| Basic Facts | | 【基本案情】 |
Plaintiff Dongtai Branch of Yancheng City Aokang Food Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Aokang Company”) alleged that: On May 15, 2012, defendant Administrative Bureau of Industry and Commerce of Dongtai County-Level City of Yancheng City (hereinafter referred to as the “Administrative Bureau of Industry and Commerce of Dongtai City”) issued a Written Decision on Administrative Penalty (No. 00298 [2012], Administrative Bureau of Industry and Commerce, Dongtai) and determined that the Jinlongyu Olive Original Fragrance Blended Edible Oil sold by plaintiff failed to indicate the content of olive oil, which violated the provisions of the General Standard for Labeling of Packaged Food (GB7718-2004). Defendant ordered Aokang Company to make corrections and impose a total fine of 60,000 yuan on it. Plaintiff held that “Olive Original Fragrance” on the label of the Jinlongyu Olive Original Fragrance Blended Edible Oil distributed by plaintiff was an objective description of the physical property of the product other than emphasis on a certain ingredient. Therefore, it was unnecessary to indicate ingredients or volume of addition. Olive oil was a common edible oil ingredient, the same as other ingredients, including canola oil and soybean oil. It had no special effect or value and was not “a valuable or characteristic ingredient.” The national standard for food safety issued by the health administrative department of the State Council as prescribed in the Food Safety Law of the People's Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as the “Food Safety Law”) should apply to this case; however, the General Standard for Labeling of Prepackaged Food (GB7718-2004) defendant applied was not a national standard for food safety. Therefore, the application of law was erroneous. In conclusion, plaintiff requested the court to render a judgment to cancel the Written Decision on Administrative Penalty involved issued by defendant.
．．．．．． | | 原告盐城市奥康食品有限公司东台分公司（以下简称奥康公司）诉称：2012年5月15日，被告盐城市东台工商行政管理局（以下简称东台工商局）作出东工商案字[2012]第00298号《行政处罚决定书》，认定原告销售的金龙鱼橄榄原香食用调和油没有标明橄榄油的含量，违反了GB7718-2004《预包装食品标签通则》的规定，责令其改正，并处以合计60000元的罚没款。原告认为，其经营的金龙鱼橄榄原香食用调和油标签上的“橄榄原香”是对产品物理属性的客观描述，并非对某种配料的强调，不需要标明含量或者添加量。橄榄油是和其他配料菜籽油、大豆油相同的普通食用油配料，并无特殊功效或价值，不是“有价值、有特性的配料”。本案应适用《中华人民共和国食品安全法》（以下简称《食品安全法》）规定的国务院卫生行政部门颁布的食品安全国家标准，而被告适用的GB7718-2004《预包装食品标签通则》并不是食品安全国家标准，适用法律错误。综上，请求法院判决撤销被告对其作出的涉案行政处罚决定书。
