Poisonous gyoza (dumplings)...

It didn't bother me watching this news running for about 3-4 weeks na yata. Coz we do not buy this brand of gyouza in the supermarket 'coz Makki made some personally and put it in the fridge. But let's be informed so as not to be a victim.

The composition of the pesticide found in the Chinese dumplings that recently sickened 10 people indicates it was produced outside of Japan. Police in Chiba and Hyogo prefectures, where the food poisonings occured have found considerable impurities in the pesticide called, metamidophos, after analyzing its chemical composition using gas chromatograph mass spectrometry, the sources said. Using it as an agricultural chemical is banned in Japan.

The manufacturers must take responsibility for the quality of their own products. Japanese are meticulously strict on food expirations so as the contents of their products. But they have had overlooked this imports from China's Tianyang Food Factory. A lesson learned not once twice or thrice. Remember the Nice Foods scam also? They unscrupulously changed the expired open dating of the said products. I love pa naman those dried fruits and champoy. My gosh how can they be so careless?!
