What are the hazards of hot pot

The pace of life nowadays is fast, and many people have little time to cook for themselves, especially when it comes to eating some more troublesome meals, there is no time to prepare them. Therefore, many fast foods have become particularly popular foods, and there are more and more types of these fast foods. For example, the popular hot pot is very popular. Just add some cold water and you can eat hot pot, but such hot pot has certain hazards.

What are the dangers of self-heating instant hot pot? Will it explode?

With the fast pace of life, the popularity of convenience foods is inevitable. But behind the popularity of this small hot pot, there are also a series of problems hidden. Some gold diggers disrupted the market order, and negative news such as food spoilage and packaging explosion continued to appear. According to Xianji.com, the temperature of a self-heating instant hot pot can reach 120 degrees during the heating process, which can easily cause burns; and if the vent is blocked, it can easily cause a small explosion.

Safety hazards of self-heating instant hot pot :

Currently, most of the instant hot pots on the market are produced by OEM. During an undercover investigation, an instant hot pot OEM factory suggested to the reporter that as long as they register a trading company, they can leave the rest of the production and packaging links to them. "You need to have your own trademark, you need to do the packaging design, including your own marketing plan. After you finish it, give it to our printing factory for printing, we will assemble and produce it, and you sell it."

The OEM price is 11 to 12 yuan, while the market price is 26 to 36 yuan. The profit of up to one or even two times has spawned many brands in the small hot pot market. However, none of these brands is a professional convenience food manufacturer, and everything from ingredients to assembly of vegetable packs and heating packs needs to be done by OEM. In this case, as long as there is a problem with one product in the processing link, it will directly affect the overall quality.

Notes :

1. Make sure the vent is open. Fire experiments and consumers' experiences have confirmed the consequences of blocking the vents. When eating, be sure to open the vents to give the hot pot box a place to release pressure.

Relevant tests have shown that when the pores are open, the self-heating hot pot is still very safe, except that soup may occasionally overflow during the heating process.

2. Carefully check whether the ingredients are spoiled or have other hygiene issues. The self-heating hotpot market is currently a mixed bag, and the shelf life of self-heating hotpot is relatively short, so the ingredients must also be carefully checked.

3. Remember to only add cold water to the heating pack. Hot water can cause the water to boil violently, which is dangerous.

4. Try not to place it on a glass table, especially in winter. Even if you place it on the dining table, you need to add an insulation pad.

In winter, the temperature of glass is lower. If it is suddenly exposed to high temperature, according to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, the glass expands more where the temperature of the outer layer is higher, while the expansion of the inner layer is lower. The glass is prone to breakage during the deformation process.

5. Do not heat it in a microwave or oven.

6. Self-heating hot pot cannot be brought on board or checked in.
