Homemakers United Foundation criticizes hasty import of ractopamine pork, fears people may need to bring their own rapid test strips, food safety hard to guarantee

The import of ractopamine pork threatens the food safety of people in Taiwan, China, but the government has used various administrative tactics to refuse citizen participation. The Homemakers United Foundation Environmental Protection Foundation invited civil society groups to jointly sign a petition rejecting ractopamine pork, and held a press conference today, displaying rapid test reagents for detecting ractopamine on site and angrily stating, "If in the future we all have to use test reagents before eating pork, that kind of life would be truly awful."

The Homemakers United Foundation and the signing groups reiterated their opposition to the import of ractopamine pork, while also demanding zero detection of ractopamine in offal, accelerated food and agriculture education, the establishment of a local pig farming brand, and protection of food safety for young children. The alliance also used the phrase "broken pot" to describe this ractopamine pork import policy, calling on the government to repair the pot and safeguard food safety first, otherwise no matter how much subsidy is invested, it will all be in vain
