Just ask yourself, in this hot summer season, whose ethereal aura isn’t kept alive by a bite of ice watermelon? However, an experiment conducted a bacterial test on watermelons that had been refrigerated for 24 hours and found that 25g of watermelon contained 160 bacteria. If chilled watermelon is not stored properly, it may become a bacterial culture dish and is very harmful to the human body! Today, the first trending search is #A family of three ate overnight watermelon and got gastroenteritis#. So let's learn how to store watermelon correctly. 1. When cutting watermelon, using unclean kitchen knives and cutting boards (especially knives used after cutting raw meat) will cause a sharp increase in bacteria on the surface of the watermelon. Experimental data shows that if you simply clean the knife board used to cut meat and then continue to cut watermelon, you will find that every 25g of watermelon contains 8,400 bacteria. 2. After the watermelon is cut, if it is not put into the refrigerator in time, it is easy to be infected by bacteria. 3. When refrigerating, if the watermelon is not wrapped tightly with plastic wrap or unclean plastic wrap is used, it may also breed bacteria. 4. Using the refrigerator as a "storage cabinet", not distinguishing between raw and cooked food, storing sundries, and causing severe frost accumulation, can easily lead to cross-contamination of raw and cooked food in the refrigerator, and even pose a risk of food poisoning. 1. Distinguish between raw and cooked Raw food often contains parasites and bacteria, and if it is placed together with cooked food, it will contaminate the cooked food. 2. Leave space between food storage There should be a certain amount of space between foods when storing them in the refrigerator. This will not only extend the life of the refrigerator, but also prevent cross-infection of bacteria between foods. 3. Food packaging If meat needs to be frozen, it can be cut into pieces and packaged in advance as needed to avoid repeated thawing and the resulting bacterial growth. 4. Process before storage Vegetables and fruits can be wiped dry and put in the refrigerator, and cooked food can be packed in a fresh-keeping box and put in the refrigerator. 5. Bottled drinks are not frozen Beverages in glass bottles are best refrigerated, as freezing may cause the bottles to explode. 6. Don’t put overheated food in Overheating food may increase the operating load of the refrigerator and shorten the life of the refrigerator. ▲Storage time list The refrigerator is not a "safe", it can only delay the spoilage of food to a certain extent. If it is not cleaned for a long time, it will become a "bacteria gathering place". Regular cleaning is beneficial to the refrigerator and the food itself. 👉Avoid the smell of food from mixing with other foods and affecting the taste of new food 👉Avoid spoiled food from contaminating the refrigerator 👉Reduce refrigerator power consumption Eating melons in summer can help you cool down, but you should also avoid making the wrong choices~ Otherwise, be careful that the "life-saving watermelon" may turn into a "death watermelon"!
