This?

This "Stop Waste" convention is unreasonable. I don't think it's reasonable, but on the surface, it's promoting the idea of "stopping waste". It's not a good idea. But in reality it is a "price hike". The price of the food has gone up in disguise. The reason is that while the menu is specified, it is also stipulated that the price should not be less than $588 per table. This is a price increase in disguise.

Tongjiang County, Sichuan Province, the "Tongjiang County catering industry to stop waste self-discipline convention", in the fourth article stipulates the ? 2 tables and more banquets: catering service units adhere to the implementation of the standard of no more than 18 dishes per table, the price of not less than 588 yuan.

Many netizens said that this is actually a price increase in disguise, the main purpose is to ensure the profits of the merchants, because after the epidemic, pork and some of the main ingredients rose substantially in price, and they are in order to ensure that the profits of the merchants, but also in order to prevent the merchants to kill each other, so that there is a provision for this price.

We all know how to set a banquet charges or to be linked to the local level of consumption, Tongjiang County, Sichuan, in fact, the level of consumption is not high, generally more than 10 tables of banquets, in fact, 500 yuan or so can be dealt with, but also comes with free booze, and even the customer can still bargain with the business. And the number of dishes at a table is also between 22 - 26, this time the regulations are limited to the number of dishes, there is the meaning of saving.

But with the limit on the number of dishes, the price has gone up, isn't this a price hike in disguise?

The same are 18 dishes, in the past even not to 500 yuan, but this rule out, 18 dishes is 588 yuan, in fact, the price of individual dishes went up, the number of reduced, but the total price rose.

And when this regulation came out, the restaurant association and the local commerce bureau were shirking their responsibilities to each other, both saying they didn't set it up themselves, which is very much over the top.

While this regulation was taken down by the official website on the next day, I think it is still very unreasonable, this regulation is only considering the profits of the merchants and guaranteeing their income, but it is detrimental to the rights and interests of consumers.

This kind of initiative, I think it is very unreasonable.
