Ice cubes used by fast-food giants KFC, McDonald's and Guangzhou-based Kungfu at branches in Beijing contained bacteria far in excess of the national limit, according to China Central Television.
Some were even dirtier than toilet bowl water, CCTV said
The three fast-food operators said they were carrying out inspections and enhancing disinfection at the stores involved.
CCTV reporters sent ice cubes from the Chongwenmen outlets of KFC, McDonald's and Kungfu for lab tests. The KFC ice cubes were 20 times the limit, and 13 times higher than water samples taken from toilet bowls.
The amount of bacterial colonies found at McDonald's and Kungfu ice cubes reached 120 CFU and 900 CFU (colony-forming units) per milliliter respectively, exceeding the national limit of 100 per milliliter.
The CFU level of Kungfu's ice cubes was six times higher than toilet water, CCTV reported. Full story...
