Husi Food Company is part of the American OSI-Group and supplied KFC, Mc Donald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut, Starbucks, Papa John's and Dicos. Not only in Shanghai, but also the rest of China and some stores in Japan.
About the health risks: Expired meat contains a high number of bacteria that causes diarrhoea and food poisining.
So, nothing new here :-DD
Still, meat that expired one year ago is kind of disgusting.
Sorry mate, but all the questions are already answered in other forum discussions. You just need to make an effort and use the search function.
@Marquerite
You are Chinese, right?
No results found.
havent been there in months, because I wasnt too impressed. but some friends and I thought we should give it a try again.
This was definitely the last time we went there... very unfriendly staff who dont pay any attention and the owner asking you whether you cant squeeze in the last slice of pizza when she cleared the table...
About the pizza, very oily and low quality products used for making it
Kunming launches first sightseeing bus
发布者@Alien: I was referring to fuel powered vehicles.
Kunming launches first sightseeing bus
发布者If I hadnt seen the bus today, one would think it's a joke. There is no need for a sight seeingbus. You need sights in order to have a sightseeing bus. Polluted lakes, construction sites, 'a village of tents' where builders sleep and the 2nd ring road are no sights. In cities like London and Paris it makes sense, because you can take photos of the Eiffel tower and Big Ben and so on. But here you cant see anything of the sights while sitting on the bus.
But this will only create more, definitely not needed, pollution when driving around all day long. I mean Higer is a Chinese brand. That means outdated, non environmental friendly technology. The red ribbon and the fancy colour dont help. The money the government spent on it could be better used for other things.
Kunming opens province's first 'baby refuge'
发布者@ Ocean: Just have a look on the Law of the People's Republic of China on Maternal and Infant Health Care, "Chapter II Pre-marital Health Care"
" Article 8 Pre-marital medical examination shall include the examination of the following diseases: genetic diseases of a serious nature; target infectious diseases; and relevant mental diseases."
It's not definite and leaves too much room for interpretation. So it can also apply for colour blind people, people with learning difficulties, people with big moles or large port-wine staines or any other kind of "diseases" that could be passed on the offspring. Doesnt matter whether it's actually from the medical point of view (Western standarts) hereditary or not.
And "Article 16 If a physician detects or suspects that a married couple in their child-bearing age suffer from genetic disease of a serious nature, the physician shall give them medical advice, according to which the said couple shall take corresponding measures." (abortion/sterilization)

Anyway, there are a lot of good reasons to leave the baby in the 'baby refuge'. Most of them doesnt have anything to do with whether you want to be a mother or not.
Kunming opens province's first 'baby refuge'
发布者It seems most people dont know anything about single mothers in China.
Here are two good article that sum it up:

On top, without marriage certificate technically you are not allowed to have children. They have to pay huge fines on an annual basis, the child doesnt get a hukou. It was even big on the news the other day. A mother in Hubei couldnt afford to pay the fines and the father was unwilling to marry her, so the 8 year old girl is still not able to go to school and so on.
Besides, the marriage law says:
"Article 6 No marriage may be contracted before the man has reached 22 years of age and the woman 20 years of age."
"Article 7 No marriage may be contracted under any of the following circumstances:
(2) if the man or the woman is suffering from any disease which is regarded by medical science as rending a person unfit for marriage."
Besides, the Chinese government offers a little financial bonus for every woman who gets sterilized after her 1st child.
