In the European Union, carrots must be firm but not woody, cucumbers must not be too curved and celery has to be free of any type of cavity. This was the law, one that banned overly curved, extra-knobbly or oddly shaped produce from supermarket shelves.

在歐盟，市場(chǎng)出售的胡蘿卜必須脆而不糠，黃瓜也不能太彎，芹菜一點(diǎn)空心都不能有。因?yàn)檫^(guò)去法規(guī)禁止超市出售外形過(guò)彎、疙疙瘩瘩或者外形奇怪的農(nóng)產(chǎn)品。

But in a victory for opponents of European regulation, 100 pages of legislation determining the size, shape and texture of fruit and vegetables have been torn up. On Wednesday, EU officials agreed to axe rules laying down standards for 26 products, from peas to plums.

但是最終反對(duì)這條歐盟法規(guī)的人士取得了勝利，這意味著約100頁(yè)規(guī)定果蔬尺寸、外形和質(zhì)地的相關(guān)法規(guī)得以廢除。周三，歐盟有關(guān)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人同意廢除對(duì)部分農(nóng)產(chǎn)品的強(qiáng)制性標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，范圍涉及豌豆、李子等26個(gè)品種。

以英國(guó)媒體為首，各界批評(píng)家常就這一法規(guī)對(duì)歐盟動(dòng)輒插手干涉的作風(fēng)冷嘲熱諷。有關(guān)部門(mén)希望此舉能息事寧人/ 正是基于這一現(xiàn)狀促使有關(guān)部門(mén)將其廢除。

With the cost of the weekly supermarket visit on the rise, it has become increasingly hard to defend the act of throwing away food just because it looks strange.

老百姓去超市購(gòu)物的花費(fèi)每周都在上漲，在這種情況下，就因?yàn)槭卟怂L(zhǎng)得不夠標(biāo)準(zhǔn)就扔掉，實(shí)在說(shuō)不過(guò)去。

明年七月開(kāi)始，這
