查爾斯王儲呼吁禁售麥當(dāng)勞快餐
[ 2007-02-28 13:52 ]

英國王儲查爾斯2月27日訪問阿拉伯聯(lián)合酋長國時(shí)呼吁禁止銷售麥當(dāng)勞快餐,稱這種做法是幫助人們實(shí)現(xiàn)健康飲食的一大關(guān)鍵。此言一出立即引發(fā)了廣泛爭議,麥當(dāng)勞公司的一名發(fā)言人回應(yīng)稱,“英國王儲的這番談話令人失望”, 他表示麥當(dāng)勞從去年開始已經(jīng)著手改善菜單,并在菜單上標(biāo)示餐點(diǎn)的營養(yǎng)成分。但一些普通民眾認(rèn)為查爾斯的呼吁不無道理。

Prince Charles suggested Tuesday on a visit to the United Arab Emirates that banning McDonald's fast food was crucial for improving people's diets, a British news agency reported.

Charles made the comments while visiting the Imperial College LondonDiabetes Centerin Abu Dhabi for the launch of a public health campaign, The Press Association reported.

"Have you got anywhere with McDonald's? Have you tried getting it banned? That's the key," Charles was quoted as asking one of the center's nutritionists.

A McDonald's spokesman, Nick Hindle, called the remark disappointing. He said other members of the royal family "have probably got a more up-to-date picture of us," alluding to reports that Charles' son, Prince Harry, was spotted eating a chicken burger at McDonald's in 2005.

"This appears to be anoff-the-cuffremark, in our opinion," Hindle said. "It does not reflect our menu or where we are as a business."

The Oak Brook, Illinois-based McDonald's Corp. took steps last year to display nutrition facts on its packaging and vary its menu to counter charges that its food is unhealthy and contributes to obesity. There are 25 McDonald's franchises in the United Arab Emirates.

Charles, who is first in line to the British throne, is an active advocate oforganic foodand in 1986 set up a farm on his Highgrove Estate that does not use artificial pesticides or fertilizers.

The prince was in the United Arab Emirates with his wife, Camilla, as part of a tour of Gulf countries.

The United Arab Emirates has the world's second highest number of diabetes cases per capita, with more than 20 percent of those aged 20 to 79 already diagnosed with the illness, while 40 percent of the population are at risk.
