市售素食食品標示符合性調查

Survey of Labeling Compliance of Commercial Vegetarian Foods

為有系統地瞭解並掌握國內市售素食食品攙葷之實際情況及維護民眾消費權益，106年度之「素食產品後市場監測計畫」持續針對市售素食食品進行檢測，並依據食藥署公告之動物性及植物五辛成分相關檢驗方法，分析樣品中攙雜之動物性成分及植物五辛成分（蔥、蒜、韭、蕎及洋蔥）。地方政府衛生局抽驗61件檢體，檢驗結果顯示共有4件包裝素食檢體（1件標示奶蛋素，惟檢出微量洋蔥成分，另3件為成分標示不符）判定為不符合規定，總計素食標示調查不合格比率為6.6％，由歷年市調結果不合格比率從25.2％降至近年4.1－6.6％，顯示違反素食食品標示規定的情況，經本調查持續監測結果已有明顯改善。上述不符合規定之檢體均已函復原送驗衛生局進行後續源頭追查及行政裁處，以保障國人權益。 In order to comprehensively investigate the potential adulteration of vegetarian foods with animal-derived ingredients, surveys had been conducting continuously in 2017. There were total 61 vegetarian food samples collected by local health authorities from vegetarian food retailers and traditional markets between March and September. Samples were tested using the real-time PCR detection methods published by TFDA. The results showed that 4 samples failed to comply with the labeling requirement (1 ＂ovo-lacto vegetarian＂ sample contained onion; 3 samples' ingredients were different than label claims). Among 61 samples in the investigation, 6.6% failed to comply with the labeling requirement. Referring to the results of vegetarian foods surveillance in the past years during 2004 to 2017, the non-compliance rate decreased gradually from 25.2% to around 4.1 - 6.6%. The circumstances of vegetarian foods incidents have made great improvement in the recent years. The results have been forwarded to the local health authorities as references for further corrective actions for the purpose of public health protection.
