Since the safety of the two preservatives is no problem,Then the enterprise or location can declare in accordance with the food additive declaration procedures to expand the scope of application。namely,These preservatives are prepared with the necessary documents,Food additives allowed for use in instant rice and flour products,Just make a declaration,When approved to expand the scope of use,before use。
Three、How to deal with unqualified sampling:
(1) Since the enterprise has come up with the basis for its implementation standards (landmarks).,Although there is a suspicion of sophistry in the classification,I would like to make two points about how to deal with it:First, it is necessary to impose administrative penalties,Even if the business is litigating,It is certain that the company will lose the lawsuit;Second, it is appropriate to impose administrative penalties in this case,After all, the landmark has not been abolished。The third is the future,The enterprises involved must be scientific、Officially recognized classification organizes production。
(2) Local health and family planning commissions should be abolished in a timely manner、Revise relevant local standards。
(3) At the national level, it is necessary to strengthen supervision at the grassroots level、guide。meantime,Relevant standards should be introduced as soon as possible。
Four、A few final words:
I explained the food classification system in detail when I was teaching my students。Simply,Classification system for the standard system,Only applies to this standard,That's the first sentence。The second sentence is:,When the classification is unclear,It is necessary to determine the classification of food according to the characteristics of processing technology and product attributes。The last word is:,食品工艺对当今的食品执法人是一堂必须补上的课——不懂工艺谈执法都是耍流氓!
