    On September 29, 2022, the State Administration for Market Regulation issued a notice
    on the failure of 12 batches of food sampling inspection.

    Among them, the white sugar (bulk weighing, 2022/3/6) sold by Taobao Fude Jinxiu Seasoning Merchants (operator is Jinquan Grocery Store in Changting County, Longyan, Fujian Province) on Taobao (online store) and nominally produced by Botian Sugar Industry (Zhangbei) Co.
    , Ltd.
    of Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province, of which the reduced sugar test value does not meet the national standards for food safety, the inspection result is 3.
    23g/100g, and the standard value is 1.
    5-2.
    5g/100g
    .

    The State Administration of Market Supervision interpreted that reducing sugar refers to sugars with reducing properties, including glucose, fructose, galactose, lactose and maltose
    .
    Reducing sugar is one of the quality indicators of sugar, and the substandard reduction sugar will affect product quality and shorten its shelf life
    .
    "Cotton White Sugar" (GB/T 1445-2018) stipulates that the limit of reducing sugar of premium cotton white sugar is 1.
    5-2.
    5g/100g
    .
    The reason why the reduced sugar in the excellent cotton white sugar does not meet the standards may be that the production process of the production enterprise is not properly controlled, or it may be related to the poor transportation and storage conditions of
    sugar.

    Third-party data show that Botian Sugar (Zhangbei) Co.
    , Ltd.
    in Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province, is 100% controlled
