据专家估计,目前我国每年返回餐桌的地沟油有200至300万吨。按照比例,你吃十顿饭,可能有一顿碰上的就是地沟油。而目前我们甚至还没有找到一种理想的检测和鉴别地沟油的手段。
那么充斥在我们生活中的地沟油用英语怎么说?其实,illegal cooking oil就是指“地沟油”,也称为swill-cooked dirty oil,指的是从kitchen waste(餐厨垃圾)中提炼出的油,含有大量有害毒性物质。使用illegal cooking oil已成为餐饮行业的open secret(公开的秘密)。
The "illegal cooking oil" is usually made from discarded kitchen waste that has been refined, the report said, adding that the oil, which contains a highly toxic and carcinogenic substance called "aflatoxin", can cause cancer.
