Recently, 5D Survey found on the social platform that some consumers reported that Weilong Konjak Fresh, which weighs 15 grams per package, was clearly marked on the package, but the weight was insufficient when weighing.
According to the video, the consumers weighed two packages of Konjak Shuang respectively, and the actual weights were 12.6g and 8.9g, both of which failed to reach the weight indicated on the package, and the package was also included when weighing. In the face of consumer feedback, customer service personnel questioned and said: "You are not an ordinary consumer, right?"
On May 23, Wei Long responded and apologized to consumers. Wei Long said that product quality is the top priority. Weilong has actively contacted relevant consumers and properly solved the problem in accordance with relevant regulations. At the same time, it immediately carried out internal self inspection work such as product production and quality inspection.
It is worth noting that the 5D Survey found that Wei Long had released a weighing video of Konjak Shuang on the social platform as early as June 3, 2021. The video wrote, "Are you short of weight in Konjak Shuang?" and marked 18.4g net content of Konjak Shuang in each package of 18g.
Some netizens said in the comment area of this video that Wei Long shot himself three years ago, and others said that Wei Long hit himself in the face. At the same time, some netizens complained that the price of Wei Long's spicy strips is getting higher and higher, "I can't afford to eat them".
