There are white bugs on the grapes

Grapes are a kind of fruit that is rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidant anthocyanins. In summer, grapes gradually ripen, and many people will buy a few bunches to take home to eat. However, recently many people bought grapes and found small white bugs on the grapes after taking them home. This made many people sick and cast a shadow on grapes. So what exactly are these little bugs on the grapes?

In fact, the small insects that come out of the grapes are small in size and do not grow inside the grapes. They may come from the larvae that hatched from the eggs on the grape branches. It is likely that insect eggs have grown on the grape branches, and after being soaked for a long time, they have grown into white larvae, but these insects do not affect the normal consumption of the fruit.

The worms are digested and broken down in the stomach and intestines, and some residues are excreted from the body with feces, which has no effect on the body. You can drink some mung bean soup and eat more foods high in crude fiber such as leeks and celery, which are good for accelerating the discharge of residues.

Therefore, as long as you pay attention to buying fresh grapes and store them carefully so that small insects such as fruit flies do not surround the grapes, the problem of insects being soaked in water will not occur.

However, if you want to eat delicious and nutritious grapes safely and cleanly, it is very important to wash the grapes. Everyone has noticed that there is a layer of white frost on the grapes. Many people think that it is pesticide residue. In fact, it is not. This layer of white frost is the sugar alcohol substances secreted by the fruits and vegetables themselves, also known as fruit powder. They are natural substances synthesized by biosynthesis and are completely harmless to the human body. Although harmless, a lot of dust and dirt will adhere to the white frost, which cannot be washed off with clean water. At this time, add a little flour, and you will be surprised to find that the grapes are washed very clean.
