Due to the hot weather, high temperature and high humidity in summer, it is suitable for the growth and reproduction of various microorganisms, pathogenic bacteria and molds. Zongzi contains water and consists of glutinous rice, meat (or red bean paste) and other raw materials. It is easy to deteriorate when stored at room temperature for more than 2 hours.

How to eat cooked zongzi healthily: After the zongzi is bought home, it should be thoroughly heated before eating.

Because some zongzi are relatively large, and the production and processing of zongzi are carried out in batches, it is inevitable that some zongzi will be raw, so when I go home to unpack, I find that they are not cooked very well, and I have to cook them again before I can eat them.

Don't buy or eat zongzi that can't be stored at room temperature and sold without refrigeration facilities.

Don't put zongzi in the fresh-keeping layer after cooking and air-drying, because it is easy to deteriorate there, and it won't deteriorate if it is placed in the frozen layer for ten and a half months (the refrigerator temperature is preferably five to three degrees Celsius).

Although we carefully preserve the cooked zongzi, it is not easy to digest because most of them are made of glutinous rice, so it is not advisable to eat too much at a time, especially for the elderly, children, people with poor gastrointestinal function and patients.
