When buying food, know 8 don't buy
In the food section of the supermarket, I inadvertently grabbed the arm of a middle-aged woman who seemed familiar and asked nervously, "Auntie, do you think you can buy this kind of meat?" She was about to pick up a bag of discounted pork.
She frowned, put down the meat in her hand, and gave me a lively lesson instead. "Young man, there is the principle of 'eight don't buy' when buying food, and today I will teach you. Her words were firm and serious, and I immediately took out my phone and prepared to record it.
"First of all, don't buy food with broken packaging. She said as she pointed to the damaged rice noodles on the side. "Look, such food is susceptible to moisture and contamination. ”
"Second, expired food should never be bought. She then picked up a box of cookies that were close to their expiration date, "Even if it's on sale, expired food can be a health risk." ”
We walked past a few shelves, and she continued: "Don't buy food without labels. The information on the label helps us understand the origin and composition of the food. Without this information, we cannot judge its safety. ”
"Also, don't buy food with too many additives. She pointed to a colorful snack package, "Too many chemical additives can be bad for the body." ”
Walking to the meat section, she adds: "Look here, don't buy meat with unusual color, it could mean it's spoiled or mishandled." ”
I recorded as I walked, and my aunt's words echoed in my ears. Every word she says reveals a deep understanding and care for food safety. I began to realize that my usual rush shopping habits needed to change.
Finally, she concluded: "Don't buy food that tastes abnormal, don't buy food from unknown sources, and finally, don't buy food that is unusually irritating. These are the basic principles that keep our diet safe. ”
This shopping is not just a simple transaction, it is an investment in the quality of life. From my aunt, I learned how to choose every food item that enters our house with a meticulous eye.
When I got home, I sorted out my notes and started writing this article. I hope that through my writings, I can help more people understand and grasp the principle of "eight no-buys", so that everyone can be more cautious when buying food and ensure the food safety of their families. This is not only a responsibility, but also a love for the health of family members.
