Q: Trans fat, sugar, and preservatives in China

In the USA, the cheapest foods are the most unhealthy, typically containing a lot of trans fat, sugar, and preservatives (I have heard rumors that the situation might be different in California and Colorado, but that is neither here nor there). Is the situation the same in the PRC? Do the cheapest foods in China contain high levels of fat, sugar, and preservatives?

Thanks.

There have been many cases recently where worse things than high levels of fat, sugar and preservatives were added just for the sake of higher profits, without one ounce of regard for the health of consumers.  Candy, cookies, milk, etc.

A lot of things are too oily for me to eat, sugar and msg are used. I find many things that I buy to be below the quality of our cheapest brands. I bought butter at Walmart and Jiaianxa Square, both were margarine and the Walmart 26Y butter-marg stunk and I tossed it.

A:Good question!  I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
