Fresh strawberry color, the greenery abundant kelp, a big color yellow bananas, colorful juice … These people are much interested in food has no lack of pigment's achievements. China Agricultural University School of food results of a latest survey showed that the current use of the food pigment 10 years ago several times, but remain relevant national standards a decade ago

This reporter went to the Beijing Chaoyang District Huangzhuang near a supermarket, food counters, to see the List of ingredients of candy found, in addition to sugar and milk chocolate, almost all the jelly, candy and other sweet foods contain small pigment, and even a candy should contain seven different pigment . Cakes situation is generally the case, strawberry flavor snacks containing carmine and Amaranth, melon flavor is tartrazine, sunset yellow and bright blue, with the blueberry flavor is bright blue and carmine.

Our reporter went to the nearby farm goods market, operating a bombing "Sesame ears" something extra business humming, Huangchengcheng "Sesame ears" attracted many people to buy. Reporters asked why dough colors so bright, shops readily told reporters: "This is due to the use of a sunset yellow, tartrazine reasons." When asked about food so much pigment will endanger health, shopkeeper replied: "No, I am very good business here, sell supermarket things also do so. "

Not long ago, the Trade and Industry Bureau in Hangzhou market inspection found that some food pigment content serious occupation of the person confessed that these standard foods in the excessive use of the additive, color and texture have become particularly attractive, such foods more popular. It is understood that now more and more use of the industrial food additives: bean sprouts add bleaching powder; Cate Riga, the sodium pyrosulfite, this will produce carcinogenic substances sulfur dioxide chemicals; The smooth appearance of shark fins has been identified in the role of the carcinogenic formaldehyde; "Red Egg" is due in chicken added to feed, commonly known as "Pink" synthetic pigment.

Some say that the food has now entered the "era of additives", jelly, ice cream, beverages, because pigments and spices added to the modernization of production, beverages, dairy products, meat products, and other fields do not have almost no food additives. But such alarming consumers are unaware of the fact that I do not know, but those who favor a more beautiful appearance, the brightly-colored foods. In an interview with the supermarket, the reporter inquired about the purchase of eggs is a volume customer knows that the volume of eggs may add lemon yellow pigment, loss She replied: "it will not, eggs volume is not such Huangchengcheng?" Reporters noticed that the more who Positions of the food kids love, and parents are also happy to meet the children's request, the sales have been very good.

Information, known as the "food cosmetics" pigment has been increasingly widespread use in the food area, these pigments added to the food, natural pigment only less than 20%, while the remaining are synthetic pigment. The pigment synthesis in the process of refining often mixed with aniline, arsenic and other chemicals that these substances have a different toxicity.

The health of synthetic colorings there are some potential safety problems, producers and operators are well aware, but why should generally added in food?

According to Mr. Wang & operators that do have four important lo: weight gain, moisturizing, by aroma, the outfit, which will use additives to achieve. Looking to the color of the meat, you can use natural caramel can also use the cheaper Carmine and sunset yellow pigment synthesis of the two. 200 grams of caramel loaded to 65 yuan, 500 grams of equipment and 500 grams of Carmine loaded the sunset yellow two combined have only 55 yuan. Although Carmine and sunset yellow is not in accordance with the regulations for lo processing, but because these pigments results were better, more favored Wang Carmine and sunset red.

Popular synthetic pigment is not only Mr. Wang, from individual hawkers to production and processing enterprises, the case. In fact, the use of pigment is very strictly limited, the pigment can be added now, often with personal hobbies. Add pigment-standard, super-wide phenomenon not uncommon, such as repeatedly mentioned nitrite as a color-protecting agent is widely used in animal and marinated meat products, and this amounts to poison food. National Food Supervision and Inspection Center for Scholars, deputy director noted that the use of nitrite standard on human easily cause damage. Nitrite in the human body can be transformed into nitrosamines, nitrosamines have a strong carcinogen. Many food manufacturers operating units and individual food producers in order to beautify the appearance, or even cover up expired, spoiled food, despite the health of consumers, ignoring the regulations abuse pigment.

According to experts, not only natural pigment is expensive, but with enough bright colors out. By contrast, the use of synthetic colorings food colorful, and can greatly reduce the cost of production, producers of popular favor. Even if a particular pigment content in food is qualified, but in the life of consumers eating a lot of the same pigment containing a variety of foods, there are still likely to lead to the total intake of pigment occupation of harm to health. Many foods contain natural pigment, so no need to add synthetic pigment.

For a long time, pigment additive has been excessive, the scope of the use of super, and the relevant standards in a decade ago but remain far failed to catch up with market development needs. As standards lag, the pigment manufacturers in the perpetuation of state regulatory control. Data show that China currently allows the use of synthetic colorings are nine species, 40 species of natural pigment, but not each have relevant national standards. This expert said: "On the one hand, allows the use, but is not limited to add control standards, this is an obvious loophole."

Experts explained that the current domestic food additive regulations and standards management system exposed on three major issues. First, "the use of food additives health standards" has not changed nearly 10 kept up with the food safety regulatory requirements, such as potassium bromate and other international has been generally prohibited additives varieties in China being included allowing the use of the directory; Secondly, China has approved the use of 1500 a variety of additives, only 250 are national standards, there are many food additives lack of MRL standards and related testing methods; In addition, apart from the government regulatory disadvantage, manufacturers of non-compliance with state regulations is a very important reason, particularly many food processing enterprises in order to pander to eliminate fees are psychological, even on the label marked "the non-food additives" or "no preservatives" and so forth.

Lack of standards in China led directly to the right additives regulatory loopholes and punishment adverse manufacturers also contributed to recidivists would not change the mentality. The current management of the implementation of China's food additive model is fine, but fines, confiscation of the regulation after it is in a soft state, not fundamentally eradicate "colored" food spread. The past two years, food safety issues are attracting increasing attention, in this year's two sessions on the country against colored foods, many deputies have called for a new "food security" introduced. It was generally agreed that the food market should be determined in order, starting from the source, to take precautionary measures and not to the escrow impunity.
