China is fighting to get a better food reputation. The government recently banned 17 food additives including lye, boric acid, formaldehyde and sodium thiocyanate. Lye is sometimes added to water for soaking seafood to make it appear fresher and plumper. Formaldehyde was also used for seafood. And boric acid—which is often used as an insecticide and flame retardant—gets added to noodles and dumplings to make them easier to work with. China has been plagued with hazardous food issues in the past year. That includes a scandal involving milk contaminated with the industrial chemical melamine--a complicated issue even in our own country as we discussed in a recent article. The government appears to be finally reacting. Currently, the order to stop using these additives allows for food producers a little time to change direction. But soon, authorities say, they will conduct raids on producers and manufacturers who are deemed high risk users of these chemicals. The ministry says this is only the beginning, and that more additives could be added to the list in time.

It's true what our moms said...we are what we eat. In fact, it's truer than they thought. What I eat doesn't just affect me anymore, it affects all of us.
Unfortunately, the story of food can sometimes be complicated. But envirovores help each other out...which is why this blog will be bringing you news, tips, and information about food and the environment every step of the way.
