康师傅否认地沟油丑闻

 　　TIANJIN, Aug. 3 (Xinhua) -- Tingyi Holding Corp. on Monday denied that its instant noodles sold on the Chinese mainland were ever affected¹ by a cooking oil scandal.

　　A spokesperson for the company based in north China's Tianjin Municipality said the company will take legal measures against a rumormonger who had spread the story on the internet.

　　In a video online, a Taiwan tour guide told tourists from the mainland to boycott² all products from Tingyi as they were all involved in the latest food safety incident in Taiwan.

　　Last year, Ting Hsin International Group, the parent company of Tingyi, and many of Ting Hsin's suppliers were found selling cooking oil tainted³ with animal feed.
