Division by (research) food processing techniques No. 102-014 December 11, 2013 to construct a research food processing techniques assistant food safety health environment Zeng Chao Keywords: food safety I. Introduction Recent outbreaks of food safety issues in Taiwan continuously from plasticizing agents, toxic starch, Hunchong rice, bread , soy sauce, cooking oil to milk, food to be consumed daily life has a problem, food is not only the people at ease, but also to have a reputation as a gourmet paradise food processing techniques Taiwan shame, hit the international image of related industries. Therefore, the Government should withdraw at the end eradicate the problem of contaminated food, the food can not be an issue after the outbreak of the proposed policy was modified for specific foods. Based on this, the paper on this one special topics Research and Analysis, frequent occurrence of food safety to understand the cause of the problem and propose specific measures to construct peace of mind so that people eat a healthy environment. Two, the food is not at ease in the past, Taiwan has always been known for quality products, food processing techniques has a considerable reputation abroad, especially in Taiwan, mainland China and Japan, the price of food products are a high-end merchandise, food processing techniques and became the subject of human competition. However, the series of outbreaks of food safety problems, China's goodwill has been affected. To solve this problem, first need to understand the source is the problem, this paper analyzes the main reasons are as follows: First, the abuse of food additives according to "Food Sanitation Law" stipulates that the so-called food additive is defined as food coloring, flavoring, preservative, bleach, emulsification, increase the flavor, quality and stability, and promote fermentation, increase consistency, fortified to prevent oxidation or other necessary purposes, or substances added to food products in contact with. Food manufacturers in the food production process, in order to save costs and increase beauty or texture, reduce production time and to extend the shelf life, often add chemicals in foods, for example: preservatives, antioxidants, bulking agents, bleaching agents, coloring agents, sweetening agents, flavoring food processing techniques agents, food processing techniques fungicides, and emulsifiers. And many of these food additives are harmful, prone to many complications. As food additive effect is excellent, according to media reports in order to allow the food delicious and flexibility but also corrosion, might add some borax, knot agents; want to show red food color, then it is possible to add some foods Paul colorants, preservatives (nitrite), like we always eat dried vegetables food processing techniques (dried lily, cabbage dry, white fungus, bamboo fungus), dried fruits (dried persimmon, dried mango, dried pineapple) in order to maintain the bright color, will use sulfur dioxide (bleach) to be fumigated. In recent years, more and more food additives makes floating abuse, for merchants to set interest expense food processing techniques of consumers' health related issues abound. Second, food processing techniques the mark is not real for many Taiwanese manufacturers label merchandise is not clear, some are fuzzy words passing, some are deliberately left out food additives and other contents. Consumers' Foundation recently released food processing techniques a commercial snack food labeling survey last month bought 16 samples food processing techniques in the store supermarket goods, found that "what is seen and not eat anything", name and ingredients label name does not deserve serious cases, such as water, honey Pinky No peaches peach mint ingredients, Sheng Xiangzhen not litchi lychee coconut, and Laurel did not even shrimp shrimp raw materials. These food manufacturers have marked a clear, let alone as a small factory or market vendors sell food. Third, the punishment is difficult to deter repeated outbreaks of food safety issues, but also with the current laws and the government is not heavy penalties related to a lighter punishment. This year broke up fat people "fake natural" bread case, Taipei City Health Bureau punishment 180,000 yuan; landscape mixed with cheap rice in Vietnam and Thailand rice, origin labeling is not real cases only three cases fined 440,000 yuan; implicated in a number food processing techniques of industry food processing techniques use violation "poisonous starch 'case additives, local governments only for companies such as Jardine and co-odd food processing techniques punishment 6-12 million. Such penalties for illegal business simply irrelevant, no wonder some vendors a repeated offender, producing well-known landscape meters food processing techniques Shun-chuen, the company has two years to violations 18 times, three times a year recidivism. Edible oil spread until the whole country, the first reference to the Ministry of Health and Welfare, "Food Sanitation Law", "competent authority determines that the circumstances are serious," the terms of the heavy penalties on oil companies Datong 1.86 billion yuan, rich flavor Township 4.6 million. Fourth, the well-known manufacturers are also involved in more surprising is that even well-known domestic manufacturers (such as: unity, Wei Chuan, food processing techniques nam and Ting Hsin, etc.) are also involved in food safety issues related to food safety and occur almost food processing techniques every event, which involved both manufacturers. These large international companies lucrative, spends a huge amount of advertising and marketing costs, but do not want the money to inspect the foundry goods and related raw materials, also claimed food processing techniques victims themselves to gain sympathy, without the burden of related responsibilities. Senate recommends this article on food safety issues, try to provide a few suggestions: First, strengthen food processing techniques the management of food additives according to "Food Sanitation Law" Article food processing techniques 18 "of food additives name, size and scope, food