Kiwi fruit? Kiwi? The price difference is several times

“The kiwifruit produced abroad is called kiwi fruit and the domestic production is called kiwifruit. They are indistinguishable from each other. Are they really different?” On January 4, the citizen Mr. Zhu called a hotline and said that the kiwifruit that was inseparable was marked. Two different names, the price difference is very large.

On the morning of January 4, the reporter visited some supermarkets in the urban area. On the side of a supermarket fruit counter, there are two types of kiwifruit, priced at 9.6 yuan/kg and 25.6 yuan/kg, respectively, and the production areas are all in Shaanxi. Chinese kiwifruit is affixed with the Chinese label, which reads "the pollution-free fine fresh fruit Chinese kiwifruit." On the other side of the counter, there are two kinds of fruits that look similar to kiwifruit. The name is called “kiwifruit”. The price is 39.6 yuan/kg and 56 yuan/kg respectively. It is affixed with a foreign word label and is written with kiwi fruit. The English translation of the name "Kiwi fruit", the following is written "QIN REN GUO YE" of Pinyin; another kiwi on the label is written in New Zealand's English "New Zealand."

According to the reporter's observation, from the appearance point of view, there is no obvious difference between these types of fruit, but the appearance of the "kiwifruit" is less than that of the domestic kiwi, and the price is a few times different. "This is imported from New Zealand. Its nutritional value is higher than that of regular kiwifruit and its taste is good, so the price is high," the salesman told reporters.

The reporter then learned from the concept of two products on the Internet that China is the original center of kiwi and the origin of the world's kiwifruit is in China. In 1849, kiwifruit was introduced by foreign countries. Britain, the United States, and New Zealand were the earliest introduction countries. Kiwifruit has a variety of aliases, such as nectarine, white peach, and kiwifruit, and Kiwifruit is particularly kiwifruit produced in foreign countries.

A staff member from the food section of the Xingtai Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau told the reporter that there are relatively few fruits imported directly from abroad in this city, and they are generally purchased from Guangdong Shenzhen and other ports. Inbound fruits purchased from formal sources must obtain the inspection and quarantine permit issued by the inspection and quarantine agency at the port of entry for further circulation. Due to the complicated circulation in the fruit market, if there is pinyin written in the certain fruit industry, it is possible that the product itself is made domestically, but it has been labelled abroad.
