why was the data only available from 2002? is that the first time police/government officials began recording this fraud?
part of this growing joke feels like it stems from the over importance japanese consumers place on products being pure japanese, imagine the horror when you realise that those eels you thought were from pure japanese waters, caught by trustworthy hardy japanese fishermen and prepared by kimono wearing fish ladies but were actually from filty chinese waters, caught by dogdey russians and prepared by thai illegals
I can see it now...Officer 1: this mustard tastes like crap. Officer 2: Your right it does taste like crap. Officer 2: what is it? Officer 1: The label says "gray poopon" Officer 2: Let's get it tested.
Hello there. Tell me how many people died from food poisoning lately? Sure hygiene is important in food industry, but such stories will drive away people from eating outside their homes, and tourists will certainly think twice before beating in restaurant. Such matters should be kept away from MEDIA, unless death was caused. 'DID INSPECTORS FIND ANY CHINGLISH FOOD AGAIN?'

The Media focused most on the supossedly contaminated gyoza while the japanese cases were "mostly" mentioned in passing
