A hotel employee in Chongqing was photographed scooping waste oil from a trash can. What is the response of the State Administration of Market Supervision?

Speaking of gutter oil, I believe many people will smell it. Once upon a time, the appearance of gutter oil did great harm to the health and safety of the public. In recent years, with the state's investigation and the most severe punishment of waste oil, waste oil has almost disappeared.

Recently, the video of a hotel employee scooping out gutter oil from the trash can in Chongqing has also attracted the attention and heated discussion of many netizens. Many netizens also suspect that hotel employees are not recycling waste oil directly for catering, which has aroused everyone's concern and suspicion.

As can be seen from the online video, two women in hotel clothes are standing next to two big green trash cans. One of them scooped out the residual liquid in the trash can with a small spoon and poured it into a big bowl. When the residual liquid in the big bowl is full, pour it into a filter, and finally pour the grease into a metal basin.

Such a series of operations by female hotel employees may make people wonder whether this is exactly the same as recycling residual oil from waste oil. It is reported that the two women in the video are employees of Jinze Hotel in Changshou District, Chongqing. This practice also makes everyone wonder whether it is recycling waste oil for hotel catering.

With the exposure of the incident, it also caused a huge public opinion response on the Internet and attracted the attention of all parties. The hotel also responded to this, claiming that this is the personal behavior of the hotel staff and has nothing to do with the hotel. The local market supervision department also investigated and dealt with this. Finally, it was learned that the filtered oil scooped out by the hotel staff was handed over to a local sanitation service company for treatment, and then transferred to a kitchen waste treatment plant to produce biodiesel. The behavior of treating kitchen waste was reasonable and legal. However, the separation of oil and fat by hotel employees in public places has caused adverse effects in society, and its management is irregular, so it has also been criticized and educated.
