    Supplier controversy over laotan sauerkraut; company issues two statements and seals products for testing

    After CCTV's 315 Gala exposed the use of earthen-pit sauerkraut in 2022, Uni-President China issued a statement addressing its historical and then-current relationship with the supplier involved, sealed the relevant sauerkraut packets, and arranged testing. It later clarified again that Cha Qi Food was not a supplier at the time. This is a supply-chain and disclosure controversy; it does not establish that all Uni-President instant noodles used the sauerkraut in question.
