歐洲“馬肉門”
中國日報網(wǎng) 2013-02-17 08:52
歐洲“掛牛頭賣馬肉”風(fēng)波持續(xù)發(fā)酵,涉及愛爾蘭、英、法、德、羅馬尼亞等16個歐盟國家。歐盟多國政府不僅將涉嫌被“污染”肉類下架,還宣稱將對涉嫌企業(yè)和個人進(jìn)行嚴(yán)懲。
請看相關(guān)報道:
Under the EU plan announced on Friday, 2,250 processed beef samples will be tested across the EU, ranging from 10 to 150 per member state. The samples will come from foods on sale in retail outlets and marketed as containing beef. (Source: BBC)
歐盟本周五發(fā)布的計劃稱,將對整個地區(qū)內(nèi)的2250個加工牛肉樣品進(jìn)行檢測,平均每個成員國有10到150個樣品。這些樣品將從零售店中正在銷售、且標(biāo)簽中說明含有牛肉成分的食品中選取。
最近在歐盟各國備受關(guān)注的“馬肉門”事件(horsemeat scandal)說的是歐洲多個國家超市出售的processed beef foods(加工類牛肉食品)中含有馬肉成分,即大家所說的“掛牛頭賣馬肉”(horsemeat being sold as beef),涉及的食品多是ready-to-eat frozen meals(冷凍熟食)。
此次檢測結(jié)果將被錄入歐盟的食品安全快速預(yù)警系統(tǒng)(alert system for food safety)。法國一家企業(yè)因涉嫌故意將馬肉當(dāng)牛肉銷售(knowingly selling horsemeat as beef)而被吊銷許可證,英國也有三人因涉嫌在肉類銷售中有欺詐行為(fraud in meat sales)而被捕。
