"China Business Network comprehensive report" Recently, a survey by Greenpeace, an international environmental group, shows that Unilever's various bags of tea contain banned pesticides, of which the rodenticide is a highly toxic pesticide, and that sulfur, triclosan and biphenyl can affect male fertility and fetal health.  According to the China Web report, the results of the Green Peace Survey, Unilever China issued a statement, said the Dayton bag tea fully comply with China's national standards. Reporter investigation found that the Li-bag tea does conform to China's national standards, but China's tea residue restrictions are relatively small, in the registration of more than 600 kinds of pesticides, only less than 30 kinds of pesticides have for tea residue standards. In this test, the international Environmental protection organization Greenpeace based on the more stringent EU standards.  The "Dayton" market is all over the world, it is clear that such tea, if it is in Europe, is certainly not allowed to sell, the Lipton of these products to reach the EU requirements of the product sold to countless unsuspecting Chinese consumers, is clearly a loophole in Chinese law. "Dayton" has claimed to use only the state-approved pesticides, using the smallest amount of chemicals, but it turns out that these promises are bad checks.
