Is tender meat powder really poisonous?

We often hear "this meat is so tender, it must be put tender meat powder, don't buy it", but in fact, is this really the case?

Tender meat powder is composed of papain, bromelain, fig protease, and nitrite. What is commonly referred to as toxic refers to nitrite. Those proteases are natural from their names, and indeed they are. What we usually call toxic is that the nitrite contained is toxic, people ingest 3g can lead to death, but leave the dose to talk about toxicity, pure hooliganism, because nitrite has a good hair color tender antiseptic and other effects The most important thing is to effectively inhibit the production of botulinum toxin, has not yet found its pure natural substitute, because of this property, in the food safety law, smoked meat products can exist nitrite, but not more than 0.15g / kg, In ancient times, there was a cooking with saltpeter rubbing the pot to make the meat more tender, now do not try ah, but now nitrite belongs to the pipe products, can not buy, as long as in the regular enterprise to buy meat products generally no problem.

Tip, if you want to make the meat more tender, you can pat it with the back of a knife while cooking, or put the meat in a plastic bag and drop it a few times.

I wish you all good food, drink, and immortality.
