Six common sense of organic vegetable identification

Since the exposure of organic vegetables in Shandong, organic vegetables have been questioned by consumers. The “organic dishes” that consumers buy at a large price are likely to be “excellent dishes” and “ecological dishes”, or they may not pass the country. Certification. To this end, China's first pesticide network specially invited experts from the pesticide association to introduce some common knowledge about the purchase of organic vegetables for counterfeiting:

First, do not overly superstitious organic vegetables. Organic vegetables are the development direction of the future vegetable consumption market, and this is certain. However, only the whole process of growing environment, cultivation management, etc. can reach organic standards, so that it can be called organic vegetables. Therefore, there are not many organic vegetables in the strict sense on the market. In fact, as long as vegetables are in line with national food safety standards, they can meet people's nutritional security needs. China has limited land and a large population. It is unrealistic to promote large-scale cultivation and consumption of organic vegetables.

Second, we must look for independent certification marks. According to the regulations, organic vegetables should be affixed with organic signs on the products, and the “Organic Product Certification Certificate” should be published on the counter or on the shelf, including information on certification time, plots, varieties, and yield. When purchasing organic vegetables, consumers should pay attention to whether the publicity content and the organic mark are consistent. At the same time, pay more attention to organic vegetables that obviously exceed the production season and production quantity. Because organic vegetables have high environmental requirements and are difficult to plant, it is impossible to supply them in large quantities.

Third, choose a regular supermarket to buy. The sources of vegetables in the general market vendors are often changing and unstable. If consumers don't know much about organic vegetables, it is recommended to go to a reputable regular supermarket or a professional organic food store to buy. And sometimes, supermarkets will be cheaper than organic food stores because of bulk purchases.

Fourth, "cucumbers and dates" are not necessarily organic vegetables. Among many consumers, the popular "sweet and cracked dates" is the experience of good fruits and vegetables. They think that it is best to pick vegetables with insects, or to look at the organics. Professionals tell us: This experience is very unreliable. When the fertilizer is applied to the late growth stage, the quality of the vegetables is reduced, and the insect bites are everywhere. The organic vegetables are not all sold poorly. It is small, with dark leaves and visible insect eyes. These are not the conditions for determining whether or not they are organic.

Fifth, organic vegetables should also be carefully cleaned. Most of the organic vegetables currently on the market are finely packaged. Many consumers believe that organic vegetables do not need to be carefully cleaned without pesticides. In fact, no matter what vegetables, you must make more articles on washing vegetables. Although organic vegetables are not used with fertilizers and pesticides during planting, there is no need to worry about pesticide residues, but the eggs and parasites attached to the surface need to be cleaned. Wash the vegetables one by one under the faucet and wash them by hand. If it is a coarse vegetable, such as kale, you can use an old toothbrush to gently scrub. You can easily remove hidden vegetable bugs by soaking the vegetables with water that adds a few drops of white vinegar.

6. The taste of organic vegetables is also better. Organic vegetables have no chemical residue, not only are they healthier to eat, but also taste better. Organic vegetables are crispy to eat, it gives you a feeling of freshness. Even after cooking, there is still a different feeling. This is not the refreshing feeling that ordinary vegetables can be made after being processed.
