Hai Di Lao responds to the sale of "future dated" sesame paste: employee error

On June 16, it was reported by the media that a consumer complaint was received regarding the "Lao Pai Douhua Dry Mixed Spicy Hot Pot Set" purchased on June 9 by Hai Di Lao. The packaging of the Hai Di Lao peanut sesame seasoning sauce showed a packaging date of June 15, 2025, raising suspicions of purchasing "future date" food. In response, a Hai Di Lao staff member stated that on June 9, a customer in Taiyuan reported that the labeling date on the peanut sesame seasoning sauce package was incorrect in their takeout order from Hai Di Lao. After investigation by the local regulatory authorities, it was confirmed that the peanut sesame seasoning sauce was actually packaged on the same day, June 9, and that the product qualifications, storage, and shelf life all met requirements. The incorrect labeling date on the packaging was due to a mistake made by an employee operating the keyboard, affecting a total of 7 takeout orders.
