kinda sad that Taiwan will be embroiled in this kind of poison food practice. I used to think that they are more health conscious and strong believers in organic/natural food and it's really shocking to see such things happening :roll: Hope the cuplrits will be severely punished :mad:

Wonder if it's still safe to travel to that country, especially since many kids will be there for their school immersion program this June.

Parents can chk with teachers about food safety?????

i think the sch will be more kancheong than the parents or children bah. they wldnt want anything to happen along the way, else they will not be able to shoulder any responsibility.

taiwan media reported that drinks sold at Shihlin night market may be affected also and these include shaved ice products, fruit drinks, preserved snacks, ahboling balls etc so probably advise your kids to avoid buying or better still bring own mineral water along Tour guides will also remind the tourists not to buy.

i wonder those people who use the chemical, do they know it cant be added in? if they dunoe and those left over (after a day's sales) they and their family consume it for almost everyday, then it's scary...

From the news report, the chemical was used because it's cheaper than using the correct ingredient. :mad:

so probably they know the chemical is toxic but come to profit margins and better earnings, they could have put the fear aside

From the news, the shilin night market vendor told the reporters that the product (think it's the concentrated juice) is not cheap.
