This is SHOCKING!
The Taiwanese ministry of law engaged the investigation bureau to mass sample the so called Vegetarian Food available in the market and conducted laboratory tests on them. They had confirmed that MORE THAN 50% of these products labeled and sold as Vegetarian Food had been tested and found MEAT INSIDE OF THEM !!!!!
WAF! ?
It had been a very admirable success of Taiwanese food industries to be able to produce these vegetarian food products that looks smells and tastes like real meat products, e.g. faked char siew faked fish faked chicken etc.
I tasted them. But not often. I am not vegetarian.
Now they had been confirmed that to SAVE COST under the bad economy and retain the taste to be closely likening the real stuffs, the factories had been widely cheating the consumers by adding real meat inside. That had included pork and beef as discovered by the laboratory tests made.
For religious and health related people who opted for vegetarian, this is a very serious impact. Some people might not go to heavens. :-0 some people would had suffered problems in their health.
This is very serious deception and commercial cheating, misleading consumers and violating the consumers rights.
For those insisting in vegetarian food, they had been cheated for heavens knows how long. They had been eating meat unknowingly. They had been violating their religious faith unknowingly. For those that insisted vegetarian diet for health, their goals of health had been defeated for long time, because this foul practice had been going on for some time before being confirmed by authorities and exposed to media.
I don't know what actions are going to be taken against the food factories yet. :-Z
