Have you ever thought of the way the disposable-colored dishes we use at our birthdays and parties can contaminate food?
Or what toxic substances might enter our bodies from the colored ceramic mugs when drinking tea and coffee or from the traditional bowls and stoneware crock (Dizi) during eating broth?
In the chemical colors found in some dishes, there are heavy metals that can be transferred to food and contaminate them, especially when hot food is poured into them.
It is interesting to know that from the green color used in dishes, heavy metals such as nickel, lead and chromium, from the red, white and black colors, heavy metals such as lead and cadmium, and from the turquoise and carbon blue colors, a large amount of lead can be transferred to food.
Monitoring the manufacture of dishes and using colors free from chemicals harmful to human health can help solving this problem.
