CONSUMER RIGHTS CENTER SAYS DANGEROUS TO BUY
WATERMELON
Abgar Yeghoyan, head of Consumer Rights Center (CRC),
referred to a government session, saying, `No goods
will be sold without an Armenian label starting from
July 1, next year.' Yeghoyan said goods are in
unbearable hygienic conditions when sold outdoors
under such hot weather. He supported his words with
the findings of a food security monitoring, conducted
by CRC, and the inspections conducted by the state
epidemiological service. The epidemiological service
conducted an inspection of 57 juice sold in the
streets of Yerevan and discovered high proportion of
intestine bacillus in 35 percent of the juice. In some
cases, instant cups are used for the second time, he
claimed.
Yeghoyan said street trade is one of the unsolved
problems of Yerevan. He said local self-government
bodies are responsible to stop that. Yeghoyan warned
against buying watermelon and melon under such hot
weather, especially if they are sold on roads. He said
these fruits collect extra level of radiation in them
if left out under sun for a long time. /Panorama.am/
