April 1, Beijing, "network food service catering safety management specification" will be implemented, the provisions of the takeaway merchants should use takeaway packaging sealing sticker or a one-time sealing of the outer bag and other sealing methods, so that the sealing sticker outer packaging bag mouth can not be recovered after opening.
Outside the office building, takeaway packaging love to fool around
From Jianguomen to Guomao, along Chang'an Street, the distribution of large and small office buildings. On weekdays, countless office workers are busy at their workstations.
Once at noon, outside the office buildings began to bustle, yellow, blue, wearing a variety of colors coat takeaway riders, began to shuttle between the buildings. Riders carrying takeout to the door of the building to run, office workers out of the building to meet. Some of these takeaways seem to be packaged very carefully, with sealing tags to seal the bags tightly. Some of them look much more casual and are not tightly packaged.
An office building near Jianwai SOHO has tables at every exit. But the amount of takeout at noon is too large, the table can not be shelved, can only be placed on the ground. Takeaway riders call the orderer, and then take a picture of the takeaway, then turn around and run to the next destination.
The reporter observed that most of the well-known restaurant brands, are in the takeaway package seal with tape or staples to seal. However, there are some restaurants where the takeaway is simply packaged in a plastic bag with a live button tied at the mouth of the bag and that's it. There are 26 takeaways*** placed at the entrance, 11 of which are not sealed. These "a tie it" takeaway, including small noodles, cold skin, pickled fish, risotto and other types. The takeout on the ground can not be put on the ground for a long time, it is from the office building out of the ordering of food to take away.
The Jiuxianqiao area is also a concentrated area of office buildings. The same is the lunch hour, the takeaway riders and orderers of the "joint" time. The CBD is slightly different from the high-rise CBD, where there are many corporate parks. Some of these parks are very large, and the takeaway riders seem to be in a hurry, sometimes after they have made a phone call to the person who ordered the food, they hang the takeaway on the fence of the park and then turn around and leave. Some of these takeaways hanging on the fence are not sealed.
Outside an office building, the smart takeaway lockers are no longer enough, and takeaways are gathered in piles on the ground. And in the CBD to see the situation is similar, each pile of takeout can always see a few unsealed sign, a Yunnan cuisine, a Hunan cuisine, a wonton, a pickled fish, are not sealed sign.
Fast food stalls Packing takeout always try to save trouble
The reporter wrote down the name of these businesses that do not have a seal, and searched for their location on the takeout platform, and found that the majority of these businesses are concentrated in the food court, food court near the office building.
Commuters do not just eat takeout, they will also go out of the office building, to the restaurant dine. There are many large and small restaurants in Jianwai SOHO, and there is a food court in Building 9. Like all such food courts, there are simple and affordable fast-food stalls with hot roasted pork, rice noodles, ramen, steamed vegetables and more. At meal times, the food court is so smoky and crowded that you need to queue up to buy your meal. From time to time, there are takeaway riders come in, quickly take a few takeaways.
The reporter saw, here a stall 'waitress is nervous about loading rice, food, she needs to quickly respond to the end of the empty tray waiting for customers. At the same time, she also need to neatly pack, to deal with the orders that continue to descend from the takeaway platform. She saw a few lunch boxes filled, and then put the lunch box into a plastic bag, simply tied two knots on the plastic bag, no sealing tag, placed on the table, waiting for takeout riders to pick up food.
Reporters here in another stall, ordered a roasted takeaway self-pickup. The waiter put the fire roast into a small paper bag, and then packed in a plastic bag, the same two knots. The reporter asked the waitress why the plastic bag was not sealed. She replied: "Oh, is afraid of take-out workers take away the contents? The boss did not tell us to seal, we reflect this with the boss."
In Jiuxianqiao Bitao buy life plaza on the first floor, there are also a lot of food and beverage stalls, at noon time people bustling. A stall selling bibimbap, takeout was simply tied a very loose buckle, waiting for the deliveryman to take away. At a barbecue stall, the takeaway on the pick-up counter is also unsealed.
The cost of sealing may be included in the cost of packing
The reporter asked a few shopkeepers who didn't seal their takeaways, and most of them said they hadn't heard of the requirement. In a stall selling pies, the clerk put three pies were packed in small paper bags, and put into a large paper bag, and stapled the large paper bag sealed. He told reporters, now takeaway profits are slim, "mainly to attract traffic, do not make money, this big paper bag will have to be a dollar a ".
On the e-commerce platform, the clerk said 1 yuan a big paper bag, about 0.5 yuan to sell 1, print the color need to pay another fee, 50,000 paper bags probably charge 260 yuan. This kind of paper bag in the e-commerce platform a lot, most in the sale price between 0.3 yuan to 0.5 yuan, large quantities and discounts. Plastic bags are even cheaper, 50 only 2 yuan.
Because the country recently began to gradually implement the takeaway seal, so the e-commerce platform, there are a lot of takeaway seal suppliers. One supplier said business has been good lately, "a few hundred orders a day". His takeaway seal, is a disposable sticker, printed with "thank you" "please make sure the seal is intact before signing" and other words. Customers can also be customized according to the needs of this kind of sealing stickers per 1000 stickers sold 13.99 yuan, a large number of concessions.
The reporter noted that ordering food on the takeaway platform, packing fee has become a common charge. The pie store in Jiuxianqiao, which is carefully packed in a paper bag and uses a sealing tag, charges a packing fee of 2 yuan. This fee appears to be enough to cover the cost of purchasing the packaging and sealing tags. The one in Jianwai SOHO, which doesn't seal its tags, also charged 1.5 yuan for packing.

