The U.S. House of Representatives has approved legislation requiring ByteDance's subsidiary, TikTok, to sell its U.S. business to an American company within 165 days.

The reporter searched for corn on an e-commerce platform and found that most of the corn was crushed for animal feed. The reporter immediately contacted the merchants, and the merchants replied, "Feeding corn is not recommended for human consumption, even if it is eaten with pickled vegetables."
The reporter then consulted experts, who said that corn is a coarse grain that is difficult to digest and contains phytic acid, which affects the absorption of minerals.

Doll machines may contain carcinogens? Investigation: 30 out of 55 dolls are unqualified#
In the "Storm Rising Amusement Park" in Dimei Shopping Center, the reporter counted the situation of the dolls in 55 doll machines: 21 machines had dolls without any labels, making it impossible to know their production information and 3C certification. Many of them were products that resembled or imitated well-known IPs. 9 machines had dolls with "qualified certificates" and other labels, but these "qualified certificates" did not have production information and only reminded consumers to remove accessories from the dolls when using them. The remaining 25 machines had dolls with complete production information labels or hangtags.
