Acieed 1st Gear June 15, 2011 Share June 15, 2011 In SG they are usually called juice DRINK. It's not pure fruit juice. Only limited brands got natural fruit juice and priced about twice. most fruit juices are colouring + flavouring + sugar + preservatives. There are no real juices inside.

SimonTan 2nd Gear June 15, 2011 Share June 15, 2011 The packaging can legally claim to use 100% real fruit juice, nothing wrong with that. But the ratio is not stated. If the real fruit juice is only 5% of total volume, 95% water, coloring n sugar, still legal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camrysfa Turbocharged September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 hehe, been to Taiwan lately? They got gutter oil scarce . . . http://www.thestandard.com.hk/news_detail.asp?we_cat=11&art_id=149192&sid=42930964&con_type=3&d_str=20140905&fc=7 Friday, September 05, 2014 Police in Taiwan have smashed a racket in which gutter oil was sold to food factories which made a popular pineapple pastry. Five men and a woman were arrested in the raid in Kaohsiung. The gutter oil, which is a mixture of oil from drains, sewers and trash cans, was decanted into fresh bottles and mainly sold to eateries and bakeries in Kaohsiung and nearby districts. According to the police, the factory, which sold about 200 tonnes of the tainted oil, had been operating for over a year. Many food outlets and night markets in the island bought the oil because it was NT$10 (HK$2.58) cheaper than the usual market price. In general, pork oil is sold at NTS40 per kilogram but the "recycled oil" cost only NT$30 per kg. Changguan, a factory that specializes in processing cooking oil, is one of the alleged buyers of the gutter oil while products from its subsidiary, Chyuan-Toong, are widely sold in Taiwan. Police suspect food that contains pork oil produced by Chyuan-Toong may contain the tainted oil. Another factory, Jinn Uei, which specializes in making pig feed, is also alleged to have mixed the gutter oil into their products. According to Taiwan media ETTV, some oil storage barrels, many of them rusty and containing a yellowish oil, were found outside the busted factory. The work desk was covered with black oil stains while a white layer of an unknown substance was found on the surface of the oil in the barrels. Police had been investigating the case fo r six months before carrying out the raid on Monday. It was suspected the factory illegally collected rancid and sebum oils from a leather factory, and generated dirty cooking oil. Apart from those arrested, police also seized 17 oil storage tanks, 23 barrels of leather sebum oil, an oil truck and order invoices. It was estimated that at least 200 tonnes of gutter oil had been released into the city throughout the year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
