China is a veritable "Chopsticks Big Country". Recently, a "report that chopsticks used for more than three months or induced liver cancer" was on the Internet and immediately attracted public attention. Yesterday, the reporter found that a pair of chopsticks used in a few years is a common problem in many people's homes, and experts found through experiments that the wooden chopsticks used after a long time, the bacterial content is very exaggerated, it is recommended to change frequently.

Chopsticks should be changed quickly

After the chopsticks are used for a long time, the color of the chopsticks will become darker or lighter with time and frequency of use. It is recommended to replace them. The color of the chopsticks changes, indicating that the nature of the material itself must change. The long-term accumulation of bacteria is the main factor in the color change. When you use chopsticks, you should observe every day whether the surface of the chopsticks is attached with spots, especially mildew. If there are non-bamboo or wood-colored spots on the chopsticks, it means that the chopsticks are likely to have been mildewed and cannot be used. Although Aspergillus flavus is present in mildewed grains, Du Kechang, Department of Microbiology and Quarantine, Nanjing Center for Disease Control and Prevention, believes that “the proliferation of Aspergillus flavus on chopsticks is possible.” In a humid, sunless environment Fungi are easy to grow, and Aspergillus flavus is no exception.

4 points of chopsticks

1 Using super 3 months will cause cancer?

After a long time of use, it may breed a kind of carcinogen "aflatoxin"

Chopsticks can cause cancer? The reporter found that the source of the Weibo came from a survey report by CCTV. CCTV reported on August 1 that when the chopsticks are used for 3-6 months, the color will become darker or lighter with the frequency of use. Disposable chopsticks used in excess use will breed a variety of molds, which may lead to infectious diarrhea, vomiting and other diseases. Severely moldy chopsticks will breed "aflatoxin". The reporter learned that the substance was classified as a type of carcinogen by the World Health Organization and would have a destructive effect on human and animal liver tissues. It has been widely recognized to induce liver cancer.

2 Can carcinogens not be washed?

It is recommended to put the chopsticks in boiling water for half an hour and then dry them.

"I never knew before", chopsticks caused cancer. After the online heat transmission, many netizens could not believe it, and even felt "not reliable." Yesterday, the reporter consulted 20 people around the world. Only two of them proposed to replace the chopsticks used at home for about half a year.

Moisture can cause mildew, will it improve if it is completely dried? The reporter consulted Zhejiang Tianzhu, a manufacturer of chopsticks for many years. The company Liu told reporters that the most common method for ordinary people is to wash the chopsticks and put them into the chopsticks box to drain naturally, but it will inevitably accumulate water, Aspergillus flavus Toxins are heat-resistant, and cooking temperatures in daily life are difficult to achieve thorough sterilization.

However, Du Kechang of Nanjing CDC suggested that chopsticks should be placed in boiling water for half an hour every week, and then placed in the air to dry and then use, so that it can achieve good disinfection.

3 Chopsticks also have a shelf life?

Experiments show that it is more appropriate to change chopsticks once every six months

The reporter visited the supermarket and saw that more than half of the chopsticks are bamboo and wood, with a small amount of stainless steel chopsticks or alloy chopsticks. Among the 8 brands of chopsticks sold, 4 brands of chopsticks are marked with the words “Use 3-6 months is appropriate” or “Please replace in time” on some of the hardcover products. For the "shelf life" of chopsticks, Ms. Liu from Zhejiang Tianzhu Company believes that this statement is "not accurate." It’s not that the “shelf life” chopsticks will deteriorate immediately, but “the use of chopsticks for a long time will cause deformation and blackening”. However, this half-year or three-to-five-month deadline is presented, and there is currently no accurate data standard.

Dong Jinshi, secretary-general of the International Food Packaging Association, said that he had experimentally compared that under the same conditions, the longer the chopsticks used, the more bacteria are detected in the cross section, and the replacement of the semi-annual is a more appropriate time. node.

4 How to choose chopsticks?

Household chopsticks are best to choose bamboo chopsticks or lacquered wooden chopsticks.

In addition to ordinary bamboo chopsticks on the market, the types of wooden chopsticks are becoming more and more numerous. In the supermarket, the reporter saw chopsticks made of different kinds of wood such as sandalwood, fragrant wood, iron wire, and kale bean, as well as metal chopsticks, melamine chopsticks and so on. The reporter learned from Zhejiang Tianzhu that wooden chopsticks still occupy more than half of the market, especially bamboo chopsticks.

Dong Jinshi, secretary-general of the International Food Packaging Association, believes that it is best to choose chopsticks or wooden chopsticks coated with lacquer. Now many unit canteens use chopsticks similar to plastic materials. Dong Jinshi introduces this as a kind of melamine material. If it is cleaned, the chance of breeding bacteria is small, but pay attention to the QS quality mark and beware of counterfeit and shoddy products. At the same time, such chopsticks are not suitable for use in high temperature conditions to prevent the secretion of harmful substances.
