WHAT IS ADULTERATED FOOD

A food is adulterated if it omits a valuable constituent or substitutes another substance, in whole or in part, for a valuable constituent (for instance, olive oil diluted with tea tree oil); conceals damage or inferiority in any manner (such as fresh fruit with food coloring on its surface to conceal defects); or any substance has been added to it or packed with it to increase its bulk or weight, reduce its quality or strength, or make it appear bigger or of greater value than it is (for example:)

-Scallops to which water has been added to make them heavier.

-A 70% ground beef was mixed with 30% / ground pork and the vendors declared it beef.

One of the unsafe product nowadays is oil, most cooking oil now are recycled -  meaning, used oil are refined, repacked labeled as commercial oil, this is due to the advancement of technology. Same to an ugly person ,they can make him or her beautiful faces because of technology, this might be true that food manufacturers of food chain are using that kind of oil.

Some chain of restaurants  have to fry their food using an oil supplied by thier suppliers. But unknowingly these suppliers using USED OIL COLLECTED FROM HOTELS AND RESTAURANTS. Refined and recycled this item as source of their raw material for manufacturing oil, recycled oil have been sold in the local market, (bote bote lang) without label, business is business, for as long as those businessmen can sale and get benefit out of this type of product , they don’t care...who are their target market and victim, Halal consumers ordinary households should aware of these products in the market.
