The reporter learned from relevant departments that after learning this information, Hefei Food and Drug Administration and Feidong County immediately organized an investigation team to go to the enterprise site for investigation.
Through on-site inspection, no signs of cotton acquisition and use were found. Chicken is the main meat floss in this enterprise, and the production process of meat floss is normal.
Under the on-site supervision of the media, the investigation team simulated the video tooth cleaning line. After washing, the floss is really white and flocculent, which can be ignited, but it tastes like chicken and emits the smell of burnt meat when burning, which is essentially different from cotton. Cotton is made of cellulose, which can't be swallowed, and it should be odorless when burned. Through on-site inspection, the possibility that floss bread is cotton is basically ruled out.
For further verification, the investigation team sampled two pieces of fluffy bread produced by this enterprise in the Yangtze River Wholesale Market, and sent them to Anhui Food and Drug Inspection and Research Institute for testing protein and other ingredients.
Are you still worried after reading the official rumor of Hefei, the origin of meat floss? Let's continue to analyze.
Cotton thread for tooth change? Almost impossible!
1
The composition of the two is different
Dried pork floss refers to fluffy and flocculent meat products made of meat as the main raw material through boiling, dicing, skimming, blending, soup collection, frying and rubbing. Basically, all livestock meat can be made into floss, and now there are fish to make floss. The essence of floss is a kind of muscle fiber, and the main component is protein.
Cotton is the seed fiber of Malvaceae. The main component is cellulose, which is an insoluble dietary fiber.

They taste different.
Because of the different ingredients, the taste of cotton and floss is also very different.
Cotton looks soft on the surface, but it won't rot in your mouth. Dental floss will melt when you eat it in your mouth. It is very soft.
Generally speaking, cotton is an insoluble plant fiber. Although it can be disguised as fluffy floss in appearance, it tastes very different from floss. If you really pretend to floss with cotton, you will see through it as soon as you eat it.

Meat floss can also be burned.
In the video, the washed floc (fluff) is also lit with a lighter, which can be seen as blackened cotton. This reasoning is groundless.
In fact, it is a common phenomenon that food can ignite. You know, what we usually call food energy was first obtained by vacuum combustion.
Did you see it clearly? Cotton thread for tooth change? Almost impossible!
In fact, in addition to meat muffins, there are the following:
Bananas soaked in "unknown liquid" are poisonous?
Recently, a video of "Banana Soaked in Unknown Liquid" has been widely circulated in Weibo, WeChat group and friends circle. Consumers are worried that the unknown liquid is toxic, and some netizens even say it is formaldehyde.
Agricultural experts explain it this way: don't worry, it's a preservative.
Drinking soybean milk causes breast cancer?
It is said that bean products contain a lot of phytoestrogens, which may lead to female breast cancer.
The truth is: Liao Ning, director of the Breast Department of Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, said that phytoestrogens are not directly related to breast cancer. Moreover, many studies have confirmed that drinking soybean milk will not only lead to breast cancer, but also reduce the incidence of breast cancer.
Is the fan made of plastic?
A video of fans burning was circulated on the Internet. The video claims that fans contain plastic and appeals to everyone not to eat it.
In this regard, Deng, a professor at Nanchang University Food College, explained that vermicelli is generally made of mung beans and peas, and contains some starch and some protein. In addition, the fan is thin and dry, which has a large contact area with air and is easy to catch fire. Therefore, the saying that "fans can be ignited but not eaten" is a rumor.
Moreover, more importantly, plastic is polyethylene or polypropylene, which is insoluble in water and difficult to add to vermicelli.
Besides fans, it is said that rice is also made of plastic. Similarly, some people put on so-called videos. But in fact, in the video, the particles produced by the machine are not rice at all, but plastic granulation.
There are many innocent foodies lying like this in life. Next time you encounter these news, don't spread it in a hurry, pay attention to the official statement, and don't spread some false news that makes everyone uneasy. Do "rumors stop at the wise!"
