Landfills can be turned into "gold mines" as long as they are black-hearted enough. Previously, frozen meat smuggled from Vietnam was often seized, and after each seizure, the authorities buried the frozen meat at the landfills in Sanjia Village. These frozen meat, which are regularly "delivered to the door", have become treasures in the eyes of the villagers.

After the incident came to light, the authorities set up an ad hoc working group to investigate, and so far seven suspects have been arrested on suspicion of producing and selling food that does not meet safety standards. The Administration will also consider purchasing a shredder to crush the seized items before landfills, so as to prevent the public from "stealing" again.

Now a new smuggling pattern has emerged. Shenzhen Wenjindu Customs seized 25 tons of smuggled frozen chicken feet in an incoming truck at the end of 2018. This is the 11th frozen goods smuggling case seized by the customs in 2018. According to data from the General Administration of Customs, in the first five months of 2018 alone, the Customs filed and investigated 104 cases of smuggling of frozen goods, with a total of 23000 tons of smuggled frozen goods.

Frozen meat illegally smuggled may also be meat that is not up to standard and has been kept out of date for many years, and added chemicals to keep it fresh and preservative. If it is diseased meat from bird flu or mad cow disease epidemic areas, it may even lead to an epidemic.

Where does the smuggling of frozen meat go? The reporter's investigation found that after smuggling frozen meat into the country, it entered the market through online and offline linkage and stepped onto the consumer dining table.

Joining several QQ groups related to frozen meat, it is found that most merchants sell two types of imported frozen meat: one is with complete import documents and high prices, and the other is ultra-low prices for beef, mutton, chicken feet and other imported frozen meat. Most of these are smuggled products without relevant import documents, and their prices are about 20% cheaper than those of regular imports.

In the daily operation, we should not buy, do not need "unlicensed" and "floating goods", so as to create a good food consumption environment. And we should also pay more attention to food safety and not buy food casually.
