Mutton powder is one of the favorite foods of Zunyi people, and it has won the titles of "Chinese famous snacks", "Southwest cuisine" and "List of local intangible cultural heritage".
Mutton powder has become an indispensable hometown food for almost all Zunyi people, but there is always a saying that black-hearted businessmen don't work hard on the quality of food and want to improve the taste of food through illegal means to achieve the purpose of making money, especially that putting poppies in mutton soup will make mutton soup extremely delicious.
Recently, a mutton powder owner in a town of Panzhou City was prosecuted by the procuratorate for adding poppy powder to mutton powder soup. In the end, the Panzhou People's Court ruled that the defendant Wang paid ten times the compensation according to law, and publicly apologized in the media.

The court declared:
The People's Procuratorate of Panzhou City believes that Wang Mouqing has seriously undermined the food safety management order and harmed the public interest, and filed a criminal incidental civil public interest lawsuit with the court according to law:
Knowing that poppy is toxic and harmful as a non-food raw material, it is still added to mutton soup, and mutton powder is sold to unspecified consumers, which harms consumers' life and health rights and interests and harms social public interests. Its behavior violated the provisions of Item 1 of Article 34 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Food Safety Law.
According to article 148 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Food Safety Law, Wang Mouqing can be required to pay compensation of 10 times the sales price. According to the provisions of Article 179 of General Principles of Civil Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) and Article 15 of Tort Liability Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), Wang Mouqing should bear the civil liability of apologizing.
