Major Companies Admitted Adulterating Edible Oil

食品大廠承認 食用油摻假

Several major local edible oil producers were found guilty of blending cheaper cottonseed oil into higher-end cooking oils to increase profits. The companies fined for violating Taiwan’s Act Governing Food Sanitation include Chang Chi Foodstuff Factory Co., Flavor Full Foods, Formosa Oilseed Processing Co., and Wei Chuan Foods. At the heart of the scandal is Chang Chi, which is the main importer of crude cottonseed oil apart from Flavor Full Foods. It was also found to have used an illegal coloring agent to make its adulterated oil look like olive oil. Likewise, Flavor Full Foods had added flavoring agents to one of its peanut oil products. Taiwan’s health officials have fined Chang Chi NT$1.85 billion for false advertising and selling impure products.

中譯

數家本地主要的食用油製造業者，在較高檔的植物油中混入廉價的棉籽油來增加利潤因而被判罪。因違反台灣的食品衛生管理法而被罰款的公司包括大統長基、富味鄉食品、福懋油和味全食品。這樁醜聞的關鍵是大統長基，除了富味鄉食品之外，大統長基也是棉籽原油的主要進口商。大統長基也被發現使用非法著色劑來使假的油看起來像橄欖油。同樣地，富味鄉食品也在自家的一項花生油產品中添加香料。台灣的衛生官員因大統長基不實廣告和販售不純的產品，而重罰新台幣十八點五億元。
