In the summer, when the weather is hot, many food safety problems have arisen again. High temperatures will accelerate the growth and reproduction of bacteria and cause food to spoil quickly. Therefore, it is time for the refrigerator to show its glory.
As a result, some people don’t want to smash things, as long as they eat all they have to put in the refrigerator. Whether leftovers, fruits, vegetables, meat, or refrigerators, they’re so full of enthusiasm that you think you’re safe?
In life, have you encountered such an example: When a child ate the food in the refrigerator, he vomited, symptoms of diarrhea, etc. It was clearly in the refrigerator! Is this not safe?
How can the baby get sick? The food in the refrigerator is safe and insecure? Xiao Bian brings you to understand it today. Maybe a lot of mums will immediately want to give the refrigerator a big sweep!
In fact, many of us will have a conceptual misunderstanding: It is safe to put things in the fridge.
However, if the refrigerator is used improperly, it may become a fertile ground for mold and bacterial growth.
Even if the food is in a low temperature environment of the refrigerator, there will still be many bacteria and germs. These bacteria will spread to each other and migrate to food. When we eat these foods, we will suffer from gastrointestinal problems.
Come and see what bacteria are in the refrigerator?
Pathogenic bacteria:
It can cause food poisoning, intestinal diseases, etc. Pathogenic bacteria grow rapidly between the dangerous temperatures of 4-60 degrees, but does not affect food taste, smell or appearance.
Corrupt bacteria:
This bacteria can spoil the food and produce a bad odor. The taste and texture change. This is why sometimes there is mouldy food in the refrigerator.
How to use the refrigerator properly, to prevent bacteria from opening parties!
1, do not clean the food before entering the box
Some people are accustomed to cleaning the food and put it in the refrigerator. There is a layer of anti-microbial 'protective film' on the surface of fruits and vegetables. After the protective film is washed out, it will invade the bacteria and accelerate food spoilage.
2, Do not put refrigerators in tropical fruits and vegetables
In fruits and vegetables, do not put the tropical fruit such as mango, banana, lychee in the refrigerator, otherwise it will be spoiled. In the summer, fruit watermelon is usually best, buy now and eat.
3, raw and cooked foods are stored separately
After opening the cooked meat products such as sausages and roast chickens, do not put them directly into the refrigerator along with the packaging bags; this will cause pollution to the refrigerator environment and will accelerate its deterioration. The best method is to put it in the crisper.
4, Food was eaten within two days of Kaifeng
All kinds of beverages, dairy products, meat, poultry, and egg foods are best served immediately after opening. If the rest of the refrigerator is stored, it should be eaten within 2 days.
