Many people buy metal or porcelain for a festive feast, and for everyday use use more simple options. Cheap products are imported from Jordan, Turkey and China. Often among them comes melamine dishes. Beautiful and comfortable in everyday life, it poses a huge danger to our health.
Poison in the plate
Officially melamine dishes on the territory of the Russian Federation as food utensils are prohibited. This is due to the fact that it contains an insidious polymer. When a person acquires it, melamine is "sewn up." But if you pour liquid in such dishes, for example, ordinary water, then formaldehyde starts to be released immediately, which dissolves perfectly in the contents of the plate. It takes about a month, and melamine dishes (photo below) are covered with small microcracks, in which small particles of food begin to get stuck.
How to recognize the danger in time
To learn melamine dishes it is possible on the following grounds: it possesses small weight, does not beat, it is easy to wash. The appearance of such utensils is somewhat reminiscent of French utensils made of special domestic glass (arcopal, arcoros). Compared with porcelain or glass, it is noticeably lighter. If you knock on it with a wooden object, you will hear a crackling, deaf, "dead" sound. Usually has milky white color. Unfortunately, even melamine dishes for children are now on the shelves. Unscrupulous manufacturers successfully use bright bears, hedgehogs and flowers to increase their sales volumes. But if you look closely, the cartoon drawings are applied without any protective layer, and on the back side comes the stamp "melamin". However, such a warning may simply be absent. It is frightening that sellers themselves sometimes do not know which "gin" is hidden in the assortment of their goods. The state, of course, is struggling with this, but it is not worthwhile to rely on the vigilance of the relevant authorities, knowing what kind of resourcefulness entrepreneurs can show. Therefore, we recommend that you take the utmost care when choosing household items.
