“Zombie Meat” Being Sold to Restaurants for 17RMB Per Ton

In the past few days, journalists have been uncovering details about a massive shipment of expired meat intercepted crossing the Chinese border. Most of the meat came from stockpiles of food prepared in case of war, with a large quantity coming from America. Because the meat has oxidized over time, it appears black and cannot be sold directly to consumers, but after being prepared by restaurants, it is difficult for consumers to tell the difference. Netizens had a lot to say about the meat, which sold for an average of 17 RMB per ton, with one jokingly commenting “Waiter, I’ll have a 1980 cut of beef, and an ’82 Coke.”
