继河北甲醛白菜事件后，甘肃榆中县再次曝出蔬菜安全问题。1中国部落客"大雷的食品科普日常"调查发现，菜农在蔬菜集散点使用禁用着色剂对嫩茎莴苣进行非法浸泡。1违规使用的着色剂包括"亮蓝"和"柠檬黄"，目的是遮掩蔬菜在采收存放过程中出现的发黄和表皮损伤。1
在榆中县定远镇、搭连镇等地的13个蔬菜仓库中，一半以上被发现存在违规浸泡行为。1当地部门对3家蔬菜仓库进行检测，其中2份溶液检出了违规着色剂。1专家表示，长期食用经过此类浸泡的蔬菜可能导致过敏等不良反应，甚至存在致癌风险。1榆中县农业局已对现场检获的违规萵苣进行封存销毁。1
A food safety incident has emerged in Yuzhong County, Gansu Province, where vegetable farmers and distributors have been illegally treating tender lettuce stems with prohibited colorants.1 The discovery follows a prior contamination case involving formaldehyde-treated cabbage in Hebei.1
Chinese food blogger "Da Lei's Food Science Daily" uncovered the practice on September 5th, revealing that farmers at vegetable distribution points in Dingyuan Town, Daqian Town, and 11 other locations within Yuzhong County have been soaking lettuce stems in banned dyes—specifically Brilliant Blue and Lemon Yellow—to conceal yellowing and surface damage that occurs during harvesting and storage.1 Testing of solutions from three vegetable warehouses detected the prohibited colorants in two samples, while inspections found that over half of the 13 warehouses examined exhibited such illegal soaking practices.1
Health experts have raised serious concerns about the practice. Liu Shaowei, a food safety specialist, warned that prolonged consumption of vegetables treated this way may trigger allergic reactions and potentially carry cancer risks.1 In response, Yuzhong County's Agricultural Bureau has announced that the affected lettuce stems have been sealed and destroyed.1
