Food Poisoning at Chinese Preschool

A shocking incident has occurred in a kindergarten in Tianshui City, China. Over 200 children have been hospitalized due to lead poisoning caused by their school meals. The chefs at the Peixin Kindergarten used inedible paint to decorate food, resulting in dangerous levels of lead in the children's blood.

The police have arrested eight people, including the school principal, who instructed the kitchen staff to purchase the paint online. The lead levels in the food were found to be 2,000 times higher than the national safety limit. Parents are now extremely concerned about the long-term health effects on their children.

Local authorities have launched an investigation, and the mayor of Tianshui has acknowledged the need for improved food safety supervision. This incident has exposed serious flaws in the system, prompting a call for stricter regulations and monitoring of food preparation in schools.
