What food can't crab eat with

BY Berton Gladstone 2020-05-04

   Everyone who is attracted to my title, congratulations, you are indeed Chinese. Because Chinese people like taboos, there are all kinds of taboos in food, clothing, housing and transportation. Regardless of whether it makes sense or not, it is taboo first, and it is better to believe in it than not. There can be no scientific evidence, and ancestors'' legacy can''t be lost. I saw a lot of matching taboos about eating crabs on the Internet.

  An article quoted by the central government portal and noted from Xinhua News Agency said that crabs cannot be combined with eggplant, melon, persimmon, pear, loach, lamb, dog meat, tomatoes, citrus, hawthorn, lemon, etc. Eat at the same time. The reasons are: "The eggplant is cold in nature, the persimmon contains tannic acid, the melon can remove heat and laxative, the pear taste is slightly acidic, and the crab is also cold, and eating it hurts the spleen and stomach", "Loach, lamb, dog meat and other sexual flavors are warm and sweet, and eating with crabs will cause spleen and stomach dysfunction." This is really cold, not hot, cold (cold) hurts the spleen and stomach, hot (hot) causes spleen and stomach dysfunction, how is the reason for your family? What do you want to say? p>

   "Tomatoes, citrus, hawthorn, lemon and other foods rich in vitamin C will transform the''pentavalent arsenic compound'' contained in the crab itself into a''trivalent arsenic compound'' harmful to the human body, namely''arsenic'' ". Vitamin C is ubiquitous in vegetables and fruits. The claim that vitamin C in vegetables and fruits (lower amount) increases the toxicity of arsenic is unrealistic. This statement has been widely criticized and refuted (there are a large number of critical articles on the Internet), why is it still circulating, especially in the brains of some "health education experts"? How can they ignore those unreliable taboos? Forget it? Do they not go online? Do they not update their knowledge? Don’t use the brain to think about it?

   There are many similar taboos about eating crabs on the Internet, such as "don’t drink tea when eating crabs", "It is better not to have more than one meal" and so on. The common approach is to provide neither evidence nor justification. There is no such thing as love or unbelief, or the reason provided is obviously far-fetched and made up. It can''t stand the scrutiny, and the layman is still reluctant to make the layman laugh.

  Evidence! Please experts, before opening your mouth, please review the evidence. It’s enough to cover others, don’t even cover yourself!

  As for Chinese I am particularly keen on the "taboo" cultural tradition, so I will not say anything.