processing techniques limits, by the Central the competent authority. standard in the preceding paragraph set, must be able to reach the minimum amount food processing techniques of the desired effect is limited, and according to Chinese dietary habits for risk assessment, and must comply with the specifications of. "Department of Health and draw" food additives range cum on specifications and limits "principle adopted" positive list ", which is only the additives listed in the table as a legitimate 可依 regulations and standards add use, such as non-listed food additives and food items on the table shall not be used. Even China has strict standards, food processing techniques but the manufacturer food processing techniques of the trend in profits, the excessive use of food additives, illegal use is still widespread, becoming one of the most serious problems of food security. Government should strengthen food processing techniques checks, and taking heavy punishment offenders, especially upstream manufacturers. In addition, you should also control the flow of food additives, food additives such as import quantities imported by tracking its use, tracing importers use or sales, manufacturers can be aware of whether the illegal use. Second, to improve the current penalties for food additives, adulteration and other raw materials food processing techniques or false labeling and food safety-related penalties for violations is too low, made illegal profits and vendors simply can not be compared, so that manufacturers have an incentive to whom adventure, making illegal food additives Case materials abound. Therefore in European countries should follow the example food processing techniques of the introduction of punitive damages system so willful violators pay a painful price, manufacturers will be able to significantly reduce the incentive to engage in this behavior. Moreover, in addition to "Food Sanitation food processing techniques Law", other laws have similar norms, the competent food processing techniques authority shall jointly control, such as "Fair Trade Act" that is false advertising provisions of Article 21: "shall not cause the goods or its advertising, or otherwise food processing techniques make public that the method, for the price of goods, quantity, quality, content, method of manufacture, date of manufacture, expiration date, using the methods, uses, origin, manufacturer, manufacturing, the processors, food processing techniques processing etc., false or untrue or misleading representations or characterization. utilities for containing untruthful or misleading representation of the product prior to entry errors shall not selling, transporting, exporting or importing. preceding two paragraphs in the career service mutatis mutandis. advertising agency knowingly or under circumstances food processing techniques that are still making or design errors introduced advertising, and advertising food processing techniques main negative collateral damage liability. advertising food processing techniques media industry knows or can know it's transmitted or published Ads have introduced errors in danger, food processing techniques still to be transmitted or published, food processing techniques also jointly and severally liable with the advertiser damages Section 41 ":" Fair Trade Commission for violation of the provisions of this Act the cause, may order it to stop, correct their behavior or to take the necessary corrective measures, and may at NT $ 50,000 twenty-five million yuan shall be imposed; fails to cease, food processing techniques to correct their behavior or take necessary corrective action who may continue to order it to stop, correct its conduct food processing techniques or take necessary corrective action, and then consecutive at NT $ 100,000 more than fifty million fines, to stop, to correct their behavior or take necessary corrective action so far. "heavier penalties of the Act, the fair will also be For cases involving specification explore whether a fair law. Third, the establishment of a professional field whistleblower reward system for food additives series, so unless food processing techniques engaged in related fields or professional researchers, food processing techniques the general public is difficult to know if there is a food additive. Along with this, if we can establish incentives such as tax authorities whistleblower food processing techniques system whereby informants get high as reward, will be able to encourage employees associated with the industry or professional researchers food processing techniques actively report and food additives to achieve eliminate illegal food additives effect. According to newspaper reports before the Legislature Legislative Bureau to encourage employees to report food processing techniques recommends the addition of a "preface" clause stipulates that a certain percentage of incentives to encourage employees to report wrongdoing industry, that is a very good legislation. Fourth, to promote the quality of competition is price competition rather than just the food industry and food distributors in order to increase sales, continued price competition, food processing techniques manufacturers in order to survive, and then using inferior products or raw materials. Therefore, in addition to supervision afterwards should food processing techniques also be guided chaos being vicious market food processing techniques competition, promote quality of goods, to encourage Taiwanese products in order to promote the quality of competition in the market rather than just price competition. Stanford, concluded that food is not just the government's responsibility to check, is the responsibility of the whole people. On the one hand through the transparent food labeling and increase the penalties and other control measures, so that the food industry can not easily hands and feet in the food; hand, consumers should also improve their food knowledge, refuse to buy are food safety concerns goods. food processing techniques National co-construction of relief food healthy food processing techniques environment, refurbishment "gourmet kingdom" signs.
