Trying before eating new dining policy in SW China
(CRI/Xinhua)
Updated: 2006-09-11 09:38
Teachers in southwest China will now start trying meal first before their students in an effort to make sure meals at school are safe to eat.
Beginning this semester, the new dining policy has already been adopted by more than 90% of schools in Chengdu city, capital of Sichuan Province, reports the Western Economic Daily.
According to the new policy, teachers will try dishes 30 minutes before their students every day. In addition, data will be recorded and samples will be kept in the schools' refrigerators for 48 hours. This is to ensure local authorities are able to handle the situation in case any other contaminations are found.
Chinese experts warned Sunday that foodborne diseases rather than chemical pollutants are the top menace to the food safety of Chinese consumers, Xinhua reports.
Official data showed that about an annual average of 300 million people in China would contract foodborne diseases.
Foodborne diseases often happened to group dining, especially at canteens for students or employees, restaurants and fast food outlets. Triggers are material contamination, food deterioration, improper storage and bad processing. |

Anything that knocks you out in 30 mins should be classed in the biological weapon category 
Potential China FT's please note - this article represents much of what you might expect of China!!! Food poisoning or teaching English - gut feeling is a very important thing in this job |

Hmmm. Interesting! What happens if all of the teachers get sick?
Why not make the cooks eat the food the are preparing. |

| The no-good slacker students should be made to sample it. If they get sick or die, no loss. |

To be fair, since it was the leaders who decided to implement this new regulation, THEY should sample the food first. |

this is amusing. the teachers get a hot meal!!! nice one
while the poor students get food that's going cold and thats more likely to contain germs....
a win-win situation, less students in class due to illness and a hot meal early in the morning |
