1. When the pointer of the material testing machine swings slightly, stop stretching the towel immediately. The association investigated the napkins in some supermarkets and farmers' markets in Tianjin, Beijing and Tangshan, and found that the napkins in restaurants were unqualified. The main problem was that the manufacturers used waste paper in the production process. In order to cover up impurities and whiten, toxic fluorescent brighteners and industrial talc powder were added, which were potential carcinogenic factors. If the color of the napkin is dim and rough, the paper is hard, and there are scraps of paper falling, you must not wipe your mouth with it, and colored or patterned napkins should also be avoided

2. Disinfect wipes. At present, there are two problems in some disinfectant wipes on the market, one is that the bacteria exceed the standard, and the other is to add fluorescent brighteners, industrial essence and other substances. Therefore, when buying wet paper towels, you must see the logo, production enterprise, expiration date, etc. it is best for infants and young children to use less

PVC fresh-keeping film contains plasticizer, which is listed as a restricted category by the state, and it is stipulated that meat, cooked food and fatty food cannot be directly packaged. However, the investigation found that there are many phenomena of wrapping food with it in supermarkets. Therefore, it is suggested to tear off the plastic wrap after buying cooked food from the supermarket and put it in other tableware. When buying fresh-keeping film, note that the yellow ones are PVC materials, and the white ones are qualified PE materials

6. Color straw. The survey found that the straws on small restaurants, beverage stores and Breakfast stalls are all three no products. The brighter the color, the greater the potential safety hazards

7. Stainless steel tableware. Cutting corners and excessive heavy metals have become the main problems of stainless steel tableware. Because it is made of iron, chromium, nickel and other heavy metals, it is easy to rust after long-term contact with acid and alkali substances, so this seasoning is rarely used. In addition, when purchasing stainless steel pots and pans, you should pay attention to the words 188. The larger the number, the stronger the rust prevention ability of the product and the better the performance
