The Shanghai Food and Drug Administration last night ordered a food processing plant in Jiading District – a supplier to fast food giants like McDonald's and KFC – to suspend production following allegations it used out-of-date and substandard meat.
Officials from the agency raided the Husi Food factory about 9 pm, shortly after the broadcast of a Shanghai Television evening newscast.
In the program, an undercover reporter posing as a worker at Husi used a hidden camera to film his "colleagues" mixing expired meat with fresh cuts and lying to inspectors from McDonald's.
在被指使用過(guò)期肉、劣質(zhì)肉加工后，上海食藥監(jiān)局昨晚下令這一位于嘉定區(qū)的食品加工企業(yè)中止生產(chǎn)。該企業(yè)是麥當(dāng)勞、肯德基等眾多快餐店巨頭的供應(yīng)商。
在上海電視臺(tái)晚新聞曝光福喜食品公司這一違規(guī)行為后不久，食藥監(jiān)局的工作人員即在晚上9點(diǎn)左右突擊檢查了其工廠。
在播出的節(jié)目中，一名偽裝成福喜食品工作人員的臥底記者使用隱蔽攝像頭，拍下了其“同事”將過(guò)期肉與新鮮肉混用，并向來(lái)自麥當(dāng)勞的檢察人員隱瞞事實(shí)的違規(guī)行為。

【注解】
文中的out-of-date就是“過(guò)期”的意思。對(duì)于食品來(lái)說(shuō)，保鮮期（shelf life）不同于保質(zhì)期（expiration date）。shelf life一般會(huì)用best by或best before（此日前食用最佳）標(biāo)出，超過(guò)shelf life的食品即為out-of-date food，不能再銷售。
但是，shelf life只是表示食品在該日期后新鮮度及質(zhì)量開始變差，expiration date則表示食品可能已經(jīng)變質(zhì)，不能再食用。
