Recently, Tianjin Inspection and Quarantine Bureau staff in the northern Xinjiang office found that a group of canned food from the United States contains beef ingredients, and according to the General Administration of Quality Supervision and Quarantine, U.S. food containing beef ingredients is not included in the "assessment and examination requirements of the country or region to meet the list of meat products exported to China" . The inspection and quarantine personnel decided that the imported food from the United States was unqualified and destroyed in accordance with the law.

 

 

 

This batch of American canned food called "Selected Italian Wedding Soup" totals 15 cases, weighing more than 90 kg and worth about 440 US dollars. The staff of the Northern Xinjiang Office of the Tianjin Inspection and Quarantine Bureau found beef ingredients in the ingredients of the original labels when checking the labels of the goods; the staff further carried out sensory tests on the products to determine the conclusion. According to the General Administration of Quality Supervision and Inspection's "list of meat products exported to China from countries or regions that meet the requirements of assessment and examination", only U.S. pork products are currently allowed to be imported into China.
