Cane
As a sweet and juicy food
It has always been popular
But it's this seemingly harmless sugar cane
But it can also become a deadly "poison"
Cases of poisoning from eating sugar cane are not uncommon
Well, this first sweet and then dregs of sugar cane
Why does it cause poisoning?
What kind of sugar cane can't be eaten?
below
Let's uncover this truth for everyone~
"Red heart": The "red heart" of sugarcane is due to the mildew inside the sugarcane, and the mold multiplies and grows in the sugarcane core to produce nitric acid, which makes the phenomenon of redness. Studies have shown that mildew and reddened sugarcane will produce a neurotoxin 3-nitropropionic acid, which is a toxic metabolite of Penicillium and Aspergillus, which will cause limb convulsions in a short period of time after entering the human body, and even cause death.
Softening: Fresh cane is hard and generous, and if it is soft or spills out when pinched by hand, it is a sign that it has spoiled.
Long hair: If you find that there are white or green hairs on the surface, it indicates that undesirable pathogenic bacteria have been grown.
Strange smell: The cane juice squeezed from normal sugarcane is sweet and refreshing, with the unique fragrance of sugarcane, if you smell a peculiar smell such as sour musty smell or distiller's lees smell, it means that it has deteriorated, and such sugarcane cannot be eaten.
One look: the thickness is selected medium, too thick and easy to hollow, too fine and the flesh is not so sweet.
Second look: choose the darker the color, the darker the color, the higher the sweetness.
Three looks: the fewer the number of sections, the better, the fewer the number of sections, the higher the nutrient content, and 7-8 sections are the most suitable.
Now
Sugarcane has been put on the market one after another
