 The Five Fruits You Should Be Washing Before Eating 吃之前应该洗的五种水果 By Karyn Bailey︱Feb. Do you really need to wash thick-skinned fruits like avocados before eating them? According to the FDA yes! 你真的需要在吃之前把厚皮的水果比如牛油果洗干净吗？根据FDA的说法，是的！ avocados：牛油果 You probably already rinse thin-skinned fruits and vegetables like tomatoes, berries, and cucumbers before digging in, but what about produce with thicker skins? If you're anything like us, you likely thought it was safe to just peel a banana before eating it, or scoop the flesh out of an avocado before making into your beloved avocado toast. But according to a recent FDA report, you could be putting yourself at risk for contracting listeria and other food-borne illness if you don't rinse the skins of fruits like avocados and lemons before enjoying them. 你可能已经把薄皮的水果和蔬菜，比如西红柿、浆果和黄瓜，在切开之前冲洗干净了，但是有厚皮的果蔬呢？如果你和我们一样，你可能认为在吃香蕉之前剥香蕉皮就安全了，或者在做你心爱的牛油果吐司之前先把牛油果的肉挖出来就可以了。但根据美国食品和药物管理局（FDA）最近的一份报告，如果你不在享用它们之前清洗牛油果和柠檬等水果的外皮，你可能会面临感染李斯特菌和其他食源性疾病的风险。 peel：剥皮 rinse：漂洗 About a month ago, the FDA released the results of a 2014-2016 study where they tested the skins of 361 imported and domestic avocado skins for listeria monocytogenes. 64 of the avocado skins tested positive for listeria. Listeria is a food-borne illness pregnant women are often warned about, but the general public isn't really familiar with. It's a bacteria known to cause miscarriages, stillbirths, uterine infections, and preterm delivery. Listeria can also be found in deli meats, which is why women who are expecting are warned to stay away from delicious cold turkey sandwiches for 9 months. 大约一个月前，FDA发布了一项2014-2016年的研究结果，他们测试了361种进口和国产牛油果皮的单核细胞李斯特菌。64份的检测呈李斯特菌阳性。李斯特菌是一种食源性疾病，是经常警告孕妇要避免的，但一般公众并不真正熟悉它。这是一种细菌，已知会导致流产、死胎、子宫感染和早产。李斯特菌也可以在熟食肉类中找到，这就是为什么那些待产的女性被警告9个月不要吃美味的冷火鸡肉三明治的原因。 listeria：李斯特菌，也称作李氏杆菌 monocytogenes：单核细胞增多症 Although the percentage of listeria found on avocado skins was relatively low in the FDA's study, you don't want to risk ingesting this deadly bacteria. Aside from causing pregnancy-related complications, listeria also causes about 1,600 illness and 260 death a year. And it isn't just listeria that's potentially contaminating thick-skinned fruits. Bacteria like e-coli and salmonella can also be present. 虽然在FDA的研究中，牛油果皮上发现的李斯特菌比例相对较低，但没人想冒险摄入这种致命的细菌。它除了能引起妊娠相关并发症外，李斯特菌每年还会导致1600种疾病和260人死亡。厚皮水果不仅有可能污染李斯特菌。也可能存在大肠杆菌和沙门氏菌等细菌。 ingesting：获取 The FDA is urging consumers to start washing their avocados before slicing, smashing, blending or even eating them whole. But it isn't just avocados you should be washing. Other thick-skinned fruits like lemons, melons, bananas, and grapefruit could also be carrying harmful bacteria. You might even want to rinse cans and jars before opening them. Bacteria could be lurking under the lids. FDA敦促消费者在对他们的牛油果切片、粉碎、混合甚至整个食用之前就清洗它们。但你不应该只洗牛油果。其他厚皮水果，如柠檬、甜瓜、香蕉和西柚，也可能携带有害细菌。你甚至可以在打开罐头食品之前冲洗罐头外表。细菌可能潜伏在盖子的缝里面。 lurking：潜伏 The best way to wash thick-skinned fruits? 清洗厚皮水果的最佳方法？ The FDA recommends washing your hands with a bar of soap and warm water for about 20 seconds and then gently scrubbing the outside of the fruit with water and a vegetable brush. We like this one with natural bristles. You can also scrub your fruit with a little bit of baking soda to help eliminate any lingering pesticides before rinsing. FDA建议用肥皂和温水洗手约20秒，然后用清水和蔬菜刷轻轻地擦洗水果的外部。我们喜欢用有天然鬃毛的刷子。你也可以用一点小苏打擦洗你的水果，以帮助在清洗前消除残留的农药。 scrubbing：刷洗 bristles：猪鬃 5 Fruits to Remember to Wash Before Eating 5种吃前要记得清洗水果 Avocados 牛油果 Lemons 柠檬 Melons 瓜类 Bananas 香蕉 Grapefruit 西柚 👇 |
