Because the merchant could not prove that the cowboy bones bought by the consumer were imported from Russia, and the packaging method of thermal insulation bag + ice bag + foam box + carton was used for express delivery, which did not comply with the relevant national regulations, the cowboy bones involved in the case were judged to “not meet the food safety standards”. The court ruled that the merchant “refunds one and compensates ten”, and refunds the consumer contract price and compensation totaling 35860 yuan. (China consumer daily)
