1. Germinated potatoes
Germinated potatoes can't be eaten, which should be a kind of knowledge and common sense!
Potatoes, called potatoes in some places, are easy to germinate if they are stored for a little longer. Potatoes contain toxic substances, and solanine content in potatoes germinated by solanine is the highest, so eating germinated potatoes, especially uncooked potatoes, is easy to cause poisoning.
Even the unsweetened potatoes themselves contain solanine, but the content is relatively small. By heating and cleaning, part of solanine can be dissolved and washed away, so potatoes must be thoroughly washed before eating, and then cooked before eating.
As for sprouted or discolored potatoes, really don't risk eating them.
2. Red sugar cane
Normal sugarcane, the color inside should be white or white cyan or yellow. Very sweet, very thirst-quenching.
But moldy sugarcane will be hollow and red, so this part will be moldy and inedible. Otherwise, eating it will affect people's health, and it is prone to a series of food poisoning such as diarrhea, nausea and vomiting.
Is it true that "Qingming sugarcane is more poisonous than snakes"?
There was a case reported in the news, in which Xiao Ai Wu in jingshan county, Hubei Province was originally lively and healthy. At the age of seven, his grandfather brought a crutch from his hometown. After eating it, his hands and feet twitched and he could not stand up. He stopped growing for more than 30 years, and his body and mind are still only seven or eight years old.
Sugarcane is usually harvested around June 5438+ 10. After a winter's storage, it is likely to be moldy in the second year, polluted by a bacterium called Arthrosporus, and produce a toxic substance called trinitropropionic acid. The human body will have a toxic reaction if it eats this substance, and it will be life-threatening if it eats too much.
3. Rotten ginger
Ginger contains gingerol, which not only has the effects of antioxidation and scavenging free radicals, but also can resist gene mutation, so it has the effect of preventing cancer. But can rotten and moldy ginger still be eaten?
Have you ever heard the old saying "rotten ginger doesn't stink"? Although rotten ginger has not changed its taste, can it really be eaten again?
According to experts, after ginger rots, it will produce a harmful substance called safrole, which is very toxic and can induce esophageal cancer and liver cancer.
Therefore, moldy and rotten ginger can no longer be eaten, and it should be thrown away as a whole. Don't think that the rotten part can be cut off and the other parts can continue to be eaten, because not only the rotten part contains safrole, but also the other parts are difficult to escape.
Tips for keeping ginger fresh: Don't use fresh-keeping bags or plastic bags to store bought ginger or a large number of hoarded ginger, but wrap them in newspapers and store them in a cool and ventilated place or sand.
4. Moldy melon seeds and peanuts
Melon seeds and peanuts are very common nut foods, and they are essential foods for plays and parties.
When eating melon seeds, you should encounter them, and occasionally there will be a few bitter gourd seeds. Bitter gourd seeds are melon seeds that have undergone qualitative change and mildew. Is inedible.
Moldy melon seeds and peanuts can produce aflatoxin. The toxicity of aflatoxin is very strong, which is 68 times that of arsenic and 10 times that of potassium cyanide. It is one of the strongest chemical carcinogens found at present, and frequent intake will increase the risk of liver cancer.
So pay attention to eating melon seeds and peanuts. If we occasionally encounter broken melon seeds, don't eat them reluctantly. Be sure to spit them out and rinse your mouth with clear water. Otherwise, the loss will outweigh the gain.
5. African snails
Friends in Guangdong should have seen that kind of very big snail. It is a giant snail in Africa and the largest land snail certified by Guinness. Guinness recorded the largest snail as: when fully extended, the length from nose to tail was 39.3 cm.
African snails originated in eastern Africa, and then gradually spread to all parts of the world. Now it has become an invasive species in China. It was in the 1980s, and many people in Fujian cultivated land, then went to the wild, and then began to flood. It will harm more than 500 kinds of crops and even eat cement.
African giant snails can't eat or touch at will, mainly because they carry many bacteria, germs, parasites and pathogens, which can spread tuberculosis and eosinophilic meningitis.
Therefore, friends from other places, if they come to South China and see this big snail in the wild or in the green belt, don't be curious and think it is some kind of conch. Feel free to touch the collection.
6. Immature tomatoes
Tomatoes are appetizing and thirst-quenching. They are nutritious and many people like to eat them. There are also many dishes made of tomatoes, such as scrambled eggs with tomatoes, tomato and egg soup, cold tomatoes, stewed beef with tomatoes and so on.
But what many people don't necessarily know is that immature tomatoes contain a lot of alkaloids called solanine, which is slightly toxic and can't be eaten or eaten more.
Immature tomatoes are actually hard and astringent, so you need to wait patiently. It is best to pick the red tomatoes from the branches and wash them before eating.
There are many common tomato varieties, such as big tomato, cherry tomato, Roman tomato, beef heart tomato and black pearl tomato.
In addition, I don't know if you still remember a kind of green tomato called "thieves don't steal". When it is ripe, its skin is blue. Therefore, this variety should be treated differently.
7.wine made from poisonous snakes
In real life, many people like to soak wine with medicinal materials or other poisonous creatures. Liquor soaked in medicinal materials or other organisms is called medicinal liquor. Some are edible, but some are absolutely inedible. For example, wine soaked in poisonous snakes is absolutely inedible and can be used externally.
20 14 Mr. Xie, a citizen of Nanchang, made a jar of wine with eight kinds of poisonous snakes, such as bamboo leaf green and golden ring snake, 22 years ago, thinking that snake wine had health care function. After 22 years of soaking, I opened it for the first time and took a sip, but my eyes were blurred and I couldn't see clearly. After a few hours, it slowly returned to normal.
Although the venom of poisonous snakes slowly decomposes in alcohol. However, if the wine is improperly stored and the alcohol in the jar volatilizes, then the venom of the snake soaked in it is not decomposed by enough alcohol, then this bottle of medicinal liquor becomes venom.
8. Aconitum soaked in wine
Besides poisonous snakes soaking wine, many people also like to soak wine with aconite.
Kusnezoff monkshood soaked in wine has always been effective in dispelling wind, removing dampness, warming channels and relieving pain. Aconitum kusnezoffii, also known as Herba Lysimachiae, contains aconitine, which is nearly 200 times more toxic than potassium cyanide.
Therefore, soaking wine with aconite is generally only for external use and must not be drunk. Drink it and hang up.
It has been reported in the news that a woman in her 60s in Lianyungang drank the wine soaked in wild aconite, and then she developed symptoms such as unconsciousness, arrhythmia and shock. I was sent to the hospital by my family for emergency treatment and slowly recovered.
The doctor said that Aconitum contains a lot of aconitine, which is very toxic to the heart, affects the self-discipline of the heart and causes arrhythmia. Therefore, doctors also advise the general public to consult a regular professional doctor when taking medicinal liquor. Ask about the correct brewing and use methods to avoid poisoning incidents.
