First, understand the special properties of donkey meat, really master the method of distinguishing between true and false donkey meat, and let yourself really buy good meat at ease.

Horses, mules and donkeys are very similar animals, but the characteristics of donkeys are not as good as horses. So donkeys are generally smaller, so raw donkey meat is generally tender, with less bones and more meat. Generally speaking, donkey meat has no taste, and other meats have their own special tastes, so donkey meat has no special taste, which is one of the ways to distinguish it from other similar meats.

Second, look at the price. The cost per catty of cooked donkey meat is close to that of 60 yuan, and the price is similar to this. Don't buy it.

Third, anyone who sells donkey meat with skin basically shows that it is fake. As I said before, the price of donkey skin is twice that of donkey meat. Who wants to sell meat and eat it? !

Identification method:

(1) packaging. Many donkey meat bought through formal channels will be labeled with QR codes on the outer packaging, and some merchants use holographic QR codes to combine laser holographic technology with information technology. Different from the common logo, the holographic two-dimensional code logo produced by the image of South China University of Technology is printed with the two-dimensional code pattern containing relevant information, which can make the product realize "one object and one code", and then supervise and control the whole life cycle of product production, manufacturing environment, logistics and transportation, terminal sales, etc. In addition, the holographic QR code has the function of transmitting information, which builds a bridge between consumers and enterprises and can enhance the stickiness between products and consumers.

(2) Meat quality. The meat quality of donkey meat is exquisite, which proves that its meat fiber is exquisite; Horse meat and mule meat are "old" in taste and thick in fiber.

(3) taste. After the donkey meat is fried, it smells almost nothing special, and the connective tissue is relatively transparent. If it is lean meat, the fiber is loose after cooking. Horse meat and mule meat are thick in fiber, deep red and low in fat. When cooked, they have a sour taste.

(4) color. The color of fresh donkey meat is reddish brown. Compared with the deep red of horse meat and mule, donkey meat looks lighter in color.
