When we buy fruits, many people rush to buy the big and colorful ones. Is this scientific? In life, when people buy fruits, they always like to choose those with bright colors and large and juicy fruits. But when eating, many people find that these beautiful-looking fruits do not taste very good. What is going on? It turns out that in order to increase the shelf life and freshness of fruits, most fruit farmers often pick the fruits when they are half-ripe and transport them from the production area to the sales area. If the fruits are not fully ripe when they arrive at the sales area, some unscrupulous vendors will use illegal means to "ripen" or "make up" the fruits.bananaTake bananas for example. To ensure that they do not rot, they are only 70% ripe when shipped from the south. If the bananas are not fully ripe when they arrive at the sales place, some vendors will apply a layer of ripening agent containing sulfur dioxide on the surface of the unripe bananas, then smoke them over a fire of 30 to 40 degrees and store them. In a day or two, the bananas will all become large, yellow, fresh and tender, high quality products, and the price can be 4 times higher than when they were purchased.For example, if a watermelon is not fully ripe, unscrupulous vendors will use a syringe to inject red tap water into the watermelon. This not only makes the flesh bright red when cut, but also increases the weight of the watermelon. persimmonWhen dealing with raw persimmons, unscrupulous vendors will use yeast or ripening agents to ripen them, which directly leads to a significant reduction in the sweetness of the persimmons. Don't be too superstitious about color and sizeFor this reason, relevant experts have called on consumers not to be too superstitious about color and size when purchasing fruits. If possible, it is best to choose familiar stalls to buy fruits, because illegal vendors often take advantage of new customers. |
