Plastic rice is not a myth. To test for it, put the uncooked rice in water, scoop out any that floats and put it in a saucepan over a flame. The plastic rice grains will melt.
I'm pretty sure the local people are more worried about that than us tourists. The really cheap food stalls or hole in the walls that don't do business with their neighbors or serving their communities for decades or generations might engage in nefarious sale of bad food, most places do not. There are just a lot of circulating customers due to the density of 1.4+ billion people packed into major cities that will generate revenue to the tried-and-true family-owned restaurants. The chances of us tourists being fed counterfeit food is less likely than being pickpocketed these days due to the major crackdowns. It's just for shock value that people are okay with counterfeit food (they're not) and the government can only manage this fake food issue when managing a population and diverse geography of this scale. The government can do much better though. Although I'm not sure how well we (USA here) handle food safety with just a third of the population compared to China, but it's probably safer I guess? I still see lots of food recalls and local markets selling expired meats here now and then so that's always going to be an issue everywhere we travel to. Stick with higher end restaurants and generational small eateries that serve their communities is the safer bet.
Which of the 10 items do you consume each day that you have to worry about this? Most of the fake foods are made by counterfeiters for local and national consumption so you don't have to be too illogical or emotional about the export, because it's unlikely to make it to your kitchen.
As a forever plumber in the US, take my word for it when I say Chinese buffet restaurants are the absolute worst for sanitation. Now Chinese restaurants do deal with a whole lot of grease, but that's no excuse for some of the appalling things I've seen over the years
in this doku they say, maybe you could eat fake food, she should say, maybe you become real food, bcs the issue is immense! this are not isolated cases!
As an asian person I believe you. I don't think most people can tell chicken or pig or cow blood from duck blood when cooked. As far as rats, there's a difference between rice field rats/mice vs sewage rats.
I don't blame you. It's usually the real Chinese people that run restaurants purposely commit and tolerate a level of negligence that tarnishes the reputation of all Chinese cuisine very badly. But let me remind everyone, especially Sinophobes, that just because tons of "fake" eggs were caught in China doesn't mean all eggs sold at stores run by Chinese immigrants in the United States are fake too.
@@ITube4RealFun exactly, I just moved from a place in the semi boondocks and we had a problem with field mice. It wasn't a sanitation issue, it was a lack of natural predators ie cats etc
You do know that plastic is more expensive than real rice , right? (I mean making fake rice is not profitable , but contaminated rice.......ya , that's a thing.)
@@mhikari92 I saw it was real on a Chinese cable TV channel that investigated it. They went to a market, bought the "rice", and tried to cook it. It never cooked and was chemically tested, proving it was plastic. Plastic really is cheaper than rice, fyi...
They spend so much energy making the fake product when they could've used it to make the real thing. They love money so much that they risk poisoning their own of it
This is a major reason why wealthy Chinese send servants to Hong Kong regularly to purchase groceries--because HK has stricter inspections and less corruption as well as being a hub for safer food imports from other parts of the world.
I just can’t get over: the thought/brainstorming/extra steps/time/efforts creating these monstrosities is somehow easier than just doing the damn REAL thing…? I feel crazy.
Remember the guy who spent 100k just to make 80k worth of fake cash? Some people think it'd be easier and earn more money, some people use fake products to satisfy the need for that certain product, some are just stupid and think they can get away with this kind of obvious scams. TBH, I remember seeing a couple cases in this video that was already debunked as a myth. The video doesn't really cover how much of this is really a problem and honestly in the end made the KKK supporters happy.
It’s a culture thing we’ll never understand. It’s rampant in that country and no where else. It takes a sick person to be fine with poisoning an entire country.

