The cost is 40 cents, at least sell 6 yuan, and make a net profit of 5 yuan per cup! There is no milk in the milk tea!
The main components of bubble tea are 13, including nine food additives, namely, non-dairy creamer, oral glucose, maltodextrin, fresh milk extract, aspartame, Arabic gum, ethyl maltol, CMC and charcoal coffee essence, accounting for 87% of the total components, and the rest 13% is white sugar, whole milk powder, coffee powder and black tea powder. Maybe many of the ingredients in it have never been heard by netizens. Even if I have heard of it, I don't know what it is, and I don't know if I can eat it. Bian Xiao consulted some experts and got the answer that the above ingredients are actually added to the bubble tea, which is harmless to people's health in theory and will not affect their health if they are eaten occasionally. Nondairy creamer is hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is widely used in food processing. Its main purpose is to reduce the amount of milk and increase the milk taste of food. However, eating too much cream is harmful to your health. Long-term consumption is more likely to induce arteriosclerosis and increase the risk of heart disease and cerebrovascular accident.
The biggest harm of bubble tea.
In fact, the biggest disadvantage of bubble tea is not milk tea, but pearl powder inside. Most people only know that cassava starch is the main raw material, but in fact, the elasticity of cassava starch is simply not that good. The normal method is to add wheat protein to it, but some unscrupulous manufacturers use synthetic polymer materials to obtain better elasticity in order to save costs, which has become a self-evident secret in the industry.
I don't think you want to drink when you see this, do you
"To make foam tea, it must be sodium cyclamate, or it will be sweet if you put more sugar." -A friend in the team said.
The scientific name of sodium cyclamate is sodium cyclamate, which is usually the sodium or calcium salt of cyclohexylsulfamic acid. The sweetness of "sodium cyclamate" is pure, and it is generally considered that the sweetness is 30 times that of sucrose. In the United States, it once became a large amount of artificial sweetener and was recognized as a safe substance. This situation continued until 1969. This year, the Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States received experimental evidence that sodium cyclamate is a carcinogen, and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) immediately issued strict restrictions on the use of sodium cyclamate, and issued a comprehensive ban on it in August 1970.
Soaking in a tea shop is even more worrying.
Narrow and dark supermarkets, ice cubes without safe sources, small workshops, do you dare to drink? Can health and safety be guaranteed?
Recently, a survey conducted by Hangzhou Quality Supervision and Monitoring Institute showed that the total number of Escherichia coli and colonies in randomly selected 10 tea samples exceeded the standard, with an average of more than 70 times, and the most exceeded was 140 times.
Bubble tea is the earliest American food in Taiwan Province Province. Its rich fragrance and smooth taste are deeply loved by men, women and children. It is pleasing to the eye to enjoy the pleasure brought by delicious food, but the bubble tea composed of creamer+essence+sweetener+plastic seriously threatens our health. There are many tea shops in the street, the advertisements are very attractive, and the real content is prohibitive. Food safety and hygiene issues can not be ignored, and their own health can not be ignored. It is best to drink less foam tea!
How much is inferior milk tea per cup?
The milky fragrance is overflowing, and the sweet Q beads-fragrant bubble tea-have become the favorite of many young people now. However, the quality of products sold by these beautifully decorated and clean-looking tea shops is shocking. Recently, a survey conducted by Hangzhou Quality Supervision and Monitoring Institute showed that the total number of Escherichia coli and colonies in randomly selected 10 tea samples exceeded the standard, with an average of more than 70 times, and the most exceeded was 140 times.
Milk tea producers collect money in one hand and make it in the other.
In the past two years, careful citizens will find that bubble tea shops with fashionable decoration have sprung up in the streets and alleys of Hangzhou. This kind of beverage, which originated in Taiwan Province Province, is deeply loved by young people and children because of its rich and varied tastes. In areas where young people and students are concentrated in Hang Cheng, you can always see bright signs of bubble tea shops. Only in the Jesus Church near Yintai, there are five or six similar shops within four or five hundred meters. According to relevant estimates, there are more than 1000 bubble tea shops in Hang Cheng. But what is the sanitary condition of these small shops? The reporter visited nearly 10 tea shops yesterday, and what he saw was disappointing.
In a tea shop near Yan 'an Road, the reporter saw that there were many transparent glass bottles under the high counter, which contained powders of various colors. There is no manufacturer, address and production date on the bottle. The reporter ordered a cup of bubble tea, and the clerk quickly poured a little powder from the glass bottle into the cup, filled it with syrup and milk tea, poured a little boiling water from the thermos bottle, added a spoonful of pearls and sealed it with a machine. Soon, he handed over the successfully made milk tea. When the reporter tasted it, bubble tea not only had no milk fragrance, but also had a little bitterness.
