There are 3 methods of making soy sauce; claiming traditional handmade ancient methods requires honest solid-state brewing General News Jan 1, 1970By Emily Carter 0 views Share4.1K +129 Tweet5 EmailShares 4.2K Dou You Bo claimed traditional brewing methods, but because of insufficient production capacity, it bought raw soy sauce from Kimlan, losing consumers' trust. (Image captured from Dou You Bo's official website) Food and Drug Administration: By law, it only needs to comply with hygiene standards. Chen Juncheng: But does it comply with advertising regulations? Hsu Chaokai, a specialist committee member of the FDA's Food Division, said that the Act Governing Food Safety and Sanitation does not prohibit food businesses from doing contract manufacturing for each other, and in practice contract manufacturing is very common; currently there is no special requirement for businesses to label the contract manufacturer. Businesses only need to "comply with hygiene and relevant legal regulations" and complete the "non-registration prohibited" and "non-traceability prohibited" registrations, and upon investigation Dou You Bo has in fact complied with the law. As for whether there are soy sauce sellers that "have no factory and are only responsible for marketing," causing the businesses to not understand the production process at all and creating a hidden food safety crisis? Hsu Chaokai said that under the Act Governing Food Safety and Sanitation, "whoever's name is on the product, that business is responsible," and businesses should not sell their products without understanding them. However, Chen Juncheng stressed that although Dou You Bo meets regulations in terms of hygiene standards, in terms of "advertising" and "consumer rights" regulations, Dou You Bo emphasized "traditional handmade (solid-state fermentation)," yet in reality mixed in soy sauce products made by other fermentation methods, and he believes there are still exaggerated, false, and non-compliant aspects.