You'd have to wonder how much time it takes to crack walnuts perfectly to save the shell. Then sell the meat and then fill the shells with concrete and seal them back up. Sounds not worth it
average people should never have to worry about it, it's a practice done to collectible walnuts that people use as hand exercise and display pieces usually a pair cost 3-6hundred RMB 100usd or so. rare one can get as high as couple thousand USD. it's a different walnut variety than normal walnut that have a thicker shell and unique pattern, the denser the better hence the concert filled
@@calaf1816 How much of those counterfeit foods do you think make it out of China instead of just being purchased by local Chinese citizens (as it was intended by those nefarious people trying to make quick money off of human lives)? Most of the food will never make it into our kitchen. How many of those top 10 items do you consume on a daily basis?
As tourists that don't know the lay of the lands like the locals, yeah, safer to stick with higher end restaurants or popular local spots that focus on feeding and trusted by their neighbors. No one is insane enough to sell fake food to their neighbors especially when it's a family-owned business for decades or generations. The fly-by or odd stalls on the streets should always be a concern, in any country if we are being honest with ourselves.
There are chickens sent to China to process and sent back here. You all need to start reading the back of cans and boxes and you will see China listed on the back of some of the food you buy. We're not that great either. Look up some of the chemicals and preservatives in your food. Majority of it you can't even pronounce.
I'd be more worried about getting fake human blood and plasma in hospital. They def give fake medicine. What about fake doctors ...... the fakery is endless.
@@billf4429 It's true that some fake foods circulate local cities. It's difficult for the government to crack down due to the large number of population that exists in China. There's only so much that the people can do to report the counterfeiters looking to make quick money off of people's lives. Eat at higher end restaurants and more popular local places to be safe. This applies to a lot of countries that do not have tight food control. Even in the USA or EU, the government can only do so much to regulate nefarious people, and the population is less than half that of China to manage.
Meanwhile, Chinese people have to contend with potentially buying and eating fake foods, while we sit comfortably talking about our feelings. Actual people are suffering throughout the world and we don't really do much about it other than just talk about how bad other countries are.
You can't really be surprised by a country with 1.4 billion people, who eat anything that moves to have some serious food supply issues. I just hope that it is contained only to their territory.
It won't. This planet can only support so much stupidity due to chemicals, plastics, and poor judgement. All in the name of making money. The planet will need catastrophe on a biblical level.
World Fish Stock in bad situation because of Chinese Illegal Fishing Fleet. They comb the ocean floor for everything and they are everywhere. Like in South America's coast, a single Chinese Fishing Boat caught 1 year worth of sea food in a day compared to local fishermen.
The fake rice is not a myth. To why you blatantly lied about that is a question. The fact is though tourists have been hospitalized and as many as over 10,000 people have died to eating fake rice.
@Fidelity Quester You bring up an important point regarding food safety concerns extending beyond just certain cuisines and into various products, including baby formula and pet food. Food safety is indeed a critical issue that affects people and animals alike, and it's a topic that requires continuous vigilance and regulation to protect consumers. 👼🏻
I can, corn syrup, fruits, vegetables full of pesticides, anything in a can or processed will kill you! The food coloring and MSG! If you read a label and can’t understand it then you have an answer
Depends. If the end goal is to make money on food alone the. Yes. If the end goal is to make money via the side effects, aka organ failure or sickness. Then their is profit to be made when patients go to a doctor. Not to mention if the patients are organ donors. In this regard, china boasts about having an organ you need for transplant in the fastest time.
But the fake foods last forever, so it can be bought/sold in markets in greater volume with no concern for it spoiling. This is gross. May God protect is all.
The companies should not ditch their oils in those gutter. They can just sell it in construction, and also companies that makes soaps. It can be filtered properly and change into something else. It can also be used for oil lamp. If you mix that with lye/caustic soda it will become soaps. I used to make soaps with used cooking oil, I give it to poor people. Or I light it up in oil lamp. YOu can also feed it to stray dogs. I mix it in soups and ground meat and rice. The stray skinny dogs outside are too emaciated they will benefit from the food and oil I need to throw away. It is not even enough because there's 100's of them outside. Everything can be of good use. My carrot and shayote and squash peels, even the parts of vegetables I don't like from cabbage and some eggplant I cut it when it has bad parts or hard parts and the parts with worms, I cooked it in a pot and I feed it to stray dogs. Chicken bones and prawn heads can be cooked untill it softens and becomes gowey, the dogs can eat it without harm when it is already melted but yes it consumes too much eletricity on the stove. The other things is not good like potato, onion, garlic and so many things that cannot be fed to animals, I bury it for plant fertilizer. I compost everything and I wash my garbage plastics and cans bottles. That is why I don't have maggots. My neighbors have maggots and their garbage stinks so much. Why throw away things that can be of used? it's just a matter of discipline. I also mix papers and cardboards in compost. The government should strictly implement segregating but they don't. They should assign people that collects trash that can be composted and the truck should deliver it in farms. All nasty things are filing up in dumpsites and it is very toxic. Omg i have a soy sauce and spices from china i think now i need to ditch it.
Why do all that when they can take the trash and sell it to people for money? That's their mindset. Not to mention they're so hungry the dogs you speak of are going to be had for dinner. There aren't any stray dogs in China.
Somewhere there are a ton of food companies here in the states having a discussion: "Hey, do you think we could get away with this? Would mean more money in OUR pockets, after all!!" "Um....it will possibly kill our customers" "Ok...how many are we talking here though? Can we cover it up? Will anyone notice?"
Once caught & found guilty those involved in producing & distributing fake/contaminated foods should be made to pay the ultimate punishment for endangering peoples health
Most of us will never have to worry about finding fake foods in our kitchens. The local Chinese citizens will have a higher chance of buying or potentially even eating those fake foods (which as the video had pointed out, it's pretty obvious that you can tell it is fake food before consuming it.) Let's not allow our decision-making process to be dictated by pure emotions and critically analyze how prevalent counterfeiters are and how likely we will run into said fake foods in our daily lives. It's a low chance. The Chinese government needs to do a better job of safeguarding their citizen and cracking down on these public health offenders for sure. 1.4+ billion people to manage with a diverse geography so it's bound to become a persisting problem with fake foods. Even here in the USA, it's not perfect with lots of food recalls and local nefarious people selling bad foods, but we are definitely more organized in terms of learning from our mistakes and ahead in overall food safety.
How you are sure and feeling safe to eat from your local Chinese restaurant how you know what they are using. Whole thing is very disturbing. Please be careful, make it home
@@surinderche3354 I do cook amazing Chinese/Asian food at home with ingredients that I bought. But sometimes that isn't possible or convenient. My potstickers are awesome!

