Hydrogen peroxide is an aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide, which is often used for sterilization. Some merchants may treat bamboo shoots with hydrogen peroxide to extend their shelf life or improve their appearance, making them look fresher and whiter.

However, this does not mean that all shoots are soaked in hydrogen peroxide. Generally speaking, normal bamboo shoots do not need to be treated with hydrogen peroxide. If you are worried that the bamboo shoots you buy are not fresh or have been treated with hydrogen peroxide, you can observe the color, texture and other characteristics of the bamboo shoots to determine their quality.

Additionally, if you find a businessman using hydrogen peroxide to treat bamboo shoots and other food products, you can complain to the relevant departments to ensure food safety.
