The traditional virtue of our country is to save food and not to be extravagant and wasteful. Eating out at a buffet is a good example of this. Some people eat as much as they can, while others eat from the bowl and look at the pot. If this kind of behavior is wasted in the end, there will be a certain cash penalty. But having said that, no matter how wasteful people are, even the elderly who have a frugal spirit will not continue to eat expired food. But why do some young people still eat it? Now I want to talk to you about the issue of whether food can still be eaten after it has expired. Perhaps the answer given by most people is that it cannot be eaten and must be thrown away. For fruits and vegetables that have become rotten, they may be infected with aflatoxin. Don’t underestimate its toxicity, as it is a substance that can induce liver disease and even liver cancer. I definitely can’t eat this kind of food again. No one would play with their own lives. Except for this kind of food, they should also throw away moldy bread. But there are several foods that you can safely eat after the expiration date: Boxed milk: whether it is boxed milk or bagged milk. All have been sterilized, some pasteurized, and some ultra-high temperature sterilized. After a few days of expiration, you can still drink the milk as long as you haven't opened it or drank it. You don’t have to worry about the bacteria inside. Usually, they are poured into bacteria-free containers under sterile conditions. We can continue to drink this kind of milk. If you have this kind of milk at home, you can drink it as soon as possible and don't leave it lying around so it won't be wasted. Canned meat: Canned meat is a delicacy that many people like to eat, especially those who don’t like cooking but want to eat meat. Sometimes they may buy canned meat. Such food can still be eaten after it expires. Of course, this also has a prerequisite, that is, the can is not opened. In addition, the shelf life of meat is already very long, and a large amount of salt is added during the production process, which increases the shelf life of the food. As long as it has not been opened, expired canned meat is safe to eat. Original oatmeal: The original oatmeal mentioned here refers to oatmeal that has not been carefully processed. Such oatmeal can be eaten even if it has not been opened but has expired. Because it contains less moisture, it is less likely to attract bacteria and mold. But the only thing that may affect it is the overall taste of oatmeal. If you don't care about the taste and are very economical on weekdays, you can continue to eat oatmeal like this. Similar to oatmeal, there are millet, black rice, etc. In addition, biscuits with little water content can also be eaten. Dear friends, do you have expired food at home?
