连日来，罗永浩和西贝就预制菜展开“论战”，事件引爆网络，相关话题频频冲上热搜。

A recent controversy has drawn widespread public attention to pre-made dishes in China, prompting calls for greater standardization and transparency in the industry. The debate began when celebrity entrepreneur Luo Yonghao, known for his outspoken views and livestreaming influence, took to social media site Sina Weibo to criticize the popular Xibei restaurant chain.

此前，罗永浩在北京中粮祥云小镇门店就餐后，在微博发帖表示“好久没吃西贝了，今天下飞机跟同事吃了一顿，发现几乎全都是预制菜，还那么贵，实在是太恶心了……” 。贴文引发网友热议。

Luo wrote that after a recent meal with colleagues, he found most dishes were pre-made and costly, calling the experience "disgusting" and urging the government to require restaurants to clearly indicate whenever pre-made dishes are used. The post quickly went viral, garnering millions of comments and sparking industry discussion.

被罗永浩质疑后，9月12日，西贝发布公开信称指责不实，并宣布向全社会开放西贝后厨参观，同时将陆续开放原产地、央厨工厂、草原牧场等西贝产地源头参观。

Xibei responded by emphasizing that the chain uses pre-preparation techniques but does not serve pre-made meals. The chain also opened its kitchens to media for a firsthand look at operations.

发信当天，多家媒体和消费者到西贝参观，过程中，西贝后厨被曝有多款提前预处理的食材。

However, the distinction between pre-made dishes and pre-preparation processes remained unclear, fueling further debate.

They undergo industrial pre-processing — such as mixing, marinating, forming, frying, baking, boiling or steaming — and may include seasoning packets. These products are intended to be consumed after heating or cooking and must be produced, stored,

transported and sold according to the conditions specified on their labels.
