Opinion: Mouse Head Found in Meal Sparks Debate About Systemic Lies

On June 1, a student from Jiangxi Vocational and Technical College of Industry discovered what appeared to be a mouse head in their cafeteria meal. Captured on video by the student, the incident quickly attracted public attention after circulating online. However, the school and local market supervision department’s attempt to quell public sentiment by claiming the “foreign object” found was a duck neck, along with the claim that the student had provided a written clarification agreeing with their conclusion, led to a resurgence of online skepticism, with many doubting the credibility of this determination.