It's true. Why not though. Especially when you talk about a country that have long histories of war and famine. Not to mention the industrial revolution occurred in China not that long ago compared to other more developed countries. But fake foods will always be a persisting issue when we talk about population management of over 1.4 billion and a diverse geography. The government can definitely do better to crack down on counterfeit foods, unless the local politicians were bribed to ignore the problem. Corruption and bribery are an issue everywhere of course. As tourists of any country and not knowing the lay of the lands, sticking with higher end restaurants and tried-and-true small eateries that have served their communities for decades or generations are the best bet when traveling. The locals have knowledge that most of us don't so it's better to play it safe. These videos are information only and does opens up a topic for further discussion.
@@GariusMarius The local got surprise as well like the famous videos last year of a guy who exposed restaurants in China using industrial chemicals to make food taste better. The video get CENSORED and DELETED quickly by the government.
We couldn’t get baby food here in Australia, (when the fake was being made) because Chinese shoppers were buying it all & selling it in China for 4x the price!
Australia is China's slave and a soon to be prison colony. This proves how bad your economy had to be. Also known for being strict towards imports and over fined a person over McDonald's...
Formula too! It was bs! I reported so many i saw buying it all and if my babies needed it and they wiped the shelves into their trolleys, I'd just walk up and take a tin or 2. Had one guy abuse me once, i told him to p*** off and said this formula is for our aussie babies not for you to sell back to china at 4x the price. Then turned and walked away 😂😂
I think it is hard to say we 100% avoid it altogether. When we go to restaurants, they likely use some kind of China imported food. If you are Asian, some things that in your culture also from China. I think avoid is better goal. These days everything is interconnected.
It doesn't make sense as a business to sell food that makes your customers ill. I get selling chicken blood as duck blood and putting dye into it to make it more appealing... but why not use food dye?
@@adeleennis2255 Even so, returning customers and word of mouth are the life of a food company... Customers getting sick from your food would make... oh wait... 😳😅 Taco Bell is successful and they are known for causing bowel issues... 🤔 So, maybe consumers aren't as reactive to sickness as I was thinking. 😮💨 I guess our own want for tasty food could be the end of us. 😩
The allowance of toxic or potentially harmful ingredients in everyday food products in the US raises concerns about public health and safety. It's important for regulators, consumers, and the food industry to work together to prioritize the safety and well-being of individuals. Stricter regulations and greater transparency regarding ingredients can contribute to a healthier food supply for all. At least in china it’s blatant and they jailed for it in the US they made poisonous ingredients in our food legal. 😮😮
@Jayjay Lizarondo Transparency and accountability are vital in the food industry. Concerns about potentially harmful ingredients highlight the need for constant vigilance and improvement in regulations."❤️
I've secretly done it and there should be an all over do no harm oath for cooks/chefs or anything dealing with food. I can not see myself serving sewer shit oil to feed people wtf! I had learned to cook because of people always saying don't eat from just anyone's kitchen. Hygiene and stuff. You got people cleaning food in their bathroom, got their pets all in the kitchen while cooking, prepping on the floor and/or some don't clean at all. I've seen it with my own eyes. Now fake food being sold for people to seriously eat? I've been aware of fake honey. It's really syrup so I've either bought from farms or stopped eating it. At least it's still edible just false advertising but I can't imagine selling off poison to people like that. sick
I heard about the rice and gutter oil. But something I found out last month about Coffee mate powder creamer, it's flammable. I stopped using it after eons of my #1 coffee creamer. I now use half n half.
As a Taiwanese (in short , I speak Chinese as native language) I have to say I never heard the fake egg story (and I'm a food science major , got a B.S. on that , and worked at my local FDA branch for a while....so I should know. I think it's more likely just a urban legend.....after all , those chemicals are not really in fact cheaper than real eggs.....) And pig/chicken blood also popular in Chinese cuisine.(Just to be clarified , it's not which animal's blood were used that it the problem(OK , if considering labeling , pricing and allergic ingredients , it is) , it's the toxic chemical and dye that being problematic.) BTW , if you are OK with western style blood sausage or blood pudding.....than just consider the Chinese duck/pig/chicken/goat blood as the Asian version of it.(Which is technically correct)
Excuse me i had been in china guilin actually... And got those rubber coated with soy sauce which is sold by a local store... It was awful... Or squid that like rubber yea...
I remember when i worked in Chana the first time our "handler" showed us around her would point out where not to buy food. He did not want us to get sick because the places he point out tended to sell fake food. He was a good guys, never sugarcoated anything and wanted us to be safe.
Tons and tons of plastic rice were sent to Africa. A young man from China showed you how to find out if you are eating real rice or rice that could have something else in it.
I lived in Austria for 3 months and the food there is sooo healthy I’ve never eaten healthier food since. A lot of food substances and additives are banned there too so if something is banned in Austria e.g. the colourant and preservative tartrazine, take note they don’t joke about it.