On Wensan Road, several bubble tea shops were opened in succession. The reporter found that some staff in the store did not wear professional work clothes or sanitary gloves, but hurriedly prepared drinks for the guests while collecting money. A young lady who bought a cup of bubble tea told reporters that she usually likes to drink this kind of drink, and seeing the fashion and neatness of the decoration of these tea shops, she felt that the hygiene should be reassuring. As for the production date and manufacturer of raw materials, she never cares.
Inferior milk tea costs 70 cents per cup.
The reporter found through inquiry that a cup of good quality bubble tea should be made of jasmine green tea or coffee, wheat fragrant black tea, sticky pink balls and creamer rich in plant protein. So, are the raw materials for making milk tea qualified? The reporter asked the owners of several tea shops, and the answers were basically similar: these shops basically adopted the nature of joining, and the raw materials were uniformly distributed by the company. After several inquiries, the reporter received a phone call from a raw material supplier of bubble tea.
Subsequently, the reporter pretended to want to join a tea shop and dialed the phone number of the supplier. A man who called himself Liu answered the phone. He told reporters that joining the tea shop is very profitable. With their products, a pack of cream from 18 yuan can make 80 cups, a pack of pearl powder from 3 yuan can make 30 cups, and a pack of1milk tea powder from 2 yuan can make 60 cups. Adding 0.65,438+0 yuan per cup, the cost of a cup of tea is about 0.7 yuan.
"The raw materials of authentic milk tea are quite high, and there is no profit at all. Cheap foam tea is different. If the market is good, you can sell 500- 1000 cups a day. How much can you earn? " The man surnamed Liu told reporters this way.
Milk tea additives may induce diseases.
A food hygiene expert told reporters that it is the non-dairy creamer that makes milk tea "smooth". Long-term intake of non-dairy creamer will increase the risk of coronary heart disease and induce diseases such as tumor and asthma. What makes milk tea "sweet" is sodium cyclamate. If it is not used according to the national regulations, it may cause damage to the liver and nervous system. In addition, the sanitary conditions of some tea shops are poor, and the raw materials and equipment are easily contaminated by bacteria. He suggested that the public buy them carefully.
It is understood that at present, there is no quality standard for ready-made drinks and foods like bubble tea in China, but relevant local standards are being formulated.
Shopkeeper: Milk tea is an editor made of additives. Yesterday, the reporter visited Hanzheng Street, tuanjie village Street, Qianjia Street and other wholesale places selling milk tea raw materials. In a shop specializing in selling additives in Qianjia Street, sweeteners, creamers, compound sweeteners and soybean milk additives can be seen everywhere. "The additives I have here are all formal, and the industry and commerce check them every month." When he learned that the reporter was going to open a tea shop, the boss immediately became enthusiastic. "I can mix all the milk tea you need here." On the list provided by the boss, the reporter saw that making a cup of ordinary milk tea generally requires food additives such as non-dairy creamer, oral glucose, maltodextrin, fresh milk essence, aspartame, Arabic gum, ethyl maltol, brilliant blue, acesulfame K, sodium benzoate, etc.
"Many tea shop owners buy goods from me and mix milk tea raw materials when they go back." The boss took out a box of 2 kg coconut milk cream, and quoted 19 yuan, 26 yuan, compound sweetener (including aspartame). "If you want to make milk tea with coconut milk, use these two." According to the boss, these two raw materials can be made into 100 Jin milk tea and hundreds of cups. With cups and water, the cost is about 60 cents. "The compound sweetener I have here is safer and sweeter than sweeteners, and it is better than the raw materials sold by others, and the price is not expensive."
When the reporter asked, if I blended casually, would there be a problem if the ratio was wrong? The boss smiled. "Milk tea is made of additives. A cup of milk tea contains more than ten kinds of additives. If there was a problem, it should have happened long ago. If you are afraid, use less. The quality of my products here is very good and there will be no problem. "
In another shop specializing in milk tea raw materials in Qianjia Street, the reporter saw that all kinds of milk tea raw materials were ready, such as concentrated fruit pulp, various milk tea powder, coconut, preserved fruit, creamer and pearls. According to the owner, the prices of various products are different due to different brands, such as concentrated fruit pulp. A bottle of "Black Forest" costs 18 yuan, which is more expensive than a bottle of "Wang Houwei" in 5 yuan (13 yuan), so a bottle of concentrated fruit pulp can take out about 50 cups of juice drinks.
