Among them, Nestle Coffee, which attracted much attention from the public, was exposed to have Gold Coffee.

On April 24, the reporter visited several large supermarkets and two department stores specializing in imported food in Shenyang. During the visit, the reporter learned that at present, Nestl é gold selection instant coffee is on sale in Shenyang supermarkets, indicating that the country of origin is Japan. The two department stores that specialize in imported food sell Nestl é gold coffee powder imported from Japan. Heinz and McVita foods, which are alleged to contain acrylamide, were not found in the stores visited by reporters.

A person in charge from Nestl é explained that at present, "Nestle Gold Coffee sold in China is imported from Japan, while British Gold Coffee should be locally produced."

In another large domestic supermarket chain on Youth Street, there is also gold coffee in the same package, which is basically produced in July 2011. And Nestle's other strains in the supermarket, such as the original flavor, milk flavor, extra thick, Zhenxian is basically produced in Dongguan, the price is generally lower than the gold line.

In a supermarket selling foreign food in a Hong Kong-funded mall on Youth Street, there is gold coffee powder packaged all over Japan, which is distributed by two trading companies in Dalian. The reporter consulted two dealers on the grounds of restocking, one of which did not tell whether to sell gold instant coffee on the grounds of "not remembering the name", while the other made it clear that it did not distribute this strain.
