There are calls for a Kinder chocolate bar to be recalled, following the discovery that it contained traces of a possible cancer-causing oil.
因含有可能致癌的矿物油成分，健达巧克力已经被呼吁召回。
Germany's Foodwatch found the Kinder Reigel contained mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbons (MOAH), which the European Food Safety Agency has said 'may be carcinogenic'. It has led to calls for the bar, available in some Aldi stores in Germany, to be recalled.
德国食品监察组织Foodwatch发现，健达巧克力条中含有芳香烃矿物油成分，欧洲食品安全署认为该物质“可能致癌”。这会导致在德国阿尔迪连锁超市里出售的该产品被召回。
'You can't see it, you can't taste it, but it's in there. We recommend not purchasing these products because the levels are simply unacceptable for consumption.' Johannes Heeg, a Foodwatch campaigner told The Local.
Foodwatch的领导人约翰尼斯·希科在接受《Local》采访时表示：“你看不见它，也尝不出来，但是这种物质就是存在。我们不建议消费者购买这些食品，因为供消费的食品里含有矿物油是不可接受的。”
Foodwatch also found MOAH in two other German products, Lindt's Fioretto Nougat Minis and Sun Rice Classic Schokohappen.
此外，Foodwatch还在另外两款德国产品里发现了芳香烃，分别是瑞士莲菲奥莱多牛轧糖及Schokohappen经典阳光大米。
However, other groups have said the risk is minimal. The Association of the German Confectionary Agency (BDSI) said there was no need to recall the products as the amounts of MOAH found could 'be consumed without concern'.
但是，其他组织认为风险并不大。德国糖果协会表示，没有必要召回产品，因为现在检测到的矿物油芳香烃含量可以被人体完全无害地分解掉。
The European Food Safety Agency says 'foodborne MOAH with three or more, non- or simple-alkylated, aromatic rings may be mutagenic and carcinogenic, and therefore of potential concern'.
欧洲食品安全署则表示：“食品中的矿物油如果含有三个或三个以上无烷基或简单烷基的芳香环，则可能具有突变性和致癌性，因此会成为潜在的问题。”
A spokesperson for Ferrero said in a written statement, 'The discussion about mineral oil components (MOSH/MOAH) in foods is not new and affects a large variety of foods from the most different categories. Foodwatch Germany has recently tested several confectionery products and detected traces of mineral oil components. However, traces of mineral oil exist nearly everywhere in the environment and they can be transferred to food in many different ways. At Ferrero, together with all our supply chain partners, we are working on technical solutions to minimise these omnipresent substances as much as possible and to avoid transfer and migration to food.'
一名费列罗的发言人在一份书面声明中写道，“关于食品中矿物油成分的讨论不是最近才有的，这影响了不同种类的许许多多食物。德国Foodwatch组织最近检测了几种糖果产品，检测出了矿物油成分。然而，环境里几乎到处都有环境矿物油，并可以用不同的方式转移到食物中。例如，矿物油主要是从印刷油墨转移到包装回收循环中，并通过再生纤维转移到原料和食品中。我们费列罗将和所有的供应链伙伴合作，寻找技术解决方案，尽量把这些无所不在的物质转移到食物中的可能减到最低。”
