"this white - bright bucket is likely to be a large number of fluorescent whitening agents," industry authorities told reporters that the material for making popcorn barrels must be "food grade white cardboard", and the state requires no use of waste paper and fluorescent brighteners. However, in order to reduce the cost, some manufacturers use recycled waste paper production, but also because the quality of pulp is not passed, but also to make the cup look white, a large number of fluorescent brighteners are added.

[b] government departments should strengthen the supervision of [/b]
[b].gt;.Gt; experts suggest [/b]
it is understood that since 2009, China has implemented market access system for food packaging, containers, tools and other products. However, why is the unlicensed paper barrel in the market still selling well in the two years since the production license of food products such as paper packaging, containers and other products were undocumented? "
" the fundamental reason is the local quality supervision department and the industrial and commercial departments of the supervision is not enough, "Dong Jinshi thinks, the quality supervision department should be active, do not wait for the product to look up a check. Enterprises that use unqualified raw and auxiliary materials for production should be punished more vigorously. Secondly, the industry and commerce department should strengthen supervision and control, and can not be soft on dealers who sell unqualified products.
