### Statement on Gutter Oil Dear viewers, Chinese street food no longer uses gutter oil. Chinese consumers don't want to experience gutter oil again. The 2011 gutter oil incident sparked immense outrage across China. While foreigners might find the incident disgusting, the victims-Chinese people-were extremely furious. Consequently, the punishment for using gutter oil in China is much harsher than for other food safety issues, often resulting in imprisonment. Additionally, due to the cultivation of genetically modified soybeans (which I know has its own issues), soybean oil has become very cheap, accounting for less than 5% of vendors' costs. Therefore, no one would risk jail time for such a small profit. I don't deny that there are food safety issues in China, and I am well aware of the severity of these problems. For instance, excessive pesticide residues, misuse of food additives, genetically modified foods, and the livestock industry heavily using antibiotics and hormones. But there really is no gutter oil anymore. I'm explaining this in detail because I truly don't want you to think that I'm eating gutter oil.😂😂😂
Thank you for the clarification. So much news is out there simply to sell news. As for me, breakfast is oatmeal simmered for 30 minutes with diced apple and a dash of cinnamon and a tablespoon of cream. eating healthy.
@@Heneggsboss 3 cups water to a boil, add 1 & 1/3 cup large flake oats, when water boils again reduce to minimum and simmer a further 20 minutes. Turn off heat let stand 5 minutes. So only simmer 20 minutes but 30 minutes total from when you add the oats.
China is totally different country with western country and with many intereting place worthy to visit. I very hope more foreigners can visit China and know China by themselves. Welcome to China.
Enjoyed watching this video, honestly presented and informative. This type of scenario is prevalent in Asian countries. Some viewers' comments are toxic and full of ignorance. A bit of jealousy, too. These people have not been to China and only read Western media which is extremely distorted and biased against China. Compared to western style processed food, the street food is way more healthier and natural. I suggest those anti-China people to go to Asia's "newly" most populated nation and witness the state of street food there.
Very thanks for your so friendly comments. I just uploaded vedio in recent months and I was so surprised by these comments. Too much misunderstanding and wrong information about China, and too much hostility. I will do my best to document the China life honestly by camera. Hopefully, the honest vedio can be more persuasive than lie.
And that shows your ignorance as well about that 'newly' most populated nation while complaining about others ignorance about second most populated nation. Some wonderful street food is available in that nation as well just like in china. Best not to peddle ignorance without first hand knowledge based on random videos picked up here and other social media gossip based on prejudice. Iam sure you don't want to discuss about the gutter oil stuff from china.
@@neilmanx1001He got you. Your reaction tell it all. Because he is only comparing breakfasts, relax. What about gutter oil, di you see for yourself or read about it at a AntiChina channels!? I know lots of people who travel to China, and not one witness such a thing. Nobody get food poisoning or get sick eating their food . But if your count the ocassional events that can happens in any city , then eat a any western restaurants is dangerous because the salmonella and food poisoning every day and some uses the oil more than the neccesary because it tasted in the food. Dont put isolates cases as a norm.
@@mariaaballi-gonzalez3716 well he mentioned about "Asia's "newly" most populated nation and state of street food" in that nation and bitching about toxic ignorance on china while at the same time displaying his ignorance about that nation so I gave an example on how other's perceive his nation.
It would be so nice if you could do a video on "naturally/accidentally" vegan options in these places!! Like I think the red bean buns would be, and thats so cool to see!! I really want to be there one day 🩷🙏 Thank you for your videos!!
I chanced upon your video here as i go on a "watching Chinese family eat" video spree! I am liking the videos you have in store, and i know i will enjoy them! Liked and subscribed~ Thank you for bringing the ways and life of the Chinese to us viewers. Can't wait to visit China!
I am so glad you can like my video. I will keep recording Chinese life and interesting things about China to the world. TH-cam seriously lack non-potical and positive topics about China, and I know there're many fake information about China spreading in the TH-cam. Thanks again. Your comment is very inspiring.
Thouroughly enjoyed your video thank you….but do not agree with the dumpling man smoking while handling food…sorry but that is just so wrong…I really enjoyed your lovely description of everything 😁😁 happy travels and stay safe…from UK 🇬🇧 😁😁
Enjoyed watching your interesting video. Chinese food is delicious, however some are too oily & salty. A great deal of improvements are still needed for better food practices like the way food is handled, prepared, the cleanliness & safe utensils used & neatness of the stalls and premises. Good pointers for the food handlers in wearing face masks. Keep that up!
Especially for Chinese breakfast, many are fry food. Also some Chinese don't like it. But majority, especially for workers, are accustomed to this oily food.
It’s always like that, but nowadays it is more expensive, moreover in Shanghai, Beijing (at least the first tier cities). I was there between 04 to 12. It was real cheap, I mean I can buy rou baozi (meat dumpling) with only 0.5 yuan. Real real cheap. Now the same baozi cost 1.5 yuan to 2 yuan so… but it is more affordable than in west. My country also quite cheap when you eat street food, I can buy something for $0.3 to $1.5 for a meal
The cost and the math doesn’t make sense.. someone doesn’t know math or conversion rates. The food is cheap, tasty and safe but you can’t get a sandwich for .5 cents USD. Or .2 cents or .6 cents. But once, 10 years ago I got 20 dumplings for $1 USD (in a USA restaurant I paid $1 each!)
I stayed in China in particular Chaoyan District for long time. I can survived in a 15 yuan daily breakfast, lunch and dinner with juice as well. That was before the 2008 Olympics. I heard this time all expensive due to inflation. To top it all I love Chinese foods. Prayers and God bless China and the Philippines 🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️💯🇵🇭
Thanks. Welcome to come China again. Indeed there's never that price any more in Beijing. I guess 15 yuan only can get one good breakfast in Beijing nowadays.😆
@4:28. That's the truth. My relatives in shanghai are upper middle class white collar intellectuals, and they echo the same pessimistic sentiment about the economy. They have it much easier than this street vendors. I really feel for them. Especially when they sell the same things that takes me back to when I was a little child in shanghai, when china was full of growth and hope. I used to beg my parents to give me 5分钱 (1.25 US cents) to go buy 韭菜大饼 or 甜大饼 at the street corner when I'm walking to elementary school. Too bad things have not all changed for the better, especially in the last 10 years.
Glad you explained the situation with food frod as of to day in china .those horror issues left me not wanting to eat in any place chin jad or buy products made or processed in china .good information and insightful vlog 😂👍🇦🇺
Thanks for your recognition. Before the gutter oil scandal was exposed, ordinary Chinese people were unaware that such a thing existed. It was precisely because no one knew about its existence that it could be used. Once it was reported and everyone knew about this disgusting substance, how could anyone still use gutter oil in front of consumers? No consumer would tolerate it.
In this video he talks about what Chinese people eat for breakfast and me personally I like to eat something very light,like PAO,dimsum,and congee,with Tea,and water,but nothing heavy, some hot sauce, as there are a lot of street food vendors in the morning, but Chinese food is very healthy, and good cheap eats, like a snack, except Chinese style and I prefer Chinese food over other Asian food, Japanese food is too expensive, and Korean food used to be affordable, not anymore, Thai is good but to light and it's gotten very expensive, so I make it at home but I light food in the summer months or fall, but my ma taught me how to cook for myself and kid's.
Chinese people are really clever. They have the most varieties of foods made palatable by good sense of taste and texture and sauces. No other civilizations or countries come close food and cultures. The Western food is limited and bland in general.
Do you ask that in USA or Europe? China has similar health standards to USA. Quit with the smears unless you have spent time in China and found some evidence of tainted oil.
Indeed. Our country don't have many environmental protection sense and government seldom advocate it. I don't know how long this situation can be improved.😅
You could not pay me to eat that crap, you have no idea what kind of ground meat that is and other ingredients they use. I have lived and worked in China, they will eat anything.
I also watch this channel that is not objective media and he always deliberately vilifies China, but I have to say almost things he said it's really ever happened in China even though he always exaggerate.
Billion’s of plastic bags, plastic gloves... All of them finishing where? In the rivers, the sea? If am right,that is India that banned them for rivers where literally covered with a layer of plastic residues.
@nogosari3596 Very thanks for your friendly reminder. Recently I am really a little annoyed by these vicious comments. Thank you again. Your comment is very helpful for me.🙏🙏🙏
You can say the thing about the Trump administration and two dozen other countries. China economy is suffering from economic sabotage the USA government putting on China because our leaders are to chickenshit to compete fairly

