In recent years, because of the convenient and fast characteristics, prefabricated dishes have gradually entered the public's vision. However, there are also a lot of complaints about it. Recently, the Chinese Consumer Association released a complaint that was accepted in the first half of the year and found that a class of complaints in the forefront were: the prefabricated dishes were used in takeaway and food, but they did not inform customers. Do restaurants use prefabricated dishes, do they need to inform customers actively?

Regarding the issue of prefabricated dishes, the reporter conducted an interview in Guangzhou. Many citizens said that the "pot qi" that is currently eating is the taste that the restaurant should have.

At present, the proportion of prefabricated dishes in Guangzhou chain catering has reached more than 80%.

In this regard, the China Consumers Association stated that the prefabricated dishes are not detailed, and the prefabricated dishes are not notified in takeaway and eating. Consumers' right to know and the right to choose.

Lawyer Chen Qiandan: At present, there is no clear legal provision in law. Limited catering companies must clearly inform consumers whether they have used pre -product dishes, but from the perspective of consumers' right to know, as consumption If you can know the relevant information of this food more, it can indeed protect consumers' right to know more.
