HCMC - The Department of Food Safety of HCMC is contacting the owner of the L.C facility (a cigarette store) to invite him to work according to regulations, after checking on the spot.

On May 22, a representative of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Food Safety said that the unit is contacting the owner of the L.C facility (Tan Binh District) to invite him to work according to regulations, after conducting an on-site inspection previously. The reason was that the restaurant was closed.

In addition, the authorities could not take samples of cigarette butts when the shops in the city were out of stock. In the immediate future, the Department of Food Safety of Ho Chi Minh City will review and inspect other related products.

As reported by Lao Dong Newspaper, on May 7, the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Food Safety inspected the L.C restaurant selling cigarette butts. At the same time, the unit also simultaneously inspected many other cigarette advertising establishments in the city.

Previously, the story of the intestines of the pigs (a type of feod - the small intestine of the pigs) attracted the attention and debate of netizens. Accordingly, social networks spread a video about a 40m long, 5.8kg feast of pork belly at a restaurant.

This video later caused controversy about authenticity, many people thought it was just a trick to attract customers and suspected that this cigarette butter was pheped from the normal pig's intestines and soaked in harmful chemicals.
