- SUGAR CANE JUICE
A friend whose father works for the government health inspection
passed on his info. Their job is to inspect all hawkers, their cooked
food, their store hygiene, etc. They found sugar cane juice has the
highest content of bacteria among all food. In fact, it has exceeded
the set limit.
Hence, these guys had to find out why. They went round all sugar cane
stores and watched the way the hawkers handled their sugar cane, wash
their glasses, their entire procedure.
But they couldn't find the problem.
One day, they stayed till closing time and discovered some shocking
facts! Whenever, the hawkers closed their stores, they would wash the
floor with detergent.
As we know, the remainingsugar canes will be placed at the back of the
store, vertically standing and as sugar canes are very porous, they
tend to absorb whatever liquid around them.
Besides the soapy water, the dirt on hawkers' boots, cats' urine, etc,
will all be absorbed??
Now, whenever I eat at a hawker centre, I would warn all my friends
about this and of course, I stopped drinking my favourite sugar cane
juice.
A friend, who loved sugar cane juice, was pregnant. She was always
drinking sugar cane juice. Anyway, one day she miscarried andthe fetus
was already like 6or 7 months old, I think. When the doctors did an
autopsy to find out why allof a sudden the fetus had died inside her,
they found traces of some chemical substance, which was found in cat
urine... Large traces of it.
While it would not be able to harm adults, it was extremely toxic to
babies, what more a fetus? So theytried to determine how this cat
urine thing could have ended up in the fetus.
This meant that it had to be digested by the mother,right? And the
only logical conclusion they could comeup with was that since these
sugar cane juice stall holders just leave the caneslying around on the
wet and dirty floor, it would not be impossible to think that stray
cats could have peed on those sugar canes or near those sugar canes.
So think carefully the next time you order that favourite sugar cane juice!
Please pass this on to everyone you know. Got this info from Govt. Health Dept.
Let's take action to make this world a better & safer place for ALL of
us & the generations to come/
