A couple more food scares...yikes


Bullfrogs tested for cholera

BULLFROGS sold at Shanghai's biggest aquatic market were proved to be safe, the Shanghai Center of Disease Control and Prevention said yesterday.

Health authorities in neighboring Suzhou claimed they found some bullfrogs from Shanghai contained bacteria that can cause cholera.

Bull frog stew is very popular here so this could potentially be a big problem.
Watermelons


The latest shocker is exploding watermelons - they blow up because farmers spray too much growth-promoting chemicals. They're eager to get big melons to market early.

Waste Oil

THE Shanghai Food and Drug Administration yesterday issued a rule requiring local eateries not to use cooking oil for more than three days if they can't control the oil quality.

 A testing method for eateries using kitchen waste oil is expected to be launched in August.
