Chapter 120: Spreading Falsehood
The young police officer was very unhappy when he heard Fang Yu say such categorical words, and couldn't help but refuge:
"Are you a little too crazy, I admit that your dishes are indeed good, but this is a case, not a cooking.
Except for me, all of you here are veteran policemen who have been working for more than ten years. Don't look at it as a woman, Director Li has also worked in the criminal police team and has made great contributions.
So many policemen think that Zhen Panpan died of food poisoning, why should you question everyone's judgment as a little chef. ”
The young policeman said all his thoughts in one breath, and by the way, he also patted Li Shuhan's ass a little, and looked at Fang Yu's answer with some pride.
Fang Yu shrugged his shoulders lightly and said, "Why? Just because I'm a chef, I definitely don't know as much about food pairings as I do here.
Eating dog meat with eel may be a little dry, and may even make some people with special constitutions feel a little uncomfortable, but it is unlikely to produce any lethal poison in any case. ”
"How is that possible!" The young police officer immediately retorted:
"Annette Li showed us her food list, which is indeed written. Zhen Panpan ate the dog meat roasted eel she made, didn't she die too? ”
Fang Yu spread his hands and said with a smile: "I'm just telling the truth, anyway, dog meat and eel will definitely not eat the dead." As for the cause of Zhen Panpan's death, I am not a policeman, and I did not go to the scene to investigate, how can I know. ”
"You..." The young policeman was a little angry when he saw Fang Yu's lazy clothes, and wanted to stand up and argue with Fang Yu, but was pressed down by Li Shuhan on the shoulder.
"Fang Yu, I believe what you said." Li Shuhan said to Fang Yu with a straight face: "But can you explain to us why?" ”
Seeing Li Shuhan's serious request, Fang Yu also put away his expression just now and replied seriously:
"In fact, most of the folk sayings that dog meat and eel will be poisoned are false.
We all know that although our ancestors created a brilliant ancient civilization, they were not omnipotent, otherwise there would be no feudal superstition.
This dog meat is said in medical books to be able to 'warm the fire and help the yang', while the yellow eel is 'sweet and warm, and the sexual heat can replenish it'. Therefore, ancient people would think that eating these two things together was too warm and easy to get sick.
In fact, unless the body is already hot or weak, the average person who eats these two things together, although it may not be very good, but it will definitely not have such a terrible reaction as poisoning. ”
"That means the food table is wrong? Why is it still printed and sold. An elderly officer said with suspicion.
Fang Yu immediately answered his question: "You all know that in fact, our traditional Chinese medicine is largely an empirical medicine.
That is, many therapies and prescriptions are established and modified through practical examples.
In this way, there may be some misunderstandings for specific and special reasons.
For example, persimmons and crabs that we hear about most often cannot be eaten together, otherwise they may die. Actually, there is no such thing at all.
In the past, there were cases where it was dangerous to eat persimmons and crabs at the same time, and it must be because the person ate astringent persimmons, and if it was cooked, there would be no problem. ”
"Persimmon is persimmon, what difference does it make if it is ripe or not?" The young police officer retorted unconvinced.
Fang Yu smiled: "It's really different. Unripe astringent persimmons contain a lot of tannins, which are generally more than forty times higher than ripe.
Tannins cause proteins to form insoluble complexes and inactivate pepsin. In addition, other ingredients such as pectin and dietary fiber in persimmons may form "stomach persimmon stones" when mixed together, causing blockage of the digestive tract and causing abdominal pain.
So don't say that astringent persimmons are eaten with things like crabs, and it is not suitable to eat them with anything other high-protein.
But cooked is basically fine. However, even so, it is recommended not to eat too much. After all, both things are relatively cold, and it is easy to have stomach aches and diarrhea after eating too much. ”
"According to you, that food table isn't entirely wrong."
Fang Yu nodded and agreed: "Yes." Like you said, you can't say that everything on that watch is wrong.
For example, many food tables say that shrimp and vitamin C-rich foods can be poisoned when eaten together. The reason is that shrimp contains the highly toxic element 'arsenic'.
Under normal circumstances, the 'arsenic' in shrimp is a pentavalent compound and has no toxicity. However, once pentavalent arsenic encounters vitamin C, it will be converted into highly toxic trivalent arsenic, which is arsenic. ”
"Ahh No way? Li Shuhan heard Fang Yu say this and said suspiciously: "I have eaten their classic dish lemon shrimp in a Siamese restaurant, how come I am not poisoned?" ”
Fang Yu smiled: "It's not surprising at all, in fact, not only shrimp, most seafood contains some organic arsenic, but because the content is too low, it will be metabolized by our body soon, and there is no chance to react with vitamin C."
Actually, it doesn't matter if there is a reaction.
You must know that even arsenic must be eaten in a certain amount before it is fatal.
If you really have to rely on the reaction of shrimp and vitamin C to make arsenic to poison people, it is estimated that you have to eat more than 100 catties of shrimp at one time.
So if you hear that shrimp and vitamin C eat people to death, they must not have been poisoned. ”
"Oh, how did that die?" Li Shuhan saw that Fang Yu had stopped, so he asked.
Fang Yu touched his stomach and said, "It's not simple, I'll be strung to death." ”
The police officers listened amusefully and laughed.
Seeing that the time was not early, Li Shuhan took the police officers to say goodbye and left, Fang Yu and Lin Xiaoxiao cleaned up the noodle restaurant together, and went back to rest.
The next day, Fang Yu received a call from Wang Jinrong after breakfast.
It turned out that the International Tourism Trade Expo was about to be held, and Wang Jinrong had informed Fang Yu that he would arrange a booth for Fang Yu's noodle restaurant in the food exhibition area of the Expo.
Today, he called to inform Fang Yu to find an opportunity to go to the exhibition hall and set a plan for the booth and decoration.
Fang Yu agreed, but it was a little difficult to put down the phone.
Participating in the expo is certainly a rare opportunity to expand your reputation.
However, according to the habit of general exhibitions, during the period of the exhibition, if you want to sit in the exhibition, the noodle restaurant will be closed directly.
Chang Xiude has been trying all kinds of ways to get Fang Yu to close the door, but Wang Jinrong has successfully achieved the benefits he has won for Fang Yu. I don't know what Chang Xiude's expression will be when he hears the news.
Fang Yu thought about it for a moment and decided that he should find a way to solve the problem today.
Fang Yu and Lin Xiaoxiao explained, and then went out alone to Lanfei Vocational and Technical School.
Along the long corridor of the school dormitory building, Fang Yu came to the dormitory of Qian Duoduo and Qi Yi.
Qi Yi, who was lying on the bottom bunk bed and playing a ranking battle with his mobile phone, saw Fang Yu coming, and hurriedly pushed Qian Duoduo, who was sitting on the side in a daze, "Duoduo, don't be in a daze, Brother Fang is here." ”