China's economy has collapsed. Foreign businesses have left China. Foreigners have left China. There is another COVID lockdown for those who cannot present a card otherwise. Food is not abundant like it was before the pandemic. There has been floods caused by recent typhoons and earthquakes. Too, the pay income now is much lower as 50% stated by chinese in China.
Not to undermine your concerns or disregard your feelings. But the prevalence of us as tourists buying and actually consuming these fake foods are low. Even foods that get imported into our countries from other countries aren't likely to end up in our kitchens. Without the knowledge and lay of the lands as locals, it's a safer bet to stick with higher end restaurants when we travel to other countries, not just China. Patronage at the smaller restaurants that have served their local communities and neighbors for decades or generations are also unlikely to sell us tainted foods. It would be insane to suddenly change the ingredients, texture, or taste of what they have been selling to their local folks for decades. Fake foods is an issue, but very likely only affects the local citizens than us in other countries. However, the Chinese governments needs to do more to crack down on counterfeit foods for sure. No excuses even if it's 1.4+billion people and a diverse geography to contend with. But then again, I'm not sure how other countries even handle food safety. Even in the USA alone, we have lots of food recalls, local nefarious people selling expired or bad foods as well, and we have only a third of the population and a far more tried-and-true food safety and public health system, that while isn't perfect, it's doing quite well so far. If we learn about the levels of acceptable toxic ingredients, insect parts, rodent droppings, or allergic concerns by the FDA, most of us will probably go organic (not perfect as well) if we can afford to. :)

