The price of white pepper, a key ingredient in the traditional Cantonese dish Pig Stomach Chicken, has recently skyrocketed from 90 RMB per kilogram to a peak of 400 RMB, marking a 4.4-fold increase. Experts attribute this price surge to market speculation as real estate and stock trading become challenging in mainland China. The influx of hot money into the spice market has driven up pepper prices rapidly since mid-May. Additionally, black pepper prices have also increased from 110 RMB to 220 RMB per kilogram. Market speculators believe this surge is primarily man-made, with factors like inventory levels and weather conditions playing a part. Calls are being made for Chinese farmers to avoid blindly expanding cultivation to prevent a potential collapse in prices.

FTNN News Network, June 24, 2024, 6:46 AM - People's Party legislator Huang Kuo-Chang held a press conference on June 24 regarding the import of Japanese eggs by Superps, questioning the Ministry of Agriculture's inconsistent statements and a discrepancy of about 500 to 600 million eggs. The Ministry clarified that Huang's calculation error arose from comparing Japanese and Taiwanese crate specifications. The Ministry of Agriculture emphasized that the total weight and number of eggs provided in the data to legislators were consistent, with the discrepancy due to different crate specifications used. The Ministry also stated that it does not support private companies such as Superps being established for specialized egg imports, and investigations have been initiated to clarify the commercial relationship between Superps and Bright Harvest.
