How safe is your food?

Food adulterants can endanger the normal functions of the body leading to serious health 
implications.

Quick tests to detect adulterants in your food




9.Honey - Molasses sugar - A cotton wick dipped in pure honey burn when ignited with a match   stick. If
                                           adulterated, presence of water will not allow 
                                      the honey to burn. If it does, it will produce a crackling sound.


Milk
milk slip test - Put a drop of milk on a polished vertical surface. If it stops or flows slowly, leaving a white trail behind, it is pure milk. Milk mixed with water or other agents will flow down immediately without a trace.

Reduction test - Boil some milk on a slow heat while moving it with a spoon till it becomes solid (khoya). Take it off the heat and wait for 2-3 hours. If the produced solid is oily, the milk is of good quality; if it's not, it means the milk is synthetic.
