　　Renowned CCTV anchor Zhao Pu warned of the potential dangers of consuming firm yogurt and jelly in his microblog on Monday.

　　知名央视主播赵普周一在微博上发出提醒，号召不要食用固体酸奶和果冻。

　　An anonymous CCTV staff worker implied such foods might contain gelatin, a collagen-derived material made from animal skin and bones, and used in the chemical industry, the Beijing News reported.

　　据《新京报》报道，另一名未透露姓名的央视人员也暗示，这类食品可能含有某种明胶。明胶是从动物皮肤和骨骼中提取出来的胶原蛋白衍生品，是一种化工材料。

　　From the reports, the public widely believed industrial gelatin was being used as an addictive to improve the food's flavor.

　　报道指出，公众普遍认为工业明胶是作为增稠剂，改良食物的口味。

　　But Fujian Qinqin Inc., a jelly maker responded as saying jelly's viscous agent is not gelatin but rather carrageenan, which is safe to eat.

　　但果冻企业福建亲亲股份有限公司回应称，果冻的增稠剂中并不含明胶，而是卡拉胶，可以放心食用。

　　While an unidentified dairy company said big firms wouldn't use industrial gelatin, adding that edible gelatin causes no harm to human consumption and is a nationally-approved addictive.

　　某乳企也表示，大企业绝不可能使用工业明胶，而食用明胶对身体是无害的，而且是国家允许的添加剂。

　　However, the two gelatins are unable to be differentiated in appearance, posing difficulties for consumers.

　　不过这两种明胶从外观上并无法分辨，给消费者造成困难。

　　Health experts suggest consuming less soft candies and not buying firm yogurts. In addition, customers should always choose name brands.

　　健康专家建议少食用软糖，不要买过于浓稠的酸奶。消费者也应该购买大品牌产品。
