Recently, Ö ko-Test, a famous third-party consumer goods testing agency in Germany, conducted a food safety assessment on a number of hot-selling chili sauce in China.
The results of the evaluation were astonishing and popular with friends at home and abroad, and the popular chili sauce of old Gan Ma was revealed to contain carcinogen PAHs, and high mineral oil content.
Was rated as the lowest level of health D-(warning) level!


This news caused countless Chinese Australians to collapse, without the old mother, how do we eat well ah!



Ö ko-Test `s professional test results
No doubt give everyone a bolt from the blue!
According to the (EFSA) standards of the European Food Safety Agency
Of all the old dry mom products on the market at present
The polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAHs). Were all detected.
Some of the substances in PAHs can cause cancer,
One of the most well-known is benzo [a] pyrene.
Yeah, that`s the carcinogen that`s always in the barbecue!


Ö ko-Test has sent a letter to German supermarkets
Hoping to stop selling this unhealthy food

Hear the news
My first reaction was-
Old mother carcinogenic?
Are you XX kidding?!

Who`s the fucking mom?
Is the goddess of countless Chinese Australians!
It`s a little princess who sees people love!
When I first arrived in Australia, I didn`t like to eat steak with western food.
At this time, as long as there`s a bottle of dry mom,
You have mastered the essence of Chinese cuisine.
Stir up vegetables, mix noodles, eat dry food, it is all-powerful!
She`s been alone all day and night
It comforted our Chinese stomach.

And a bottle of dry mom,
It also overcame the hearts and stomachs of a lot of foreigners!
Not only is she popular on Amazon, the world`s largest online shopping site,
And the price is as high as 70 yuan a bottle.
Many American girls said that after eating,
"I only love Lao Gan Ma in this life."

What`s more,
This mysterious, blood-inflating,
The old Oriental man-in-law, who couldn`t stop,
Even on the luxury discount website Gilt!
Chinese national chili sauce has become a luxury for foreigners.
You feel it!)

A goddess so popular all over the world
Ö ko-Test, who dare to insult her like this?!
In fact, Ö ko-Test is really a big guy.
Ö KO-TEST is the oldest independent ecological testing agency in Germany.
Since its inception in 1985,
By testing products that are closely related to the consumer,
More than one hundred and fifty thousand products were tested,
Covering food, skin care, health products,
Baby supplies, furniture, finance and many other areas.
In the meantime, manufacturers have filed more than 600 lawsuits against it.
But it only lost once.

At the same time, they don`t accept products sent by manufacturers for inspection,
This can ensure that the inspection products are not under the control of the manufacturer.
It`s such a testing agency.
Give Lao Gan Ma`s four products, all of which are rated D-(warning level).


Let`s take a look at the test report.







(if you can`t see the picture clearly, you can click on the picture to see the larger picture.)
In the analysis of the test,
There are a variety of ingredients in the Lao Gan Ma product,
It has a significant impact on human health.
They`re.
Carcinogen 001 mineral oil-Mineral Oil

In this evaluation, mineral oil composition-mineral oil saturated hydrocarbon (MOSH). Was detected in all products. The German Federal Institute for risk Assessment (BfR) recommends that the amount of MOSH migration from packaging to food should be controlled within 4 mg / kg;
The mineral oil content of these several types of chili peppers far exceeds these requirements;
In the recently published list of carcinogenic chemicals, mineral oil is listed on the list, it is not easily metabolized by the human body, will accumulate in the human body detoxification organs;
Skin care products made from mineral oil are known to cause pneumonia in infants and elderly people. Therefore, pregnant women are strongly advised to stop using any cosmetics and household products based on mineral oil, as small amounts of inhalation or intake can also be dangerous.
Carcinogen 002 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons-PAHs

German laboratories have detected polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in all products. According to EU regulations, the limit of PAHs content is 2 μ g / kg.
Laoganma products due to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons content significantly reduced by 4 grades.
Some of the polycyclic aromatic compounds are strong carcinogens, such as benzo pyrene;
Harmful 003 plasticizer-DBP/DIBP

Plasticizer (DBP/DIBP) is a plastic polymer that increases the plasticity of plastics. According to EU Directive 2007 / 19 EC, the limit for specific migration amounts in food is 0.3 mg / kg (SML).
In this evaluation, the plasticizer content of several products of Lao Gan Ma is higher than the European Union standard value, and has been reduced by 2 grades.
Animal experiments show that long-term large intake of DBP and DIBP, can cause endocrine disruptions, reproductive and developmental disorders, and induce liver cancer in animals.
After reading the test results,
Think about all these years in Australia,
Lao Gan-ma spent every sunrise and dusk with her,
Those true feelings, each other`s foam, warm each other time.
Eating all over the standard of mineral oil and carcinogens.
My heart is so tired, I feel played by the goddess!

However.
That`s not the worst news yet.
Because of the Goddess.
Not the only chili sauce checked!
There are also several other chili sauce
Was tested for carcinogens,
All ratings are D -!
Which brands do you want to see for yourself?
There are just a few bottles in my kitchen anyway.







After this assessment,
Tencent, NetEase, Sina,
All three major domestic portals follow-up reports:

(NetEase)

(Tencent)
The research report and the media exposure
There is no doubt that it has brought a huge crisis of trust to Lao Gan Ma`s company,
But at present, Lao Gan Ma has not issued an official statement.
But the other chili sauce companies on the list
Made the following response
"100% of our products meet China`s national standards,
Evaluation of non-official institutions in China
We will not comment. "

(text independent)
The German institutions have been tested.
There have been reports in the domestic media,
And there`s a response from the chili sauce company,
But it`s up to the reader to believe it or not.
After all, the body is own.
Delicious food.
Nothing is more important than good health.
Finally, my friends in Australia
If there is no red, greasy, spicy old dry mothe
How do we eat in the future!
Who will solve this problem?!
