Since 2003, a list of top 10 junk food allegedly released by the World Health Organization has been widely circulated and quoted by Chinese media.
The increasingly health conscious Chinese public has been told to stay away from such food as sausages (red hot dogs), canned food and ice cream for the past 12 years.Well…until recently, when the WHO clarified to inquiring reporters that the organization has never made such a list.
2003年以来,一份名为“世卫组织公布的十大垃圾食品”的名单在国内广为流传。火腿、肥肉、罐头、冰淇淋等人们日常消费的食品均赫然在列。有记者近日向世卫组织求证,世卫组织明确辟谣,表示“世卫组织从未发布过垃圾食品的名单”。
What does the list say?