What's "industrial salt"? Sodium Chloride NaCl is what we use for cooking and it's usually industrially mined and processed. To avoid high blood pressure there are substitutes made from potassium chloride KCl. In Chemistry every ionic bond substance is called salt. Without the information what it is the term "industrial salt" is pointless.
@Abraxas Jinx You bring up a valid point! In some cases, the effort, resources, and ingredients required to create a convincing fake version of a food item might indeed cost as much, if not more, than making the real thing from scratch. The concept of creating "fake" or imitation foods often involves advanced food science and technology, which can be expensive. Ultimately, whether it's imitation meats, dairy alternatives, or other substitute products, consumers make choices based on factors like taste, convenience, health considerations, and personal values.
@@BabbleTop what consumers do consciously does not factor here. This is done to scam people and give them a false product that may kill them. The comparison to meat substitutes and oat milk is asinine; the form of fake food in this video is not actually even food. When I buy a pack of veggie dogs, the ingredients are listed right there, and there are systems in place to ensure that they aren't lying. The practice here in the video is driven by deprivation - they don't have any food to sell. And so they go to these lengths to make a coin - and they don't utilize any fancy "advanced food science and technology". The people who are likely buying this ick aren't going so much for "taste, convenience, health considerations, or personal values", they're just as desperate as the seller.
@Abraxas Jinx You raise a valid and important point about the distinction between legitimate food products and scams that may pose health risks. It's essential for consumers to be aware of the potential risks associated with purchasing food items from unverified or unregulated sources. Your concerns highlight the importance of consumer education and regulatory oversight to protect individuals from fraudulent or dangerous food products. Thank you for sharing your perspective on this matter.💯
You don’t make rice, you grow it over months of hard effort and financial investment. Then you have to have the right weather and temperatures for a good crop. Then it needs to be harvested and transported. That takes a lot more effort, investment, and people then just making it out of plastic. Industrial salts don’t need to be purified because they’re not meant to be eaten. Purification takes extra time, money, facilities, and practices to produce. Non-gutter oil requires harvested grains, vegetables, or legumes. That produce requires clean facilities and practices to process the produce into safe, edible oil. That requires time and money. Gutter oil takes minimal effort and bare bones facilities to create in comparison to real food grade oils.
@@adeleennis2255 thank you for the breakdown, that makes a lot of sense. It is sad that so many people are forced to consume these products. There is plenty of money and resources around the globe to support *everyone* , but that would require multi-billionaires to become mere single-billionaires, and possibly multi-millionaires to subsist on meager millionaire incomes.
Yea it's called "Chicecream Ice Cream". A quick Google fact check for informational purposes identified that it was just overblown. Similar to some brands of Japanese ice cream that doesn't melt (not the dry ice kinds that we can find in local supermarkets), the key ingredient to prevent melting is rice flour. Rice flour in certain concentrations or temperatures (denatured) can help stabilize ice cream from melting even under certain situations. Other more well-known ice cream makers in the USA have used saw-dust as stabilizers. Like the stuff that goes into our foods that we shouldn't eat too much of can be eye opening if we learn more about how they're made or what types of artificial ingredients go into making it. But it's better to be of blissful ignorance than to have critical observation sometimes. :D
Not just fake food. I bought a beautiful blanket. After washing it, it was made out of paper. Belt made out of paper. Black ear mushroom made out of some kind of hair and dyed with black ink. They were too poor for too long. So now so greedy. They said people wear shoes are afraid of people without shoes. Go figure what it means! No shoes poor people are desperate to do anything to get your shoes.
The amount of dangerous foods we already eat this is no big surprise! I mean if all these foods are so bad all these people in those countries would be dead still I wouldn't eat it!! If I new that's what it was to begin with!
The video had pointed out that it's pretty obvious that we can distinguish the fake food from the real foods. It's not likely to end up in any of our kitchens or mouths anytime soon.
One thing you didn't mention is the stinky tofu. The traditional method is through fermentation, but some Chinese vendors are actually marinating the tofu with a bit of animal or human shit to produce that stinky flavor. Bottom line: Avoid going to China or buying its food products. If you need to go there, bring your own food or your hunting gear.
@Ken C I understand that you may have concerns about specific food practices or cultural practices related to food. It's important to approach such topics with accuracy and sensitivity. Stinky tofu is a traditional fermented tofu dish that is popular in some East Asian countries, particularly in China and Taiwan. The characteristic strong smell of stinky tofu comes from the fermentation process, which can vary in duration and method depending on regional and personal preferences. 😊
Chinese food, when real, is some of the most exotic food in the world. Chinese food when fake, or "substitute" can be the most poison substance in the world!!!

This is a major reason why wealthy Chinese send servants to Hong Kong regularly to purchase groceries--because HK has stricter inspections and less corruption as well as being a hub for safer food imports from other parts of the world.
gotta wonder what is in some foods here in the States
Not anymore.
It's sick what people will do for money... 😞
Very weird. They told me commies weren’t greedy.
This adds to the many reasons I never want to visit China
I just can’t get over: the thought/brainstorming/extra steps/time/efforts creating these monstrosities is somehow easier than just doing the damn REAL thing…? I feel crazy.
I’m glad I live in AMERICA and never buy any Chinese food products.I choose Japan made only .
in a culture obsessed with cutting costs the consumers pay the price
Remember the guy who spent 100k just to make 80k worth of fake cash? Some people think it'd be easier and earn more money, some people use fake products to satisfy the need for that certain product, some are just stupid and think they can get away with this kind of obvious scams. TBH, I remember seeing a couple cases in this video that was already debunked as a myth. The video doesn't really cover how much of this is really a problem and honestly in the end made the KKK supporters happy.
Because China.
It’s a culture thing we’ll never understand. It’s rampant in that country and no where else. It takes a sick person to be fine with poisoning an entire country.

they probably did that in order to cheat the weighing scale. since do alot will be very obvious when you scale it
average people should never have to worry about it, it's a practice done to collectible walnuts that people use as hand exercise and display pieces usually a pair cost 3-6hundred RMB 100usd or so. rare one can get as high as couple thousand USD. it's a different walnut variety than normal walnut that have a thicker shell and unique pattern, the denser the better hence the concert filled

@@calaf1816 How much of those counterfeit foods do you think make it out of China instead of just being purchased by local Chinese citizens (as it was intended by those nefarious people trying to make quick money off of human lives)? Most of the food will never make it into our kitchen. How many of those top 10 items do you consume on a daily basis?
As tourists that don't know the lay of the lands like the locals, yeah, safer to stick with higher end restaurants or popular local spots that focus on feeding and trusted by their neighbors. No one is insane enough to sell fake food to their neighbors especially when it's a family-owned business for decades or generations. The fly-by or odd stalls on the streets should always be a concern, in any country if we are being honest with ourselves.
There are chickens sent to China to process and sent back here. You all need to start reading the back of cans and boxes and you will see China listed on the back of some of the food you buy.

