Ractopamine-fed US pork to be opened up, dumplings and meatballs exempt from origin labeling, enforcement difficulties may reduce it to a slogan
President Tsai Ing-wen recently announced that, based on the overall national interest, imports of US ractopamine pork (hereafter referred to as "ractopamine pork") will be opened up starting New Year's Day next year, sparking food safety concerns. The Council of Agriculture and the Ministry of Health and Welfare stated that ractopamine-fed US pork is safe, but domestic pig farming is still not allowed to use ractopamine, and strict labeling will be implemented at the same time so consumers can make clear choices. However, pork has diverse and widespread uses. Beyond labeling fresh meat products, can catering, snack shops and many processed products all be clearly labeled? In the past, after ractopamine-fed US beef imports were allowed, mandatory labeling was also required, but without strict inspection to back it up, it may be difficult to safeguard consumers' food safety and right to know.
Council of Agriculture: Fresh meat products will be required to label origin
Pork is a staple of people's diets, and the channels of exposure can be roughly divided into three types: buying fresh meat products, catering and snack shops, and processed foods. Regarding the fresh category, Council of Agriculture Minister Chen Chi-chung stated that supermarkets will be required to print the place of origin to help consumers identify it. Pork sold in traditional markets has always been warm-body pork, and clear labeling of origin will also be required.
