Keep in mind that while many of these cases happened some years ago, China has made progress in stopping bad PR from going public. My suspicions are that many of the issues revealed in the videos continue to this day, like gutter oil, cardboard food, human hair used in food (not to mention 'ToPoo'
, using leftover food from restaurant dishes to give to the next customer, toxic chemical additives used in food and manufacture of fake foods...
...and who knows what else. /s

Yum Brands Inc., which sells billions worth of KFC fried chicken and Pizza Hut slices in China each year, has fended off two poultry scandals in the nation only to run into a hot pot problem.
In May, diners at a Pudong hot pot restaurant found a suspiciously off-color patchwork of meat in their "deluxe lamb set," sold to them at half the market price of lamb. After inspecting meat samples, Shanghai public health investigators found that chicken, duck, and even rat and fox meat were being regularly labeled as lamb in major suppliers' freezers, and few packages showed expiration dates. By then, 11 tons of this meat had already been sold to well-known hot-pot chains such as Dai Mei, Tan, and Macao Doulao.
Contaminated lamb slices are made by compressing different cuts of meat with real lamb, then flavoring it with lamb fat.
