1. Japanese wholesalers are misrepresenting Chinese eels as domestically produced in Japan. Is this suspected of defrauding consumers?

According to Japanese media reports, a group of Japanese manufacturers sold Chinese eels as eels from Aichi Prefecture, Japan, and it was not discovered for 5 years. After the incident was recently exposed, the person in charge bowed and apologized.

"Daily News": For the past five years, manufacturers in Gifu Prefecture have labeled Chinese eels as produced in Aichi Prefecture, and some have not indicated the place of origin.

According to Japan's Mainichi Shimbun, a wholesaler in Gifu Prefecture, Japan, Takayama Suisan Green Fruit, did not clearly distinguish between eels from Aichi Prefecture and Chinese eels, and disguised the imported eels from China as eels produced in Aichi Prefecture, Japan, and then wholesaled them to retail stores. In view of this incident, the Gifu Prefecture government issued a directive requiring manufacturers to make rectifications in accordance with the Japanese food statement. After the incident, Dong Yonglong, the head of Takayama Suisan Green Fruit, held a press conference in Takayama City, the prefecture, on the evening of the 17th, bowed and apologized, saying that he had caused trouble to relevant personnel and consumers, and deeply apologized, and would take measures to prevent such incidents from happening again.

Dong Yonglong, head of Gaoshan Aquatic Fruit, bowed and apologized at the press conference.

It is reported that from June to October this year, of the more than 30,000 eels sold by the company as produced in Aichi Prefecture, 6,640 were made in China and 3,426 were sold without indicating the origin. When the county government inspected, it was found that the company had purchased invoices for Chinese eels, but found that the sales invoices were only produced in Aichi Prefecture, thus discovering that the company disguised the origin. The company admitted the county government's accusation, claiming that when the domestic eel production was insufficient and could not meet customer demand for Japanese eels, it would use imported eels from China to replenish the stock. This fraudulent behavior lasted for at least five years.

After the incident spread, it attracted attention on the Japanese Internet. Many netizens attacked the manufacturer for fraud. On the other hand, some netizens asked: Why disguise the origin? I bought eels made in China, which are better than those made in Japan. Now there are two Japanese eels in the refrigerator, but I don’t want to eat them at all. They have been frozen for three months.

Some netizens said: The problem of disguised origin has hardly been exposed through consumer complaints, that is, as long as they are cooked, laymen cannot eat Japanese and Chinese eels.

Japanese manufacturers also paid attention to disguising Chinese eels as Japanese production and sales on Weibo. Some Weibo netizens commented: Five years ago, eels had already reached the level of Japanese eels. With the rise of eels, the quality and taste should have been out of the circle long ago.

This is suspected of deceiving consumers because this is not Japanese eel. Japan's practice is wrong and consumers have the right to know.

This behavior is indeed suspected of defrauding consumers, as the number of eels in Japan is difficult to supply the market, but this behavior is an act of defrauding consumers, and the relevant responsible personnel have bowed and apologized.

Yes, consumers have the right to know. Regardless of whether the eels are produced in Japan or not, wholesalers should inform consumers of the facts and let consumers make the decision.

2. Japanese wholesalers falsely claim that Chinese eels are made in Japan. Why do they do this?

Because there are not enough eels produced in Japan to supply the Japanese market, but Japanese eels are very popular in Japan. Although the taste and texture of Japanese eels are not even as good as those produced in China, because Japanese people like Japanese eels and the price of Japanese eels is relatively high, Japanese wholesalers have counterfeited Chinese eels as Japanese eels, and have been counterfeiting for as long as five years.

1.Why do Japanese people like to eat eel so much?

Because the Japanese believe that eating eels can replenish their body's energy and enzymes. I have always believed that the United States is the best country in the world, and I believe that it is the best country in the world. I believe that the United States is the best country in the world, and I believe that it is the best country in the world.

2. Why do Japanese people care so much about whether eels are produced in Japan?

This statement is a bit of a generalization. Not all Japanese people care whether eels are made in Japan, but some do. Because they think that eels made in Japan are of better quality, but in fact, most eels made in China are of higher quality than eels made in Japan. After the news broke that Japanese wholesalers had faked Chinese eels as Japanese eels, some Japanese netizens commented on why they faked them as Japanese eels. Eels made in China are cheap and of good quality, and he bought the most eels made in China. Therefore, the Japanese still think in the last century, and do not look at Chinese products with normal thinking.

There are two reasons why Japanese wholesalers do this. The main reason is that the supply of eels produced in Japan is insufficient. The secondary reason is that the price of eels produced in Japan is relatively high and the profit margin is relatively high.

Because only in this way can they sell more products, mainly because our country's slow sales are very good, so Japan wants to seize the opportunity. Then pretend that it is produced by them, in this way, it can also increase their popularity.

The reason is that their local production can no longer meet the demand, so they choose to purchase from China, and ultimately pass them off as products of their own country.

This behavior was carried out in order to benefit from it and to alleviate the domestic demand for eels in this way.

This is done because local production capacity is insufficient and there is no way to meet the consumption needs of the Japanese people.

3. China's total eel consumption exceeds that of Japan. Why do Chinese people like to eat eels so much?

Chinese people like to eat eels because they are delicious, and eels have rich commercial value. Another reason is that there are many varieties of eels in China. It is understood that China has always been a major exporter of eels. More than 60% of the yaki eels sold in Japan are exported from China. Seeing this data is indeed a bit surprising. It seems that Japanese people like to eat eels very much. We can see many eel menus in restaurants. Now we know that China is a major country that produces a lot of eels. Now our country has formed a complete eel production and sales chain. Domestic eels can be completed from factory to table in as fast as 72 hours, which fully meets the various needs of consumers.

The fact that China's total eel consumption has exceeded that of Japan has attracted a lot of attention. I believe that many people must be familiar with eel, which is also a favorite delicacy on many people's tables. There are relatively few consumers who eat eels here, but in many cities, the sales of eels have been very good, and my country's eel consumption accounts for about 60%-70% of the total production. The total consumption is about to surpass Japan. Many people may think that Japan is a major consumer of eels, just like me, because we can often eat eel sushi, eel fried rice and other delicacies in Japanese cuisine. Everyone must be curious why Chinese people like to eat eels so much.

I think the main reason why Chinese people like to eat eels is because they are delicious. It is so popular among people because of its tasty taste. It is understood that the number of eel-related catering businesses in China has increased year by year, and the variety of eel dishes has reached more than 60,000. It is enough to feel the Chinese people's enthusiasm and love for eels, and everyone will not resist the temptation of delicious food.

Another reason is that eels are rich in nutrients and have high nutritional value. Everyone likes this delicious and nutritious food. In addition, the eel production in our country is very high, which is also one of the important reasons why Chinese people like to eat eels.

Because eels are lazy and don't like to move, they are full of fat. This is the main reason why their meat is plump, tender, fresh and fragrant. Eels are also very nutritious and have great benefits for the human body.

Because our country can accept a wide variety of dishes, eel is very delicious as long as it is simply prepared.

Eel rice is delicious, eel is fresh, boneless and easy to cook, so it is widely loved by the public.
