It is good that the government reacts and arrests all the crooks, still a lot of better than some country that eating too much preservative, while it needs its own civilian to reveal the truth, LMAO.
I don't see anything wrong with preservatives, food preservation has been very important technology since antiquity.
The misconception that if a food does not rot/spoiled for years -> full of preservatives -> bad for health is just plainly absurd.
If you look at the video, the hamburger had been dehydrated thoroughly, of course it won't spoiled. Raw rice and every single cereals is preserved exactly by dehydrating it to dryness, making it possible to be stored for years without spoilage.It won't rot, but the taste might be degraded if you keep them for 14 years~ LOL
Salt, fat, sugar, alcohol, and acid is another preservatives; my salted fish and eggs still taste good after one year of storage; my sugar crystal doesn't goes bad despite storing it for years; wine has been enjoyed highly especially those which had been stored for hundreds of years!; Bee Cheng Hiang (美珍香
has been for decades selling pork jerky that won't even spoiled!
Please don't tell me "but it is chemical preservatives that is bad", Keep in mind, sugar (C6H12O6), salt (NaCl), alcohol (CH3CH2OH), and acid are all chemicals themselves~ a lot of chemical preservatives in processed food actually derived from its natural counterpart and has been shown to be safe for consumption. Examples includes benzoate (found in berries), acetate (vinegar), citrate (lemon and citrus), propanoate (produce naturally in human body); The problem is which chemicals is used for preservation. In developing countries like China, India, and Indonesia, they might use harmful chemicals; but I don't think that is the case in US and Europe that have strict food safety standard.
The fact that those hamburger is still preserved for 14 years shown the success of preservation technology. The combination of high fat, grease and salt content as in typical hamburger combined with dehydration makes it perfectly preserved. In fact, you could preserved any food just like that hamburger; of course taste will be a different matter.
