Bubble Tea
In many places of the world, bubble tea is highly popular. Drinks containing tapioca pearls imported from China, on the other hand, should be avoided. Polychlorinated biphenyls were discovered in the pearls by German researchers in 2012. These compounds are harmful in a variety of ways. They have been linked to cancer and have been shown to have an impact on the neurological, reproductive, immunological, and endocrine systems. The pearls were produced at a chemical plant from used tires and leather shoe soles, according to an inquiry by a bubble tea business owner.
Shrimps
Gels are reported to be used in China to enhance the weight of shrimp and therefore boost profitability. While some gels are completely safe, others are chemically produced and utilized in the printing and furniture industries. They are high in heavy metals, such as lead and mercury. Isn’t there anything you’d like to feed your own family? Between January and October 2015, the US Federal Statistical Office estimates that about $ 150 million worth of shrimp was imported from China. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a warning in 2015 for seafood, particularly shrimp, imported from China.
