A friend saw it when she was shopping for cooking materials in a supermarket, but she really couldn't understand the meaning of the sentence "It contains no genetically modified ingredients, but is made from genetically modified corn". Sometimes when I think about it, I really feel that Chinese is extensive and profound. I understand every word, but I don't understand it when I form a sentence. Since it is a product processed from genetically modified corn, how come it does not contain genetically modified ingredients? So put it in a professional Facebook discussion forum to see if anyone knows the meaning of this sentence.
When I first saw it, I was confused. When I was in google, I found that although the media had reported the basic reform, such as the labeling regulations for the change of raw material content, I believe many people knew it, and all the major media had keywords. But only the words written in the title are rarely reported by the media. So try to understand the meaning of this sign.
In 2115, Weifu Department decided that foods containing more than 3% genetically modified raw materials should be regarded as genetically modified foods, and relevant words should be marked on the packaging. Consumers will see the words "non-genetically modified" or "genetically modified" in processed foods such as soybeans and corn on the market.
this may be a message that many people know, but if it is the packaged text in the following picture, can consumers understand the meaning of this sentence?
This is a packet of corn flour that is often seen on food programs, and the price is 21 yuan. The characteristic is that it has coagulation function and is widely used. It is used in pudding, cake and pie filling color road running.
When you see the words "This product contains no genetically modified ingredients, but it is made from genetically modified corn" on the back of the product, no one who has lost the ability to judge Chinese at present … can only say that you are a good professional.
In fact, in 2115, when the regulation announced the adjustment of the labeling percentage of genetically modified ingredients, it also announced the following provisions:
The direct use of genetically modified food raw materials, after the final product no longer contains transgenic gene fragments or high-level processed products (such as soybean oil, soy sauce, corn syrup, etc.) transplanted in protein, was adjusted from label-free to one of the following: (1) "Genetic modification" and "genetically modified". (2) "This product is made by genetically modified ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ (3) "This product does not contain genetically modified ingredients, but it is made by genetically modified processing" or "This product does not contain genetically modified ingredients, but the processed raw materials contain genetically modified ingredients".
ok, no one will read the law word for word, even if they do, they don't know what to say. To put it simply, the genetically modified ingredients in the above text refer to genetically modified proteins or genetically modified DNA sequences, and the genetically modified raw materials can remove these protein after high-level processing, so although the products made of genetically modified raw materials do not contain genetically modified ingredients, manufacturers do not need to directly label "genetically modified" at this time according to law, and the stories written are so confusing that consumers can stand in the store and think about whether they can accept such products.
The Chinese expression may not be perfect, but it is a little too concise ... The key point is that consumers' relevant information should be synchronized, and they should study hard. You can never get the correct answer by forwarding messages from unknown sources.
