Move over Kobe beef and aged whiskey. It turns out cheese is the most stolen food in the world, says a recent global study.
最近一项全球性的调查显示,奶酪打败神户牛肉和高年份威士忌成为最容易被偷的食物。

That's the finding of a new report by the U.K.'s Center for Retail Research, which surveyed 1,187 retailers representing more than 250,000 retail outlets across 43 countries.
英国零售调查中心给出的这份最新调查报告对来自43个国家,代表25万销售网点的1187位零售商做了调查。

The figures showed 4% of cheese went missing from store shelves.
数据显示有4%奶酪会从货架上失踪。

With the price of cheese rising, Bamfield says this is far from surprising given it could be seen as "a lucrative business opportunity for small time criminals."
随着奶酪的价格节节攀升,出现“窃贼把小偷小摸当做发财的机会”的情况也不会太惊讶。

"It's not just grannies saying, I need some cheese I'll just go and steal it. A lot of the theft is for resale and a lot of this cheese will be resold into other markets or to restaurants."
“我想吃奶酪,然后就去偷,事情没有这么简单。很多小偷偷了这些奶酪之后其实是拿出去再卖给商店或者餐馆。”

Other "high risk" foods to make the most stolen food list include fresh meat, chocolate, alcohol, seafood and infant formula.
其他容易被偷“高风险”食品包括鲜肉、巧克力、酒类、海鲜和婴儿食品。
