‘Check whether straws used to fry banana fritters’
SANDAKAN July 30, 2011: Sandakan Municipal Council (SMC) president Datuk James Wong has called on the Health Department to check whether drinking straws were used for frying banana fritters.
Wong made the call during the SMC monthly meeting on Thursday where he said that SMC had received complaints from consumers that drinking straws were allegedly used to mix with the cooking oil to make the banana fritters more crispy.
The Health Department officers present at the meeting urged the complainants to take sample of the banana fritters to their department for analysis.
They said a portion of a drinking straw was found fried with the banana in Kota Kinabalu recently.
A teacher brought a sample to the Health Department for further checking.

Isu tentang pisang goreng masak straw ini sudah lama. Memang harus dipantau. Peniaga yang berbuat demikian memang tidak bertanggungjawab langsung. Hanya pentingkan keuntungan tanpa mempedulikan kesan ke atas kesihatan pembelinya.
BalasPadammmg teruk mereka yang melakukan demikian. tidak memikirkan kesannya atas pengguna.
BalasPadamSudah pernah saya dengar pasal ini. Peniaga-peniaga seperti ini memang tidak beretika dan tidak bertanggungjawab. Kementerian kesihatan wajar membuat pemantauan.
BalasPadampetua dari mana pula ni? para pembeli harus berhati2 bila membeli pisang goreng manatau ia dicampurkan dengan straw.
BalasPadamharap perhatian akan diberikan terhadap pekara ini. pengguna juga perlu sentiasa berhati-hati.
BalasPadamIni memang sudah lama dibuat oleh sesetengah pihak. Tujuan utama adalah tepung pisang lebih ranggup.
BalasPadamPeniaga yang berbuat demikian patut disaman dan diambil tindakan terhadap lesen perniagaannya, jika ada.
BalasPadamThese people are trying to earn fast money. However it is not in a correct way. They should get fined or even jailed for doing this. I hope this will stop eventually.
BalasPadamOh my gosh, we all might be in the way to eating plastics. These people are immoral. This is not the way to do business, destroying people's health in this way.
BalasPadamThis is so shameful...
BalasPadamsaya puji masyarakat yang prihatin dan bertanggungjawab melaporkan aktiviti peniaga yang sengaja meracuni pelanggannya semata2 untuk mengaut keuntungan lebih.. saya juga akan buat laporan sekiranya saya sendiri menyaksikan perkara seumpama itu..
