Industrial wax and inks found in Chinese noodle production
The latest food scandal started to come to light on Thursday when more than 5.5 tons of starch noodles that were suspected of being tainted were confiscated and their producer was put under investigation for allegedly having used black ink, industrial dye and paraffin wax to produce them in Gangkou township in the province's Zhongshan city, according to Guangzhou Daily.
This appears to be a domestic Chinese problem but illustrates the all too common problem with corruption in the Chinese food supply. Our own food supply is often made in part with Chinese ingredients. Good thing the FDA is increasing their inspection process for imports.
