Vegetables and fruits are consumed throughout the year, but this story repeats itself in spring and summer, when seasonal products appear on the local and foreign markets. Why does this story not happen in winter when the prices of imported fruits and vegetables increase several times? Few Mediterranean countries like Albania have the luxury of an abundance of fruits and vegetables with a unique taste and at a price up to several times lower compared to other countries (see on the Internet). In the domestic market, there are also imported products, they are more beautiful and more expensive. But they are not insulted and slandered, while it is certain that the use of chemicals in the countries of the region and the EU is higher than in Albania.
The situation reminds me of the effect that in France and other Cambodia Telegram Number Data EU countries the media had on the public in the "mad cow" case in 1997. For several months, the consumption of beef was largely abandoned for fear that people did not want to have the terrible fate of the mentally ill that they watched every day on the screens. The crisis (fear of steak) reached European proportions, the media reflected, but it took a long time to convince the consumer that the panic had been unjustified, while the financial damages were colossal. Currently, the British media presents studies and predicts the expected effects on people's health (increased heart and blood vessel diseases) due to the increase in the price and decrease in the consumption of fruits and vegetables after leaving the EU. In cases where an illness appears, even the flu, people keep their eyes and ears to the doctors and do very well.
The media invite doctors and experts to communicate with people and they do very well. To judge the quality of fruits and vegetables, the matter changes. All display their abilities and prophecy. It is enough for someone to stop on the side of the road where fruits and vegetables are sold, take out a knife, cut a fruit and comment: there are deformities, nitrites, nitrates, hormones, poison and the fantasy continues. These persons, whoever they are, intentionally or unintentionally "infect and pollute" public opinion. If we refer to scientific rules and principles, in this case i) the origin of the product is not proven, (ii) the sample is not representative and (iii) the level of health risk is not proven.
