Food waste occurs daily in every household.
If this food waste is left at room temperature, it will rot and produce a strong odor.
It is often stored in the freezer.
Are these behaviors problematic?
Many people keep food waste in the freezer.
I think I can escape from bacterial growth, but
This is not true.
First, food poisoning bacteria and mold bacteria
Although it ceases activity at low temperatures
This is not extinction but
It is only a temporary pause in activity.
Additionally, due to the characteristic of freezers gradually lowering in temperature
On the contrary, bacteria can proliferate,
Active even in cold environments
Because "psychrophilic bacteria" may also exist.
And the plastic bag tore due to the frozen, solidified food.
Bacteria are escaping through the torn plastic.
There is also a possibility that the entire freezer could be contaminated with bacteria.
Therefore, because of the foul odor coming from food waste
If you're worried about leaving food waste at room temperature
Place baking soda at the bottom of the bag to absorb food residues.
It is more appropriate to prevent acidification and reduce odors.
