As we all know, "cadmium rice" is very harmful to human body, but it only needs to be accumulated in the body to a certain extent. For the public, the most urgent thing to know now is undoubtedly which brands of rice have excessive cadmium, thus reducing the risk of eating "cadmium rice". However, the US Food and Drug Administration in Guangzhou said that it was "inconvenient to announce". I can't help asking: why not publish it? Why not publish it? What's the point of such sampling if only the data is published and the brand is not published? What is the position of the "inconvenient to publish" government department on the Regulations on the Openness of Government Information and the public's right to know?
Food is the most important thing for the people, and cleanliness is the first thing to eat. Rice is the most important daily staple food, and the fundamental demand of the public for safe food must not be perfunctory with "inconvenient announcement". It is really puzzling why local government departments should use their credibility to hide the problem food producers. If the list is not published, there will naturally be no removal or recall. In other words, ordinary people can only rely on their own luck if they want to avoid eating cadmium rice. 1 A number of people from the state grain depots in Hunan Province complained that in 2009, Shenzhen Grain Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Shenzhen Grain Group") bought tens of thousands of tons of edible rice in Hunan, which was unqualified and the heavy metal content exceeded the standard. The quality inspection department's opinion is that it can't be stored and can only be used for industrial purposes. However, with the rising market price of rice, Shenzhen Grain Group sold this batch of problem rice to the outside world, which seriously damaged the health of consumers.
Many rice noodle factories in Daojiao confirmed that they purchased hundreds of tons of rice and processed rice noodles from Shen Liang Group that year.
Nanfang Daily reporter randomly selected several batches of Hunan rice in Guangzhou market, and the results showed that cadmium exceeded the standard and was unqualified.
4. The test results of rice samples and rice flour samples obtained from Jinji show that the cadmium content of "Rongcheng" brand rice produced by Xiangtan Zhicang is 0.3mg/kg, which exceeds the standard by 50%; The cadmium content of kinski rice flour is 0.2mg/kg, which is twice higher than the standard.
A motion of Hunan Provincial Political Consultative Conference shows that the number of times that agricultural products exported (exported) by Hunan Province are rejected due to excessive toxic and harmful substances is gradually increasing.
Cadmium pollution in rice is mainly related to the pollution in crop planting areas. Long-term consumption of rice with excessive cadmium will do harm to human health.
Eat more omnivores to avoid cadmium poisoning.
Professor from the Institute of Agricultural Resources and Ecological Environment of Nanjing Agricultural University said that hybrid rice, especially super rice, is at risk of cadmium exceeding the standard. However, due to the randomness of buying rice in the market and the diversity of food structure, urban residents generally do not have cadmium poisoning problems. "The health risks of super rice we are talking about are mainly aimed at farmers who consume locally, that is, farmers who eat their own rice all the year round." Since hybrid rice, especially super rice, has this risk, how should most citizens avoid absorbing too much cadmium through the food chain when eating rice processed from this rice?
It is suggested that in order to reduce the harm of some elements in food to human body, it is particularly important to actively and widely ingest various foods, and people should eat more miscellaneous foods. "In the case that the tendency of high cadmium content in rice cannot be eliminated immediately, such as eating more high-zinc foods such as seafood, bean products and melon seeds, the disease can be reduced by' antagonizing' foods with excessive cadmium content. At the same time, southerners should eat more northern dishes. " 1. Long-grain fragrant rice
In rice, there are many so-called "long-grain fragrant rice", but they are not really long-grain fragrant.
Identification method: firstly, from the grain type, the length of rice grain is above 5.5mm and the aspect ratio is above 2: 1, which can be called long grain; Moreover, long-grain fragrant rice should be fragrant rice, which has the natural fragrance of rice, and many odorless rice are also sold as long-grain fragrant rice.
2. Fake scented rice
Some illegal processors will add essence when polishing rice, so that the originally tasteless rice smells like fragrant rice, so as to make huge profits.
Identification method: add polished rice and soak in boiling water 1~2 minutes. The soaked rice has no fragrance, but the real fragrant rice still has fragrance after soaking.
Add mineral oil to rice.
Part of old rice or inferior rice is milled again to remove the deteriorated part of the rice surface. After polishing, rice becomes much brighter, and then it is mixed with normal rice and sold. Some normal rice is even polished with mineral oil, which makes the rice brighter and deceives consumers.
Identification method: inferior polished rice and rice with mineral oil have bright colors, dark beige and greasy taste.
4. Identify dyed rice:
Colored rice (such as black rice and purple rice). ) rich in nutrition, but black-hearted rice will add pigment to dye rice to deceive consumers.
Identification method: the colored rice heart is white, but the dyed rice heart will also have color infiltration; Normal colored rice will fade slightly when washed, but it may be dyed rice if the color fades seriously. New rice has some whiskers. Connected with particles, new rice must be harvested vigorously to prove the firmness of new rice. After air drying or storage for one year, old rice's whiskers have completely dried and fallen off. The second point is that the new rice is lighter and cleaner, while the old rice is darker and yellowish, with a thin layer of green and a little musty.
Old grain that is not well stored is not good rice. Distinguishing the old from the new is only one aspect. They also measured the water content and rice yield of rice with instruments. In order to better adapt to raw materials. Cai Qiang simply went to the countryside and set up several rice bases specially, so that the new rice of that year could be delivered directly to him.
The circulation of grain is mostly from base harvesting to grain depot to processing to grain merchants, wholesalers and sellers, and finally to consumers. After coming out of the processing plant, all the rice circulating in the market is lifeless rice. Cai Qiang, a careful and understanding China citizen, buys directly from the base and processes directly in the rice mill in the city, giving people live rice all the time, so that people can really eat nutritious germ rice.
