A video secretly filmed at a market allegedly shows a vendor applying a chemical dye to fish in order to make it appear fresher than it actually is, sparking concern online about food safety practices in local markets.
The footage, recorded without the vendor’s knowledge, shows a reddish-orange substance being worked into the fish by hand inside a black basin, with the vendor’s identity and the market’s exact location undisclosed.
The clip has stirred unease among viewers, many of whom have raised questions about how widespread such practices might be and how consumers can protect themselves when buying fish.
As with similar viral food-safety videos in the past, the specific circumstances behind the clip, including where it was filmed and what substance was allegedly used, have not been confirmed.
