The fresh takeaway sushi, which has always been known for its cheap and affordable food, is a hot-selling product that sells only 3 pieces of salmon sushi. It is understood that the fresh takeaway store has recently stopped selling single-package salmon sushi, and launched a 3-pack salmon sushi lunch box, which is priced at HK$12. The rest of the bulk sushi remains at HK$3 per piece.
The salmon sushi sold by Zhengxian has sparked controversy in the past when it was accused of selling rainbow trout as salmon.

Zheng Xian has issued a statement in the past, saying that rainbow trout salmon is only for short-term sales and is no longer available for sale. At present, Zhengxian points out on its company website that it has been using fresh Norwegian salmon to Hong Kong by air, which has been certified by authoritative scientific research and data to be free of parasites and can be safely used as sushi and sashimi. It is exempted from the freezing requirement by the European Union. It does not need to be frozen during export. It is airlifted from the origin to Hong Kong to maintain its deliciousness and nutrition.
