The world's largest beverage-maker, Coca-Cola, plans to remove a controversial ingredient from its drinks by the end of this year following an online petition. Brominated vegetable oil, or BVO, is found in drinks such as Fanta but is banned in Europe and Japan. It will be replaced after concerns an element of the additive is also found in flame retardants. Rival Pepsi removed the chemical from its Gatorade sports drink last year. A Pepsi spokesman said it also had wider plans to stop using BVO and had "been actively working to remove it from the rest of our product portfolio". Pepsi uses the ingredient in its Mountain Dew and Amp Energy drinks. However, Coca-Cola spokesman Josh Gold stressed the move to remove BVO was not an issue of safety. "All of our beverages, including those with BVO, are safe and always have been - and comply with all regulations in the countries where they are sold," he said in a statement. "The safety and quality of our products is our highest priority." 全球飲料制造商可口可樂(lè)公司近日宣布將于年底前停止使用頗受爭(zhēng)議飲料成分：溴化植物油(BVO)，而其競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手百事公司在去年就宣布，旗下運(yùn)動(dòng)飲品佳得樂(lè)將停止使用該成分。 溴化植物油(英語(yǔ)：Brominated vegetable oil;縮寫(xiě)作BVO)是一種把植物油溴化后制成的食物添加劑，可在柑橘味道的飲料里作起云劑之用。 溴化植物油在食品工業(yè)的應(yīng)用始于1931年，其作用是增加油份的密度，使其與水份更容易混和。 由于溴是一種對(duì)人類(lèi)存在毒性的元素，聯(lián)合國(guó)糧食及農(nóng)業(yè)組織、世界衛(wèi)生組織食物添加劑聯(lián)合專(zhuān)家委員會(huì)已對(duì)溴化植物油的安全作評(píng)估，認(rèn)為溴化植物油不該用于食品添加劑。現(xiàn)時(shí)世上有不少?lài)?guó)家都已禁用(如日本，英國(guó)等)，但在美國(guó)仍然可以合法使用。
