With the incessant development of modern society, the pace of human life is ever faster. After a weary day at work, many avoid cooking and opt for dining out at restaurants.
While dining at a restaurant is undoubtedly more convenient, the flavors of home-cooked meals surpass those of restaurant fare. Despite the daily influx of patrons, most only care about taste, types of dishes, and prices, paying little attention to food safety and cleanliness.
There's a truth that in bustling restaurants, the handling and cleaning of ingredients become less meticulous. This is because the staff can't afford the time to thoroughly clean the ingredients before processing them according to requirements.
On the flip side, every business is concerned about profit, leading some restaurants to recklessly skip essential preparation steps to expedite the pace of food processing.
Food and food safety experts never endorse these two dishes when visiting a restaurant; some owners even boldly assert: “I wouldn't dare eat them.”
Sauteed snails
Sauteed snails with the shell intact are a popular choice, especially among snack enthusiasts. The prices of these dishes are reasonable, making them accessible to everyone. However, as we know, snails inhabit muddy environments, and particularly in times of environmental pollution, with water sources contaminated as they are today, snails are significantly affected.
To thoroughly clean snails, it takes a considerable amount of time, involving steps like soaking and scrubbing to ensure safety when stir-frying. However, in many busy establishments, there's little time to clean snails properly, both inside and outside the shell, resulting in a somewhat hasty process.
With whole-shell sauteed snails, we often suck out the sauce by ingesting the snail. Therefore, without proper cleaning and extraction, the snails we consume can be extremely dirty, possibly even containing parasites.
Hence, if we don't witness the snail handling process firsthand, it's advisable not to order this sauteed snail dish.
Sauteed pig intestines
Sauteed pig intestines are widely loved by patrons visiting the restaurant due to their delightful tenderness and distinctive aroma, making this part irresistible for many.
However, pig intestines are organ meat with a high fat content, and prolonged consumption may lead to increased blood fat levels. Additionally, pig intestines serve as the site for pig excretion, potentially harboring numerous bacteria. Without proper hygiene practices, it can affect human digestion when consuming.
Furthermore, many restaurants have careless and lazy processing steps, so it's not guaranteed that pig intestines are thoroughly cleaned before preparation. Therefore, before indulging in this grilled intestine dish, diners should think twice. If you don't order this sauteed intestine dish, the restaurant owner is likely to consider you a true 'culinary expert.'
