🐟 Seafood doesn’t have a long shelf life, so it’s crucial to handle it properly to prevent spoilage and reduce #FoodWaste.
⚠️ And remember: just like chicken, don’t rinse #seafood before cooking. It can spread bacteria around your kitchen.

Your toothbrush is bristling with bacteria - is it time to change it?
Bacteria from our toilets, the cold sore virus and thrush-causing yeast can thrive on our toothbrushes. But there are ways to keep your toothbrush a little cleaner.
A pilot trial published in Applied Microbiology and cited by BBC Future finds that toothpaste containing S. salivarius M18 probiotic could improve the oral microbiome, even after stopping use.
