「肉鬆」的英文怎麼說?

要向老外介紹「肉鬆」這種食物時
英文的講法是 pork floss [pork flɔs]
其他的講法還有:meat wool, meat floss, flossy pork
floss 這個字一般在生活中更常用到的意思是清潔齒縫的牙線,是不可數名詞
也叫 dental floss [ˋdɛnt! flɔs]
它還可以當動詞,指用牙線清潔齒縫
比如:

If you want to keep your gums healthy, it’s important to floss after you eat.
(假如你想維持牙齦的健康,吃完東西用牙線清潔齒縫是很重要的。)
那麼為什麼肉鬆會用到這個字呢?
其實是因為 floss 這個字的原義是指蠶繭外層的粗蠶絲
肉鬆因為是把乾燥的豬肉弄成絲狀
所以叫 pork floss
假如要講「肉鬆麵包」,叫做 a bun with pork floss on top
但假如不是橢圓形的麵包就說 bread with pork floss on top
可千萬別直譯成 pork floss bread 哦!
因為那樣會變成是指用肉鬆做成的麵包了
