Review of the “Hex Technology” troupe.
“Hex Technology” became popular on the Internet, and self-media bloggers used short videos of extras mixing soy sauce to cause speculation. Some short videos used this as a “traffic password” to create rumors like “soy sauce carcinogens”, and pointed directly to Haitian soy sauce.
In response, on September 30, Haitian Flavor issued a statement on its official Weibo, stating that the use and labeling of food additives in all Haitian products complies with relevant national standards and regulations. He also said that investigating and gathering evidence from some rumor reports will investigate the legal responsibility of rumors and distributors.

However, the statement did not completely dispel the suspicions, and some netizens broke the news that Haitian soy sauce products sold in China contained additives, and soy sauce sold abroad had zero additives. Through the comparison chart, the Haitian flavor industry was accused of “double standards”.
On October 4, Haitian Flavor issued a statement again to refute the “double standard” theory, saying that it is “misleading” to use food additives to think that Chinese food is inferior to foreign food. Food additives are widely used in food manufacturing in different countries, and enterprises use food additives legally and comply with national standards and product characteristics. “It is a misunderstanding to simply think that foreign products have few food additives, or that products with additives are not good.”
In addition, the Haitian Flavor Industry emphasized that domestic and international internal control standards are the same for products of the same quality.” Using ‘double standards’ to provoke contradictions between consumers and Chinese brand enterprises will not only harm people’s consumer confidence Chinese, but also seriously affecting the world reputation of ‘Made in China’.”

As early as in the statement on September 30, Haitian Flavor also noted that its products “not only include classic products such as golden standard soy sauce and straw mushroom dark soy that have been selling well for many years, but also tasty and cheap 0 additive series, organic soy sauce series, etc. Innovative products that satisfy different consumer preferences”.
According to the above statement, in fact, in various domestic sales channels, consumers can also buy 0 additive series and organic soy sauce series products. Many netizens mentioned Weibo Haitian Flavor, pointing out that it is biased to use different types of products to show that enterprises operate different standards at home and abroad. Haitian Flavor’s response to this storm is still timely, but it remains to be seen if the market will buy into these two announcements after National Day.
