Recently, an old man ordered two vegetarian dishes in the canteen of a university in Wuhan, which cost 82 yuan, causing widespread concern. This incident once again made people think and discuss the issues of food safety and price justice.

It is reported that the old man ordered two vegetarian dishes in the university cafeteria. When he got the meal, he found that the price was 82 yuan, and there was no obvious sign in the lunch box indicating the price. Upon inquiry, the old man learned that the price was set by the university canteen itself, and the vegetarian meal was not the most expensive dish.

This incident triggered a heated discussion among netizens, and many people questioned whether the charging standard of university canteens was reasonable. Some people think that this high-priced vegetarian dish is totally out of line with the consumption level of ordinary people, and colleges and universities should take into account the actual needs of special groups such as students and the elderly and reasonably control food prices. In addition, some people worry that there may be problems such as price fraud and fake and shoddy food in university canteens.

First of all, in view of the fact that this old man spent money on vegetarian dishes in 82 yuan, we need to know the management mode and charging standard of university canteens. University canteens are usually run by schools or partners, and the charging standards should be formulated by schools and relevant administrative departments, and should be publicized inside the canteens.

However, in reality, there are some problems in many university canteens, such as opaque prices, unclear signs and inadequate protection of rights and interests. These problems have seriously affected the interests of consumers, and also damaged the basic principles of food safety and price justice.

In this regard, the university canteen said that the price is indeed set by itself, but it also admitted that there may be problems such as poor communication and unclear price labels. They said that they would strengthen the management of food prices and labels to ensure fairness and reasonableness.

This incident only reflects one aspect of university canteens, and we need to discuss the issues of price justice and food safety more deeply.

First of all, college canteens should consider the needs of special groups such as students and the elderly, and formulate reasonable charging standards. In the eyes of many people, it is really too expensive to buy two vegetarian dishes in 82 yuan, which does not meet the consumption level of consumers. Therefore, college canteens should set different charging standards according to different consumer groups to meet the needs of different groups.

Secondly, university canteens should strengthen the supervision of food safety and quality. In modern society, food safety is a serious problem, and university canteens, as the main food service providers for students and the elderly, should pay more attention to food safety. Therefore, college canteens should establish a sound food safety supervision mechanism to ensure that the food provided conforms to relevant national laws and standards and avoid problems such as counterfeit and shoddy food and expired food.

in addition, we also need to realize that promoting price justice and food safety requires the concerted efforts of the whole society. Government departments should strengthen the supervision of food safety and price justice, formulate more perfect relevant regulations and standards, and increase the punishment for violations. At the same time, consumers should also improve their awareness of self-protection, pay attention to the issues of food quality and price justice in consumption, do not easily believe in false propaganda, and choose reputable and guaranteed catering service providers.

In a word, the incident that the old man spent 82 yuan to buy vegetarian dishes once again reminds us of the importance of food safety and fair price. University canteens should reasonably control food prices and strengthen food safety supervision. At the same time, the government and consumers should also strengthen supervision and self-protection awareness, so as to promote food safety and price justice and protect the legitimate rights and interests of the broad masses of people.
