百事可乐被指在加州以外地区仍使用致癌色素
<p>美国环境健康中心周三发布的一份报告称，百事可乐在加州以外地区的产品中仍在使用含鼠类致癌物质的焦糖色素。百事可乐回应称，美国其他地区的配方修订工作将于214年2月完成。去年3月，可口可乐和百事可乐均被查出在产品中使用含有会让鼠类致癌物质的焦糖色素，事后双方均表示会更换色素配方，不再使用这种名为有4-甲基咪唑的化学物质。今年3月，该中心对可口可乐和百事可乐在加州和其他十个州的产品进行检测，发现双方在加州的产品中均不含该物质；在其他州购买的10份可口可乐饮料中，有9份不含4-<span word="MEI">MEI</span>，或含量微乎其微；而10份百事可乐中均含有该物质。不过，美国食品和药品管理局去年曾表示，一个人每天要喝1000罐以上含有4-甲基咪唑的苏打饮料才会达到研究中所说的致癌级别。</p><p><span word="Pepsi">Pepsi</span>-<span word="Cola">Cola</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="still">still</span> <span word="using">using</span> <span word="caramel">caramel</span> <span word="coloring">coloring</span> <span word="containing">containing</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="chemical">chemical</span> <span word="linked">linked</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="cancer">cancer</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="rodents">rodents</span>, <span word="a">a</span> <span word="report">report</span> <span word="released">released</span> <span word="on">on</span> <span word="Wednesday">Wednesday</span> <span word="showed">showed</span>, <span word="more">more</span> <span word="than">than</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="year">year</span> <span word="after">after</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="beverage">beverage</span> <span word="maker">maker</span> <span word="promised">promised</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="phase">phase</span> <span word="it">it</span> <span word="out">out</span>.</p><p><span word="The">The</span> <span word="Center">Center</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="Environmental">Environmental</span> <span word="Health">Health</span> <span word="said">said</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="PepsiCo">PepsiCo</span> <span word="Inc">Inc</span>. <span word="lagged">lagged</span> <span word="its">its</span> <span word="rival">rival</span> <span word="Coca">Coca</span>-<span word="Cola">Cola</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="removing">removing</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="chemical">chemical</span>, <span word="called">called</span> 4-<span word="methylimidazole">methylimidazole</span>, <span word="or">or</span> 4-<span word="MI">MI</span>.</p><p><span word="Coke">Coke</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="Pepsi">Pepsi</span> <span word="said">said</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="March">March</span> 2017 <span word="that">that</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="would">would</span> <span word="make">make</span> <span word="changes">changes</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="production">production</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="caramel">caramel</span> <span word="coloring">coloring</span> <span word="used">used</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="namesake">namesake</span> <span word="colas">colas</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="avoid">avoid</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="need">need</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="label">label</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="packages">packages</span> <span word="with">with</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="cancer">cancer</span> <span word="warning">warning</span> <span word="following">following</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="California">California</span> <span word="ballot">ballot</span> <span word="initiative">initiative</span> <span word="aimed">aimed</span> <span word="at">at</span> <span word="limiting">limiting</span> <span word="people">people</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="exposure">exposure</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="toxic">toxic</span> <span word="chemicals">chemicals</span>.</p>
