Question

Differentiate between perishable and non-perishable foods.

Answer 1

Perishable foods: 

1. Perishable goods spoil quickly and require refrigeration (e.g., milk, meat, fruits).
2. Perishable foods are susceptible to bacterial growth, requiring proper storage.

Non-perishable foods:

1. Non-perishable foods have a long shelf life and can be stored at room temperature (for example, rice and canned products).
2. Non-perishable foods are processed to increase shelf life and prevent spoilage.
