"This chicken's foot is very yellow, buy this." "The pork here is very red, this is good." Such dialogue is often heard in the market. However, it was reported that people were surprised by the fact that the poultry fish are “very yellow and red†and it is very likely that they eat feed supplemented with chemical pigments, which is harmful to humans. According to a feed industry source, it has become an open secret in the industry to add "pigmentation" to chicken, duck, fish, shrimp, crab and Other aquaculture products through the addition of pigment to the feed.
Artificial pigment added to appear "banana fish"
Not long ago, a farmer in Shunde actually discovered that the yellow-bone fish in the pond turned into a golden “banana freakâ€, and in desperation, he could only raise it for another 3 months. "Even if we raise it for another 3 months, the color of the surface fades. The pigment in the body actually precipitated." Mr. Zeng said in the industry, the cause of this discoloration is due to the artificial pigment added to the feed. excessive.
Some consumers don’t buy chicken if they don’t have yellow feet. The more red the pork, the more they like it. Mr. Huang, head of Guanghong Feed, said that this is a misunderstanding. Very yellow chicken feet are likely to eat feed containing chemical yellow pigments, red pork is likely to eat a diet containing chemical red pigments or even hormones. Yellow chicken feet are sold on the market and yellow pigments are added to the feed. Adding hormones in the feed can make the pork grow brighter... This has long been an open secret in the industry.
It is reported that feed pigments are divided into two types. One is the natural pigments in the raw materials. For example, corn with a full grain golden surface contains naturally lutein, which does not need to be added. The other is an artificial pigment. Synthetic products, lower cost. Normally large enterprises are using pure natural pigments derived from raw materials. However, some informal small businesses and farmers often choose the latter one to reduce costs. Some even have their own mixed feeds, and some even add Prohibited items.
"Pigs, chickens, ducks, fish and other farmed products that are fed with 'additive' feeds are good for color, but ordinary consumers find it difficult to distinguish them. However, if artificial pigments are added too much, it would be harmful to humans." Mr. Zeng said.
