After being busy for a while, colleagues in the company will have dinner parties from time to time. However, after the dinner party, everyone has different ideas as to whether the leftover food should be taken away. There is no absolute right answer. , I think it’s good to come according to your own needs. If you think it’s a waste, you can take it away, but if you think it will be unhygienic, don’t pack it. Of course, the premise is not to prevent others from packing it. Frugality is our traditional virtue, but do you know what to pay attention to when packing leftovers?
"Waiter, pack it up!" Everyone is familiar with this scene when dining out. Saving is a virtue! But in fact, in addition to meat and fish, it is the habit of "packing" the remaining vegetables. Not good for health.
Be sure to ask the waiter to separate the leftovers when packing them, and put them separately in clean, airtight containers after returning home. Because microorganisms in different foods grow at different rates, storing them separately can avoid cross-contamination. When hot food suddenly enters a low-temperature environment, the center of the food is prone to qualitative changes, and the heat brought in by the food will cause condensation of water vapor, prompting the growth of mold, resulting in mildew of the entire food in the refrigerator. Food stored in the refrigerator must be returned to the pot after being taken out. This is because the temperature of the refrigerator can only inhibit the reproduction of bacteria and cannot completely kill them. If you do not heat it before eating, it may cause discomfort such as dysentery or diarrhea.
Packaging method, although frugality is our traditional virtue, eating vegetables frequently is still harmful. Apart from the problem of nitrite, the biggest problem of overnight vegetables is actually the loss of nutrients and the abundance of germs. There are also many people with diarrhea.
So, can you eat leftovers from overnight? Yes! But it’s best not to eat it every day or for a long time!
