On November 1, CCTV's Weekly Quality Report exposed the chaotic sales situation of sulfur-fumigated Angelica dahurica. During an undercover investigation, a merchant reminded the reporter that sulfur-free Angelica dahurica should be used for personal consumption, stating that sulfur-fumigated ones are "a bit bad for human consumption," but when discussing processed spiced dishes for sale, the merchant recommended sulfur-fumigated Angelica dahurica, saying it is "more fragrant."
