It keeps what’s inside a mystery until yu pen it. There are usually tys in mystery bxes; but nw, fd has been added t the list.
Recently, the trend f “leftver mystery bxes” has becme ppular in many Chinese cities such as Beijing, Nanjing and Chengdu. Stres pack bxes full f unsld fd r fd nearing its expiratin date at lw prices.
“We make the leftver mystery bxes available t buy at the end f the day,” Wu Tian, a staff member at a cnvenience chain stre in Beijing, tld China Daily. The fd, such as milk, bread and sandwiches, is sld at abut half the riginal price and is usually sld ut quickly. Many bakeries have als jined the “mystery bx club”.
Due t their lw price, leftver mystery bxes “are very prmising as a new business mde” and can attract mre cnsumers, Hng Yng, an expert at the Ministry f Cmmerce, tld China Daily. “In additin, they fllw the cncept f zer-waste and envirnmental prtectin.”
In 2021, the ttal amunt f fd waste in China reached 160 millin tns, with an average f 93 grams per meal per persn, China Fd Newspaper reprted.

If a cnsumer unpacks a mystery bx and discvers that the fd tastes bad r has already passed the last date, then it will be difficult fr them t prtect their rights, such as getting mney back.
Only by cnsidering bth fd safety and cnsumer rights can mystery blind bxes achieve a win-win situatin fr bth buyers and sellers, cmmented China Yuth Daily.

B. Because custmers’ rights are hard t prtect.
C. Because the prductin dates are nt clear enugh.
