宜家从23国家召回大肠菌超标蛋糕
Ikea has recalled thousands of cakes from its stores in 23 countries after Chinese authorities identified high levels of bacteria normally found in human and animal waste.

The furniture giant admitted on Tuesday that coliform bacteria had been found in two batches of almond cake from a supplier in Sweden.
这家家具行业巨头在星期二时承认有两批由一家瑞典供应商提供的杏仁蛋糕含有大肠菌。
It comes after Chinese customs officials announced that they had destroyed a batch of 1,800 cakes after finding it contained high levels of coliforms which failed to meet hygiene standards.
中国海关宣布已经销毁1800个蛋糕，因为发现这批蛋糕中含有大量超标大肠菌。
Coliforms, common bacteria which are found in faeces as well as soil and water, do not normally cause serious illness but are a sign of contamination which can indicate the presence of more harmful bacteria such as E.coli.
大肠菌是一种存在于粪便、土壤和水中的常见细菌，并不会导致严重疾病，但是标志着可能会存在更多有害污染，如大肠杆菌。
It comes after Ikea recalled meatballs and sausages from 24 countries due to fears they could have been contaminated with horse meat.

Ikea said batches of the cakes sold in all countries had been tested, but no evidence of contamination was found in those sold in the UK and Ireland.
宜家方面称已经检验过所有国家销售的不同批次的蛋糕，在英国和爱尔兰地区销售的蛋糕中并未发现受到污染。
The affected batches of almond cake with chocolate and butterscotch all came from the same Swedish supplier which exports to stores across the world, the retailer said.
这位零售商说：这批杏仁巧克力奶油蛋糕是同一家瑞典供应商提供的，他们向全世界多个国家和地区供应商品。
A spokesman said: "There is no health risk associated with consuming this product. The production batches have, as per safety and quality routines, been tested for bacteria that can cause health issues, such as E.coli, and none of these pathogen bacteria have been found.
宜家发言人称：“这批产品并不会引发健康风险，所有产品都已经经过严格的质量检测，以及大肠杆菌这些容易引发健康问题的细菌检测，并没有发现这类致命病菌。”
"However, since the product does not comply with our strict food quality standards we have decided to withdraw the concerned production batches from sale in the 23 affected countries. The UK and Ireland are not affected."
“当然，既然这批产品不符合我们严格的质量检测标准，我们决定从受影响的23个国家召回这批产品。英国和爱尔兰并未受到影响。”
