Did you know that there are a thousand monkeys living in disposable chopsticks?

There are a thousand monkeys living in disposable chopsticks. What, are you kidding? There are monkeys living in the chopsticks, are you kidding? The monkeys I am talking about are not those monkeys. It is these monkeys that allow the sulfur and hydrogen peroxide to be retained in the chopsticks for a long time.

First, break the disposable chopsticks.

How about it? Did you see it? This is a photo of bamboo magnified fifty times.

The monkey's eyes and nose are clearly visible! (Wukong thinks it looks more like a skull!)

OK, let's get closer to the red circle. Can you see it clearly now?

When sulfur is fumigated or hydrogen peroxide is sprayed during the manufacturing process,

These substances will remain in the eyes and noses of these monkeys.

It is released only when you use chopsticks to eat.

Hey, how are you doing? Can you still hold on? Let's see what scary things we found:

1. Disposable chopsticks will become extremely smelly after being soaked in water for a week;

2. When you grow mung beans in this smelly acidic water, not only will the germination speed be slow, but the beans will stop growing when they grow to five or six centimeters and eventually die. This shows that the acidic substances contained in disposable chopsticks are harmful.

3. Collect the smoke from burning chopsticks and test it with test paper. The result shows that it is highly acidic. If it is released into the air, it will definitely affect people's health.

4. Bamboo chopsticks are full of sulfur dioxide. Avoid using disposable chopsticks that are too white, because wood or bamboo has its original color. Disposable chopsticks that are too white should be over-bleached.

5. It is advisable to soak the chopsticks in hot water first. The longer the time, the more sulfur dioxide is released. When stirring soup, because there is more contact surface between hot water and chopsticks, more sulfur dioxide is released than when picking up dry food. It is best not to soak disposable chopsticks in hot pot or soup.

What might happen if you use disposable chopsticks?

Damage to respiratory function: Disposable chopsticks must be fumigated with sulfur during production, so when they are exposed to heat during use, they will release sulfur dioxide, which will corrode the respiratory mucosa;

Damage to digestive function: Disposable chopsticks are bleached with hydrogen peroxide during the production process. Hydrogen peroxide is highly corrosive and can corrode the mouth, esophagus, and even the stomach. Talcum powder is used during the grinding process, which is not clean and slowly accumulates in the human body, causing gallstones.

Bacterial infection: The shelf life of sterilized disposable chopsticks is up to 4 months. Once the shelf life is exceeded, they are likely to carry Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and hepatitis.

In addition, if ordinary people consume too much sulfite, it may cause breathing difficulties, vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms. Sulfite will combine with calcium in the human body and may cause bone loss. Some people with special physical conditions cannot absorb sulfite.

Sulfur converts acid salts into sulfates. Excessive intake may cause allergic reactions of varying degrees, inducing asthma or breathing difficulties. In addition, sulfur contains heavy metals such as lead and mercury. Heavy metals can

If accumulated for a long time, it will cause lead poisoning or mercury poisoning. Some people even get lymph node cancer.
