Among them, the culprit of the poisoning was a snack called "Napoleon" that contained salmonella.

According to the Shanghai Food and Drug Administration, recently, there have been continuous reports of complaints from consumers after dining at the "Yi Cong Xiao Que Xing" restaurant (company name: Shanghai Yezi Catering Management Co., Ltd.) in many stores in Shanghai. Complaints of symptoms such as gastrointestinal discomfort occur.

After receiving complaints from consumers, the Shanghai market supervision department ordered all nine stores and central kitchens of "Yi Leng Xiao Guo Xing" in the city to stop production and operations, take control measures such as sealing up relevant food and its raw materials, and An investigation into the cause of this incident was launched.

After investigation, the main symptoms of gastrointestinal discomfort after eating at the "Yi Cong Xiao Que Xing" restaurant were fever and diarrhea.

They went to the hospital for treatment after dining at the "One Cage Little Lucky" restaurant. Most of the patients fell ill between July 16 and 19, and all patients have recovered.

According to a survey by the Shanghai Market Supervision Department, most of the ingredients for "Yi Leng Xiao Guo Xing" restaurant stores in Shanghai are supplied by the central kitchen. The items approved by the central kitchen food business license are cold-processed semi-finished products and hot-processed semi-finished products. . Surveillance video shows that after the cream cheese sauce (ready-to-eat food) processed in the central kitchen and used to make the filling of "Napoleon" snack products is delivered to the store, it is processed and made into "Napoleon" snack products on-site by the "Yilong Xiaojuexing" restaurant.

2. How to treat food poisoning

1. General treatment

Bed rest, the early diet should be an easily digestible liquid or semi-liquid diet. After the condition improves, Normal diet can be resumed. Salmonella food poisoning should be isolated at the bedside.

2. Symptomatic treatment

For those with obvious vomiting and abdominal pain, propantheline (probenthene) can be taken orally or atropine can be injected subcutaneously, or anisodamine can be injected. Those who are able to eat should be given oral rehydration fluids. Those who are unable to eat due to severe vomiting or have frequent diarrhea should be given intravenous infusion of sugar and saline. If acidosis occurs, supplement 5% sodium bicarbonate injection or 11.2% sodium lactate solution as appropriate. Those with severe dehydration or even shock should actively replenish fluids, maintain electrolyte balance, and provide anti-shock treatment.

3. Antibacterial treatment

Generally, antibacterial drugs are not needed. For severe patients with high fever, antibacterial drugs can be selected according to different pathogenic bacteria. For example, quinolone antibiotics can be used to treat Salmonella and Vibrio parahaemolyticus.

The above are the three treatment methods for food poisoning. For us ordinary people, we may not have professional medical knowledge. Therefore, when food poisoning occurs, we must seek medical treatment in time. Of course, we can also try to induce vomiting to alleviate the degree of poisoning while rushing for treatment.

3. Prevent food poisoning in summer

1. Don’t eat leftovers. In fact, these are the most susceptible to poisoning. Some people will eat leftovers if they are reluctant to throw them away. Rice, actually this is wrong.

In summer, even meals that do not last overnight must be refrigerated in time and cannot be stored at room temperature to avoid creating conditions for the growth and reproduction of germs and the release of toxins.

2. Delicious cold drinks, especially cold drinks on the street, because the ice used in unlicensed street stalls is mostly industrial ice, which contains a large number of bacteria and other toxic substances. Moreover, sellers generally do not have health checks and can easily cause food poisoning or other illnesses after eating.

3. Pay attention to pesticide poisoning in vegetables. It is best to go to regular markets when buying green leafy vegetables. If the edible parts of vegetables are damaged, they should be eaten immediately and do not store them to prevent the damaged parts from reacting and producing toxic substances such as nitrite after being left for a long time. If you are using a detergent specifically designed for fruits and vegetables, just follow the product instructions for the detergent. If cleaning with clean water, soak for 20 to 30 minutes before cleaning. In addition, washing vegetables with rice water can effectively remove residual pesticides.

4. When eating in summer, you should eat less cold dishes. This is because when the temperature is too high, if you go to a restaurant to eat, or if you want to hold a wedding banquet, birthday banquet or other large banquet, You should choose a restaurant with sufficient reception capacity, because some finished or semi-finished dishes need to be prepared long before the meal starts. If the food is not stored properly, it will easily deteriorate.

5. Add vinegar to cold dishes, which can kill some bacteria. Halophilic bacteria are often contained in the sting skin. After people eat this kind of jellyfish skin, it can cause food poisoning by halophilic bacteria. If jellyfish skin is soaked in 2% vinegar solution before eating, halophilic bacteria can be killed in 10 minutes. Someone experimented and put halophilic bacteria into vinegar and they would die in just 1-3 minutes.