@@billf4429 It's true that some fake foods circulate local cities. It's difficult for the government to crack down due to the large number of population that exists in China. There's only so much that the people can do to report the counterfeiters looking to make quick money off of people's lives. Eat at higher end restaurants and more popular local places to be safe. This applies to a lot of countries that do not have tight food control. Even in the USA or EU, the government can only do so much to regulate nefarious people, and the population is less than half that of China to manage.
Meanwhile, Chinese people have to contend with potentially buying and eating fake foods, while we sit comfortably talking about our feelings. Actual people are suffering throughout the world and we don't really do much about it other than just talk about how bad other countries are.
@@ronniekrula4153 Yep. Our a lot of our food is horrible yet somehow its ok.

It cost more to fake these foods then to just have the real one.
Depends. If the end goal is to make money on food alone the. Yes.
If the end goal is to make money via the side effects, aka organ failure or sickness. Then their is profit to be made when patients go to a doctor. Not to mention if the patients are organ donors. In this regard, china boasts about having an organ you need for transplant in the fastest time.
Can't find or grow the real foods. But they have tons of plastic.
But the fake foods last forever, so it can be bought/sold in markets in greater volume with no concern for it spoiling. This is gross. May God protect is all.
The companies should not ditch their oils in those gutter. They can just sell it in construction, and also companies that makes soaps. It can be filtered properly and change into something else. It can also be used for oil lamp. If you mix that with lye/caustic soda it will become soaps. I used to make soaps with used cooking oil, I give it to poor people. Or I light it up in oil lamp. YOu can also feed it to stray dogs. I mix it in soups and ground meat and rice. The stray skinny dogs outside are too emaciated they will benefit from the food and oil I need to throw away. It is not even enough because there's 100's of them outside. Everything can be of good use. My carrot and shayote and squash peels, even the parts of vegetables I don't like from cabbage and some eggplant I cut it when it has bad parts or hard parts and the parts with worms, I cooked it in a pot and I feed it to stray dogs. Chicken bones and prawn heads can be cooked untill it softens and becomes gowey, the dogs can eat it without harm when it is already melted but yes it consumes too much eletricity on the stove. The other things is not good like potato, onion, garlic and so many things that cannot be fed to animals, I bury it for plant fertilizer. I compost everything and I wash my garbage plastics and cans bottles. That is why I don't have maggots. My neighbors have maggots and their garbage stinks so much. Why throw away things that can be of used? it's just a matter of discipline. I also mix papers and cardboards in compost. The government should strictly implement segregating but they don't. They should assign people that collects trash that can be composted and the truck should deliver it in farms. All nasty things are filing up in dumpsites and it is very toxic. Omg i have a soy sauce and spices from china i think now i need to ditch it.
Why do all that when they can take the trash and sell it to people for money? That's their mindset. Not to mention they're so hungry the dogs you speak of are going to be had for dinner. There aren't any stray dogs in China.
Where there is money to be made, some people are going to find ways even at the cost innocent people’s lives.
"Chinese people love honey almost as much as Winnie the Pooh".
Somewhere in China one Xi Jinping got offended.
Somewhere there are a ton of food companies here in the states having a discussion:
"Hey, do you think we could get away with this? Would mean more money in OUR pockets, after all!!"
"Um....it will possibly kill our customers"
"Ok...how many are we talking here though? Can we cover it up? Will anyone notice?"
They use half edible ingredients like additives and dyes. Sugar in itself is poison and they profit very well off of it.

I try as much as I can to avoid buying foodstuff from the country.
Most of us will never have to worry about finding fake foods in our kitchens. The local Chinese citizens will have a higher chance of buying or potentially even eating those fake foods (which as the video had pointed out, it's pretty obvious that you can tell it is fake food before consuming it.) Let's not allow our decision-making process to be dictated by pure emotions and critically analyze how prevalent counterfeiters are and how likely we will run into said fake foods in our daily lives. It's a low chance. The Chinese government needs to do a better job of safeguarding their citizen and cracking down on these public health offenders for sure. 1.4+ billion people to manage with a diverse geography so it's bound to become a persisting problem with fake foods. Even here in the USA, it's not perfect with lots of food recalls and local nefarious people selling bad foods, but we are definitely more organized in terms of learning from our mistakes and ahead in overall food safety.
I make every effort not to eat any food that is imported from China. Having said that, I love the Chinese food from our local Chinese restaurant.