Thank you for clearing up that misunderstanding. I dont believe a word. This is China. Home of fake.
@@Lukiel666 how do you simmer oats for 30 mins? Is it more water or extremely low heat, perhaps?

The cost of living isnt as high as you think. China as a whole seems to be a very "medium" country.

Where does the oil come from.
Oil is very cheap now in China. No one would use gutter oil for very limit profit to take risk of prison sentence.
Do you ask that in USA or Europe?
China has similar health standards to USA.
Quit with the smears unless you have spent time in China and found some evidence of tainted oil.
Yummy I love chinese men
wow, the food is so cheap and look delciious
4:31 Vanity first then, Clothing and food are effected in a bad economy. If people can do it at home then those things r the first to suffer.
barf....Is the pork really pork? How many years old is the frying oil? How much MSG is in the sauces?

I believe that steamed products are safer than fried products. No one knows what oils or fats these street vendors use.
They cook in the front of you, you can see what oil they use. Very obvious difference between good and bad oil can be seen and smell.
There are too much wrong information and perception about China in the media. Pls think critically and never simply believe any media.
I bet that oil come from gutter.
Pig far ,lard
Fries.for breakfast ,that too probably in lard or pig fat ,pathetic rgds
the Chinese Street foods are not difference with Indian Money value
So much plastic waste. But the food looks delicious😊
Indeed. Our country don't have many environmental protection sense and government seldom advocate it. I don't know how long this situation can be improved.😅
It immediately turned me off, majorities are FRIED. Eeogh!
Sorry for that.
Much is dry fried, you can get some items like dumplings steamed and the deep fried is still less greasy than most USA bar food.
Do you have any prove about gutter oil etc. being used in the cooking!!!
You could not pay me to eat that crap, you have no idea what kind of ground meat that is and other ingredients they use. I have lived and worked in China, they will eat anything.
You are smoking right over the food. Not so good!
I don't smoke…
OILY foods for BREAKFAST ⁉︎ NO !!!
it has impact in their manners and conduct !!!
Sleepy Joe and Donald duck hate it while their mouth dropping with
I also always need to hold my mouth water, haha
Think about your health....stay away from those fried ones....you don’t know what kind of oil these sellers use😩
HOME COOK STILL THE BEST 😍😍😍
What kind of oil, I don’t know, but if you think it’s poison , don’t buy it.
Isn't medical advice these days to not eat too much deep fried food?
That's always been a medical advice.
Wont dare to eat those chinese food
oil, oil and oil. Do not like it
If don’t like oily food, you can try to see my latest vedio.😉
