The China Consumers Association encourages consumers to shoot "sky -high" moon cakes and report

There are only 2 biscuits after the 3 -layer packaging is opened; a small flesh is loaded in 9 square boxes; only 60 ml of essence is placed in the large cosmetics gift box ... The phenomenon is intensifying, and the luxuriously packaged rice dumplings and moon cakes have also emerged endlessly. Near the Mid -Autumn Festival, the Consumer Association issued a consumer warning.

"This not only directly damages consumers' rights and interests, allows consumers to bear unnecessary expenses, but also causes many problems such as waste of resources and environmental pollution, which has attracted widespread concern in the society." The China Consumers Association said.

According to China Consumers, from the perspective of protecting consumers' rights and interests, merchants attracted the purchase of profits through excessive packaging, and some consumers obtained the "ritual sense" for some consumers to purchase over -packaged products. The interests of consumers were damaged and unnecessary expenditure was increased. For consumers, the huge and complicated packaging boxes can only be thrown away. Only "trapped in it" products have real use value. The cost of packaging is included in the price of the product, and it is eventually passed on to the consumer's head.

"If all businesses have increased their profits, the wind of over -packaging has intensified. Over time, only over -packaging products can be seen on the shelves. Consumers can only be forced to accept and eventually lose their own choice." CICC Calculating Costume Association pointed out.

From the perspective of the China Consumers Association, saving resources and protecting the environment is the responsibility of everyone. Through various and unrealistic "face projects", the so -called "ritual sense" is not only a symbol of civilization and advanced, but it is a vulgar and backward behavior. It should be jointly resisted by the whole society.

In order to save resources to protect the environment and protect consumer rights, on May 24, 2022, the Market Supervision Administration (National Standard Committee) approved the "Restricted Commodity Excessive Packaging Requirements Food and Cosmetics" (GB 23350-2021) National Standard No. 1 modification bill No. 1 (The following referred to as the "Standard"), the "Standard" regulations for moon cakes and rice dumplings will be implemented from August 15, 2022.

Among them, the "weight loss" of moon cake packaging is mainly reflected in four aspects. One is to limit the number of packaging layers, and the number of packaging layers of moon cakes is not more than three layers; the second is to compress the packaging gap to reduce unnecessary gaps in the packaging box to avoid "" The box is small "; the third is to reduce the packaging cost. For moon cakes with a sales price of more than 100 yuan, the proportion of packaging costs accounts for 15%from 20%to 15%. The proportion remains unchanged by 20%. At the same time, the packaging materials are required not to use precious metals and mahogany materials; the fourth is strict mixing requirements. Moon cakes should not be mixed with other products.

On the occasion of the Mid -Autumn Festival, the China Consumers Association stated that it is carrying out large -scale social supervision work, urging operators to strictly abide by the relevant provisions of the Standard, and carry out a moderate packaging, green low -carbon, civilized and healthy packaging design, focusing on moon cakes, focusing on moon cakes The quality of color, fragrance, taste, etc. work hard, and strive to make consumers spend money to buy benefits and spend money to buy satisfaction. The China Consumer Association also encourages consumers to actively participate in social supervision, and use the form of hand -to -hand to record excessive packaging and "sky -high" moon cakes that violate regulations and public order and customs.

At the same time, the China Consumers Association advocates consumers to practice green and low -carbon lifestyle when choosing moon cakes in the festival, pursue the concept of civilized and healthy life, actively choose packaging simple and moderate products, resist luxury and waste packaging products, abandon the false and false of the false and false. "Face Project", while celebrating traditional festivals, tasting traditional cuisine, sharing the family reunion traditional culture, inherits the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation and thrift, and jointly create a sustainable consumption environment for green, environmental protection and resources.
