    Original title: Mooncake innovation, safety is more important than taste
    (Training Hongyang) seven nights have passed, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the annual "Mooncake War" officially opened. All parties involved in the war are showing great courage, in innovation, packaging, publicity to find a breakthrough. Especially in innovation, this year's mooncake market is not the most eye-catching is not the sky-high price of mooncakes, but a variety of innovative products. These moon cakes because the filling is strange enough, so that consumers sigh "only we can not think of taste, no business can not make moon cakes."
    , whether adhere to the classic, care, or bold innovation, advancing with the times, to ensure the safety of moon cakes is the first priority. The development of every mooncake flavor must be safe enough to cross the threshold of safety before enterprises can talk about innovation. And food safety, is precisely the pain point of the society today.
    As a festival food, the production, sale and consumption of moon cakes present different characteristics from other foods: strong seasonality, short sales time, many production enterprises, sales channels scattered, many of which are hidden food safety risks. Mooncakes are only born for the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival once disappeared, "mooncake war" is about a month time. In order to supply sufficient, enterprises early began the production of moon cakes, the longer the production time, the greater the risk of moon cakes decay, in order to prevent the quality, individual enterprises will violate the use of preservatives, "cake strong" "antique cake" is this kind of product.
    "village ignition, household smoke" is the production status of traditional moon cakes, from large restaurants, large hotels to western cake shops, small workshops, after obtaining permission can produce moon cakes. Production enterprises "many, small, scattered, disorderly", objectively improve the difficulty of food safety supervision. Sales are generally the same, major shopping malls, major supermarkets, all kinds of pie shops and even hotel lobby are full of moon cakes, and now there are more online sales, friends circle "private room mooncakes", sales channels more, purchase is convenient, food safety risks have increased.
    production is the first link to determine the quality of moon cakes, producers are the first responsible for food safety. Enterprises in accordance with food safety laws, regulations and standards to engage in production activities, for the safety of moon cakes is particularly important. For this special food, it should be emphasized that the production enterprises should strictly implement the "food additives use standards", can not illegally add non-edible substances, drugs and "can be used for health food items list" items, over-range and over-limit use of food additives. For example, to make mooncakes more attractive color, more selling phase, the use of synthetic pigments, is a violation.
    if there is a problem with the safety of mooncakes, the circulation chain will also be liable for the same - the newly revised Food Safety Law specifically provides for civil liability for participants in all aspects of circulation. Therefore, whether it is shopping malls, restaurants, or western cake shops, mooncake sellers have to tighten the safety of this string. Insist on not selling moon cakes without factory name, no factory site, no shelf life and unknown source, do not operate moon cakes beyond the shelf life by means of naked, bulk and tampering with the shelf life, and do not exaggerate the mooncakes, false propaganda, misleading consumers.
    in addition to production enterprises, circulation links, food safety supervision is also an important pass. Food safety supervision, focus on the front and in the event, do not wait until "fire" before "fire fighting". Pre-supervision, focus on the production of enterprises - check whether the mooncake producers are fully licensed, each kind of mooncake production is implemented the relevant standards, whether to mark the factory name, production date, shelf life and other conventional items, whether there is a second charge, doping and other cases; Heavy in the mooncake sales link - all kinds of point-of-sale mooncakes random sampling, found that does not meet food safety standards, illegal addition of non-edible substances and drugs mooncakes to be recalled and disposed of in accordance with the law, timely, and severely investigate the sale of "three no" mooncakes, filling, expired, poor quality mooncakes and other illegal acts.
    Modern society, no subject can deal with the widely distributed food safety risks alone, we must mobilize the enthusiasm of all kinds of social subjects to co-rule, weave a network of enterprise self-discipline, government supervision, social coordination, public participation security, moon cake safety is no exception. The media are also an integral part of social co-operation, and the media have a responsibility and the ability to participate in maintaining public food safety.
