时差N小时 花生也致命(下)（在线收听）

It may seem implausible that so much harm can result from such a seemingly innocent, useful food.

令人难以置信的是，这么严重的伤害居然来自于这样一种看起来无害、健康的食物。

But, it’s the peanut’s usefulness that makes it so dangerous.

不过，正是花生的益处让其变得危险。

Peanuts and peanut products are used in a wide variety of packaged foods, but are not always listed as an ingredient.

花生及花生加工食品被广泛制成袋装食品，但在成分表中却不总是标明。

Since it’s possible for even the slightest trace of peanut protein to trigger an allergic reaction, these hidden ingredients can cause considerable harm.

因为有可能很少量的花生蛋白就能诱发过敏反应，如果不标出这些成分可能带来严重危害。

In some cases, even kissing a person who’s just eaten a “peanuty” food can be dangerous.

在某些情况下，亲吻一位刚吃了花生食品的人甚至也会带来危险。

If you have a peanut allergy never assume that foods are made without peanuts.

如果您对花生过敏，千万不要想当然认为您吃的食物中不含花生。

Call the manufacturer and find out. Also, before you move in for a kiss, make sure that he or she is peanut free.

最好打电话跟厂家确定一下。同时，当您与爱人亲吻时，记得先确定他/她有没有吃过花生。