It's true. Why not though. Especially when you talk about a country that have long histories of war and famine. Not to mention the industrial revolution occurred in China not that long ago compared to other more developed countries. But fake foods will always be a persisting issue when we talk about population management of over 1.4 billion and a diverse geography. The government can definitely do better to crack down on counterfeit foods, unless the local politicians were bribed to ignore the problem. Corruption and bribery are an issue everywhere of course. As tourists of any country and not knowing the lay of the lands, sticking with higher end restaurants and tried-and-true small eateries that have served their communities for decades or generations are the best bet when traveling.

The allowance of toxic or potentially harmful ingredients in everyday food products in the US raises concerns about public health and safety. It's important for regulators, consumers, and the food industry to work together to prioritize the safety and well-being of individuals. Stricter regulations and greater transparency regarding ingredients can contribute to a healthier food supply for all.
At least in china it’s blatant and they jailed for it in the US they made poisonous ingredients in our food legal. 😮😮

Now fake food being sold for people to seriously eat? I've been aware of fake honey. It's really syrup so I've either bought from farms or stopped eating it. At least it's still edible just false advertising but I can't imagine selling off poison to people like that. sick

I have to say I never heard the fake egg story (and I'm a food science major , got a B.S. on that , and worked at my local FDA branch for a while....so I should know. I think it's more likely just a urban legend.....after all , those chemicals are not really in fact cheaper than real eggs.....)
And pig/chicken blood also popular in Chinese cuisine.(Just to be clarified , it's not which animal's blood were used that it the problem(OK , if considering labeling , pricing and allergic ingredients , it is) , it's the toxic chemical and dye that being problematic.)
BTW , if you are OK with western style blood sausage or blood pudding.....than just consider the Chinese duck/pig/chicken/goat blood as the Asian version of it.(Which is technically correct)

Not to undermine your concerns or disregard your feelings. But the prevalence of us as tourists buying and actually consuming these fake foods are low. Even foods that get imported into our countries from other countries aren't likely to end up in our kitchens. Without the knowledge and lay of the lands as locals, it's a safer bet to stick with higher end restaurants when we travel to other countries, not just China. Patronage at the smaller restaurants that have served their local communities and neighbors for decades or generations are also unlikely to sell us tainted foods. It would be insane to suddenly change the ingredients, texture, or taste of what they have been selling to their local folks for decades. Fake foods is an issue, but very likely only affects the local citizens than us in other countries. However, the Chinese governments needs to do more to crack down on counterfeit foods for sure. No excuses even if it's 1.4+billion people and a diverse geography to contend with. But then again, I'm not sure how other countries even handle food safety. Even in the USA alone, we have lots of food recalls, local nefarious people selling expired or bad foods as well, and we have only a third of the population and a far more tried-and-true food safety and public health system, that while isn't perfect, it's doing quite well so far. If we learn about the levels of acceptable toxic ingredients, insect parts, rodent droppings, or allergic concerns by the FDA, most of us will probably go organic (not perfect as well) if we can afford to. :)

Some of these sound like the effort, work, and supplies that go into these foods to make a fake would cost more than just making the real thing.
@Abraxas Jinx You bring up a valid point! In some cases, the effort, resources, and ingredients required to create a convincing fake version of a food item might indeed cost as much, if not more, than making the real thing from scratch. The concept of creating "fake" or imitation foods often involves advanced food science and technology, which can be expensive. Ultimately, whether it's imitation meats, dairy alternatives, or other substitute products, consumers make choices based on factors like taste, convenience, health considerations, and personal values.
@@BabbleTop what consumers do consciously does not factor here. This is done to scam people and give them a false product that may kill them. The comparison to meat substitutes and oat milk is asinine; the form of fake food in this video is not actually even food. When I buy a pack of veggie dogs, the ingredients are listed right there, and there are systems in place to ensure that they aren't lying. The practice here in the video is driven by deprivation - they don't have any food to sell. And so they go to these lengths to make a coin - and they don't utilize any fancy "advanced food science and technology".
The people who are likely buying this ick aren't going so much for "taste, convenience, health considerations, or personal values", they're just as desperate as the seller.
@Abraxas Jinx You raise a valid and important point about the distinction between legitimate food products and scams that may pose health risks. It's essential for consumers to be aware of the potential risks associated with purchasing food items from unverified or unregulated sources. Your concerns highlight the importance of consumer education and regulatory oversight to protect individuals from fraudulent or dangerous food products. Thank you for sharing your perspective on this matter.💯
You don’t make rice, you grow it over months of hard effort and financial investment. Then you have to have the right weather and temperatures for a good crop. Then it needs to be harvested and transported. That takes a lot more effort, investment, and people then just making it out of plastic. Industrial salts don’t need to be purified because they’re not meant to be eaten. Purification takes extra time, money, facilities, and practices to produce. Non-gutter oil requires harvested grains, vegetables, or legumes. That produce requires clean facilities and practices to process the produce into safe, edible oil. That requires time and money. Gutter oil takes minimal effort and bare bones facilities to create in comparison to real food grade oils.
@@adeleennis2255 thank you for the breakdown, that makes a lot of sense. It is sad that so many people are forced to consume these products.

