前不久记得有人在网上贴了动车上盒饭的新闻,好多人不信有这样的东西,或者觉得一
定是用了大量防腐剂。 我个人不知道动车上的盒饭质量到底如何,但这样的食品绝对
是有的。美国不太找得到盒饭,但常见的牛奶,布丁还是随处可见的(不是冷冻,冷藏
的)。 我上个星期才在costco买的 high protein shake 就是 2012 八月到期。 下面
是USDA 网上的有关类似产品的信息。
What is an MRE?
MRE stands for "Meal, Ready-to-Eat." MRE's were originally designed for the
U.S. government and have been used since the 1970's in the U.S. space
program, U.S. military, and USDA's Forest Service. The MRE package is
officially known as a tri-laminate retort pouch. It contains normal food
that is ready to heat and consume, such as chili or beef stew.
Is an MRE shelf stable?
Yes. MRE's are shelf stable because they have been commercially sterilized
by heat in a sealed container to destroy bacteria that can make it unsafe or
spoil the food. Like food in metal cans, MRE's can be kept for a long time,
but not indefinitely. The shelf life is highly related to the storage
temperature. For example, if stored at 120 °F (a temperature that could be
encountered on desert battlefields), the MRE should be used within a month.
Stored at 60 °F, an MRE can last 7 years or more.
个人感觉现在中国人是集体的对政府不信任,对专家更是,铁道部的决定也有问题,其
实完全可以给一个详细的解释说明,这样换掉只能加剧大家的猜疑。 好不好吃另说,
按照国内的储存运输条件,这样的盒饭应该更安全。
