The purchased food has expired and does not meet the food safety standards. Therefore, the operator should bear the responsibility of increasing compensation, and bear the civil liability of returning one to compensate for ten or three times. If the additional compensation amount is less than 1000 yuan, it is 1000 yuan. However, the labels and instructions of food have the defects of not affecting food safety and not misleading consumers.

What is the punishment standard for selling expired food?

1. For the food sold beyond the shelf life, the relevant competent departments shall, according to their respective responsibilities, confiscate the illegal income, the food illegally produced and sold, and the tools, equipment, raw materials and other items used for illegal production and sales;

2, the illegal production and operation of food value is less than ten thousand yuan, and impose a fine of two thousand yuan and fifty thousand yuan;

3, the value of more than ten thousand yuan, and impose a fine of more than five times the value of ten times;

4. If the circumstances are serious, the license shall be revoked;

5. If a consumer produces food that does not meet the food safety standards or sells food that he knows does not meet the food safety standards, he may ask the producer or seller to compensate for the losses and may ask him to pay ten times the price.
