Safety of school food must be assured

ON TUESDAY, the Shanghai Municipal Food and Drug Administration confirmed in a statement that a private school in Zhangjiang Hi-Tech Park served their pupils expired food, including rotten and moldy products. Beijing News comments:

The tomatoes were rotten. The pork was labeled with a production date that had not yet arrived.

That's what parents of children attending SMIC Private School found in its canteen. In a conversation with the angry parents, the headmaster said: "I have promised to supervise. What else do you want?"
