1. Buy less cooked food that is too cheap

 

The price of cooked food is indeed a little high, in our small city of cooked food for example, cooked pig liver to 19 yuan a catty, marinated chicken leg to 20 yuan a catty, and the cost is only seven or eight dollars, this profit margin is very considerable. It can be inferred that the price of cooked food is at least twice as high as that of our own production. Therefore, when we see meat in the deli that is cheaper than our own meat, we must be careful to buy it. Remember to buy sauce beef before the New Year, some only sell fifty or sixty dollars a catty, there is no difference in appearance, we do it at home and the cost of fifty or sixty, so cheap cooked food is not meat is not fresh, there are other reasons.

 

 

2.Buy less cooked food from mobile stalls

 

Cooked food is processed and stored at room temperature for a few hours may begin to breed bacteria, so be sure to choose fresh cooked food when you buy it. Generally speaking, the management of the cooked food area in the supermarket is more strict, basically there is no problem of deterioration and expiration, the fixed delicatessen is second, and the mobile stall is the worst. The cost of cooked food is very high, even if it is not very fresh, individual mobile stalls may continue to insist on selling out and minimize their losses. Supermarkets and fixed delicatessens have a certain after-sales service, which provides protection when problems arise, while mobile delicatessens may change places frequently and are very difficult to find. In addition, the purchasing and processing links of the mobile booth lack sufficient management.

 

3.Avoid buying unnaturally colored cooked food

 

When choosing cooked food, most people are "appearance association", see the color of red pig head meat, sauce beef, will be greedy saliva, in fact, this is not the normal color of the ingredients. Even with the addition of natural toners such as sugar color and red yeast rice, it is difficult to make such a bright red cooked food. Such cooked food does not exclude some bad operators in which to add additives such as nitrate or carmine, these additives can not be excessive intake, otherwise it may be harmful to the body. In addition, there are some color too white beef tendons, cattle water, tripe, lamb, sheep intestines, a look is very abnormal, it is recommended to buy less, it is likely to add alkali, both "whitening" effect, and "weight gain" effect.

 

 

4.Buy less prepared food

 

Platter smoked sauce is one of the favorite dishes for drinking friends to eat, as a few whole, spell into a plate, eat not greasy and not single. When there is demand, there is supply, and many delis have launched ready-made cooked food platters, which look delicious and affordable, and many people love to buy. But it is recommended to buy less of this type of cooked food, when we buy a whole piece of cooked food, the boss who is more fastidious will cut off the bad parts, and these parts are likely to be made into a cooked food platter, and the quality is not visible after cutting into pieces.

 

5. Buy less cheap chickens and ducks

 

Since ancient times, chicken and duck is a dish. The taste of chicken and duck is good and the nutrition is rich. Deli has a lot of roast chicken, roast duck, the price is very cheap, as long as more than 20 yuan a, whether it is appearance, or taste, and the hotel hundreds of dollars of the same. But such cheap cooked food, behind the cheaper raw materials, these chickens and ducks are mostly fast or frozen goods, rural chickens and ducks to grow up for several months, and these fast food eat feed, 20 or 30 days can grow up, the nutritional composition is much worse.

 

6.Buy less stale cooked food

 

Most of the cooked food in the deli is placed on the platform, and there is not too much refrigeration and preservation measures, so once it is not sold out, it is very easy to deteriorate. When you buy cooked food, you must smell the cooked food has no odor, the surface has no mucus, the color has no luster, if there are such problems, it is recommended that how cheap do not buy. In addition, buy less cooked food with more additives, such as fried chicken, fried chicken racks, fried chicken pieces, fried chicken fillets, fried lotus root, etc., although delicious, it should be controlled the number of meals.
