On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhihu was on the hot search in an unbelievable way.
In order to let the friends spend the Mid-Autumn Festival happily, the Zhihu community sent mooncakes to the big Vs intimately, and unexpected things happened, after eating the mooncakes, within a few hours they turned into "jet warriors", one by one diarrhea pulled to doubt life, was jokingly called "Zhihu Big V removal plan" by netizens.
In fact, things are very simple, knowing that the purchased ingredients used for mooncakes are no problem to look at individually, but there is a big problem in making mooncakes together.
In order to be healthy, let everyone eat low-sugar and very sweet mooncakes, the person in charge of mooncake procurement and sales of Zhihu kindly chose a low-sugar recipe in the mooncake factory, and changed the original sucrose (white sugar) to maltitol, which is absolutely cost-effective, maltitol can be several times more expensive than sucrose. But there is one important factor that is not considered: a significant proportion of people do not tolerate maltitol.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" >what is maltitol? </h1>
Knowing that there are many professional big V, it quickly began to popularize the sound, and quickly locked the sugar substitute ingredient in the moon cake: maltitol. He also pointed out that for a 120-pound woman, the threshold for maltitol to cause diarrhea only needs 20 grams, and if it reaches 50 grams, it can cause diarrhea in more than half of the people. And the moon cake is a high oil and high sugar food, the amount of sugar is very large, maltitol itself is not sucrose sweet, the amount is not small, this amount is converted into a moon cake of Zhihu, basically one to two between. Zhihu officials also quickly admitted their mistake and announced the original commission of the incident.
Maltitol, also known as hydrogenated maltose, is a colorless transparent crystal, easily soluble in water, this kind of thing although there is a "sugar" word in the name, but it has little to do with sugar, is a sweetener, it basically can not be digested by any part of the body, can not be metabolized by microorganisms in the mouth, will not cause caries, can not be decomposed by saliva, gastric juice, non-toxic and non-irritating, does not produce heat and energy, but it is indeed sweet to eat, some patients who can not eat sugar can use it as a sugar substitute to eat, but lactose is not affected by people , you must not eat more.
As the "largest professional Q&A website in the field of Chinese", professionals gathered, but also began to question the professional ability of the manufacturer from a professional point of view, this time know that the occurrence of "sugar substitutes to reach the threshold will cause diarrhea" such a thing is indeed a bit ridiculous, play a lifetime of eagles, and finally by the eagle pecked blind, but fortunately in this type of diarrhea, is a one-time reaction, will not cause pathological harm, no longer continue to eat on the line.
Mooncakes are originally a kind of seasonal snacks in the Mid-Autumn Festival, the opportunity to eat usually is actually very small, even if it is a high-oil and high-sugar food, the Mid-Autumn Festival accidentally eats one or two, there will not be much impact on the body, there is really no need to draw snakes to add feet, blindly change the traditional recipe, and make the so-called "low-sugar" mooncakes. #知乎月饼吃了拉肚子 #