... forgot the brand BUT there is a Chinese ice cream that doesn't melt....even if you put a lighter to it.😳
Yea it's called "Chicecream Ice Cream". A quick Google fact check for informational purposes identified that it was just overblown. Similar to some brands of Japanese ice cream that doesn't melt (not the dry ice kinds that we can find in local supermarkets), the key ingredient to prevent melting is rice flour. Rice flour in certain concentrations or temperatures (denatured) can help stabilize ice cream from melting even under certain situations. Other more well-known ice cream makers in the USA have used saw-dust as stabilizers. Like the stuff that goes into our foods that we shouldn't eat too much of can be eye opening if we learn more about how they're made or what types of artificial ingredients go into making it. But it's better to be of blissful ignorance than to have critical observation sometimes. :D

The amount of dangerous foods we already eat this is no big surprise! I mean if all these foods are so bad all these people in those countries would be dead still I wouldn't eat it!! If I new that's what it was to begin with!
@dave Mustaki Yup, eating these food could really be dangerous and one might even get sick when consuming foods like these 😞
The video had pointed out that it's pretty obvious that we can distinguish the fake food from the real foods. It's not likely to end up in any of our kitchens or mouths anytime soon.
3:22 it's a whole lot of wrong eating " RAT" MEET.....🤢🤮
Used to live in China and I new 3 of them but it is still very disturbing to think of it
I don’t know about you but I am really grateful for the Chinese Police who arrest false food purveyors.
One thing you didn't mention is the stinky tofu. The traditional method is through fermentation, but some Chinese vendors are actually marinating the tofu with a bit of animal or human shit to produce that stinky flavor.
Bottom line: Avoid going to China or buying its food products. If you need to go there, bring your own food or your hunting gear.
@Ken C I understand that you may have concerns about specific food practices or cultural practices related to food. It's important to approach such topics with accuracy and sensitivity. Stinky tofu is a traditional fermented tofu dish that is popular in some East Asian countries, particularly in China and Taiwan. The characteristic strong smell of stinky tofu comes from the fermentation process, which can vary in duration and method depending on regional and personal preferences. 😊
Yuck! 😳
5:43 - I laughed more to this reference than I should.
Yo the chinese be doing some foul shit to the food. Pretty despicable to do shit like this to people just to make a couple bucks
Yes,it all true but it also in India and i have seen both plastic egg and plastic rice( it melt when you heat it )and it around 2019
Yes indeed, but China is more dangerous because they export more
Chinese food, when real, is some of the most exotic food in the world. Chinese food when fake, or "substitute" can be the most poison substance in the world!!! Yes, about 40%, (At one time), of rice was plastic!!! The rice is being watched more carefully and the fake rice is becoming rarer to find in rice dishes. Thank The Lord!!!
你們可真搞笑
Had to stop at gutter oil. Lol
So if I ever go to China I'll make sure I bring my own food in my luggage
@Kazi anin HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA NICE IDEA BRO but make sure you bring a lot of can goods😁
I see that you have avoided the subject of dog meat and the fact that gangs go around stealing people's pets to make soup or the farms where dozens of dogs are stuffed into each cage before being either boiled or scorched alive. The unluckiest ones are skinned alive first. Or talk about the crocodile farms and how they are skinned to make super expensive bags for very high end stores. Horrific.
I'd expect nothing less from a communist nation.
In China also Vietnam when you travel there be careful what food you eat
Glad i saw this video
@Renamon 565 Thank you for watching because you have a new lesson here on my RUclips channel🥰
Great job 👏👏👏and crack down on American fake food as well like fast food industry.❤❤❤