With many years of experience in the restaurant business, Lao Tang told reporters that it is really not easy to make money in the takeaway today, and that the consumer has to make a profit. The platform to draw a profit. A simple seal will not bring much pressure on operating costs. Some small stalls did not use the seal, mainly the will is not strong. "Doing fast food to save time, is speed first." He said that his restaurant unit price is higher, more attention to quality, so he will seal the takeaway, "for themselves, but also responsible for customers."
"With my daily work observation, there are now about 60% of takeout sealed." Rider Lao Xu observed the situation and the reporter survey is very close to those who did not give the use of takeaway seals, most of them are small stalls, small restaurants.

He said the black sheep are a tiny minority, and a takeaway with the seal intact is the safest for every rider who wants to do their job properly, "I think the seal is safer for the consumer, the restaurant, and us riders. We want all takeout to be sealed."
"I don't know if sealing tags can completely solve the food safety problem, but at least it's an improvement." Xiao Qiao said he has now tried to order as little takeaway as possible, and order also from big stores with good packaging. But sometimes still can not help but point some small store for a change of taste, I hope the small store takeaway can also use the seal.
"I'm not going to reject it now because there is no seal, because time is tight, have a bite to eat, can't talk too much." Xiao Qiang said he is looking forward to the situation after April 1, "I want to know by then, will all the takeaways can implement the seal."

"When the relevant provisions began to be implemented, there is no room for merchants to be willing or unwilling. With the seal, the responsibility is clearer, the businessmen have to have higher requirements for the quality of their products; for the riders, the seal is a protection for the image of this group; for consumers, at least the risk of problems in the transportation process, was significantly reduced."

Previously in January this year, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Market Supervision has issued the "network food service catering safety management norms" (hereinafter referred to as the "norms"), which introduced a series of norms for network food service, and announced that it will begin to implement in April this year.
For the takeaway sealing this requirement, previously reported in the media, according to relevant media reports show that there are businesses in Beijing have begun to use a unified labeling stickers or sealing takeaway packaging, but most of the chain companies, and there are also restaurant staff on the "norms" of the rules to understand not much. Considering the cost of sealing packages, some restaurants, especially small ones, said that upgrading packages may increase costs and efforts. Takeaway riders, on the other hand, generally said that they are more looking forward to restaurants using sealing stickers or stronger packaging methods.
Wu Ying, vice president of the China Culinary Association Association and spokesperson, pointed out in this regard that there is less than a month to go before the implementation of the specification, and that it must take time to cultivate the natural growth to a unified specification, and that the implementation of various types of specifications and standards aims to promote the further development of online catering.
At the same time, the "norms" also proposed that the network food service providers should be provided with food production time, recommended time limits and other food-related information. According to the network order food production, the same order of food should be produced at the same time, can not be produced at the same time, should be reasonable arrangements for the order of meals, the first production of easy to save the food. And after the food production should be immediately packaged for distribution, the perishable food to be stored temporary storage time should not exceed 1 hour, the temporary storage temperature of hot storage should be more than 60 ℃, cold storage should be 8 ℃ or less.
In order to avoid food waste, the "norms" require that the network food service platform should be true and accurate release of food service providers to provide food photos, prices, portion sizes, specifications, or recommended number of people to consume and other information related to the transaction, and the platform should also be in the appropriate location on the page to identify anti-food waste of relevant information, such as "food conservation " "Order in moderation" and so on. In addition, the network of food service providers should provide "small meals", "small dishes".
In addition, in terms of food service providers, the "norms" requires that the platform should review and display the license of the food service provider into the network and other relevant qualifications.

At present, Beijing has a part of the catering business takeaway sealing, but at the same time there are some restaurants just simply tie a knot in the bag, or use staples, transparent tape or wrapped in plastic wrap and other traditional ways to encapsulate the takeaway.
At a takeaway pick-up point, I saw that the takeaway bags of many restaurants, such as Taoyuan Casserole Rice, Long Jiang Pork Feet Rice, and He Tai Sheng, were not sealed. Takeaways such as Laoxiang Chicken, Wallace's and Golden Millions were sealed with staples.
Seal the label so that customers can eat at ease at the same time to promote the brand
In the sealing of the use of the label, most of the restaurant chain responsible person said by the company's unified arrangements, the recognition of the move, "and packing together with the completion of a few seconds, no trouble." "Ensure that the takeaway has not been demolished in the middle of the day, so that customers can rest assured."
Tan duck blood stores responsible person said, in the past is to take plastic lunch boxes to pack takeaway, will be uniformly affixed with self-adhesive sealing stickers, now the company is equipped with a sealing machine, lunch boxes replaced with aluminum, aluminum lunch boxes packaged with a sealing machine to deal with the "If you remove the lid halfway through the process, there will be obvious traces of it," the equivalent of a sealing sticker role.
Mr. Yang, deputy manager of the second pickled fish store, said that the restaurant did not give the takeaway with a sealing tag, had encountered customers called takeaway and found that "pickled fish is cold" "and dine-in is not the same", to the restaurant played a bad review. After the epidemic, the company focused on the development of the takeaway industry, the provisions of each pickled fish takeaway need to post self-adhesive stickers, which, in addition to the printed brand name and animation image, there are warm tips, so that customers can eat at ease at the same time, but also to publicize the brand characteristics.
A Thai restaurant did not give the takeaway with a seal, the person in charge explained that although a seal is only a few cents, stick a seal only a few seconds, but if more than a hundred single takeaway down the time-consuming and cost will be quite a lot of small and medium-sized catering enterprises have to think again and again.
