## Direct Engineering & Procurement Summary
Launching a viscous botanical paste in traditional heavy glass jars creates three severe B2B bottlenecks: high breakage rates in e-commerce fulfillment, sticky unhygienic consumer spoon dipping, and $7,000+ (¥50,000) custom cap injection mold fees. YONG FOOD opens its proprietary 5-color Spoon-in-Lid Jar (integrated folding/snap spoon sealed inside a dual-deck dust-proof lid above an electromagnetic aluminum-foil induction liner) to OEM buyers with $0 mold fee from 1,000 units—cutting freight weight by 68% and eliminating transit breakage.

## Why Secondary Water Contamination Ruins Glass-Jar Herbal Pastes After Opening
Even when a botanical electuary is cooked to <code>Aw = 0.642</code>, consumers dipping a wet kitchen spoon into a standard jar introduce free water droplets (`Aw = 1.00`) onto the paste surface, triggering localized mold within 10 days. Our integrated dry-compartment spoon ensures consumers always scoop with a dedicated, clean, dry utensil.


## Frequently Asked B2B Questions
### Q: Can we mix two or more lid colors within a 1,000-jar OEM order to differentiate SKUs?
**A:** Yes. Because we hold all 5 lid colors (Red, Gold, Green, Black, White) in continuous warehouse stock, you can split a 1,000-jar order into two 500-jar colorways at zero surcharge.
