Tang Yuan boiled "paraffin"

The cooked dumplings actually appeared as "paraffin"! Ms. Lu was cooked in a soup dumpling bought from a supermarket a few days ago and found that a lot of wax appeared. The daughter vomited after eating it. Ms. Lu found a supermarket, but also with the theory of glutinous rice dumplings, has still not received satisfactory answers.

Ms. Lu who lives in Huangshi West Road in Baiyun District still keeps this pot of dumplings. The reporter saw that because of the long time it took, the dumplings in the pan had become very large, and a lot of white substances appeared on the dumplings. Ms. Lu said: “How could there be white matter? It was still hard to feel.” On December 20th, Ms. Lu bought a bag of “Don’t miss glutinous rice dumplings” at the supermarket.

When she finished the worship, she unexpectedly discovered that there were white things on the edge of the bowl of Sheng Dingyuan. After careful observation and touching, Ms. Lu, who has been a catering industry for many years, suspected that the white object was paraffin wax. "My daughter came home from school and didn't understand the situation. She vomited after she had finished eating dumplings," said Ms. Lu.

Subsequently, Ms. Lu first found the theory of supermarkets and supermarkets thought that it was a manufacturer problem. The manufacturers explained that these floats are not paraffin but palm oil. Since she is a catering chef, Ms. Lu could not accept this answer: "How could it be palm oil? I have been dining for myself for so long. Palm oil cannot be like this."

She told reporters that for Ms. Lu’s complaint, the company has stepped in to understand the situation. “On the day Ms. Lu said she wanted to lose money. We haven’t negotiated well. I explained to her that it is palm oil.” Miss Tang said that the company has taken some samples to test and found that it is palm oil.
