Stainless steel chopsticks

Speaking of the advantages of stainless steel chopsticks, we can list a lot. The stainless steel chopsticks have a smooth surface and a good hand feels, which is silver-white and gives a sense of calmness. And compared to wooden chopsticks, it is easier to clean and dry, not easy to mold, and the risk of bacterial residue breeding is much smaller than wooden chopsticks.

However, because it is made of metal, it is easy for the public to think about whether the long-term use of stainless steel chopsticks will cause people to overweight metal. In fact, the general stainless steel is composed of iron, chromium, nickel, and other ingredients. We use stainless steel chopsticks to eat. We must see whether it is food-grade stainless steel. Food grade stainless steel can be used as a tableware box food packaging shell, etc., according to current scientific research is not harmful to the human body.

However, the general stainless steel chopsticks are made of 200 series. This kind of steel is not in the national standard and contains heavy metals. Domestic large-scale stainless steel producers Baosteel and Taigang will not produce this kind of steel inner quality. It is not possible to purchase high-cost stainless steel materials from manufacturers such as Taigang and Baosteel. Therefore, stainless steel chopsticks that are not marked with manufacturers and other information must be unqualified. It is recommended not to buy them.

Long-term use of inferior stainless steel chopsticks will destroy the normal calcium-phosphorus ratio in the human body, affect the growth and metabolism of human bones, teeth, and also affect the activity of human digestive enzymes, weakening the stomach function.

Can stainless steel chopsticks be used for a long time?

Stainless steel chopsticks and bamboo chopsticks have their own advantages and disadvantages. The advantage of stainless steel chopsticks is that it is not easy to leave food residue, it is not easy to breed bacteria, and it is easy to clean. The disadvantage is that the feel is not good, it is a bit heavy, and the thermal conductivity is too strong; the advantage of bamboo chopsticks is that it is easy to use, light to pick up, and has low thermal conductivity. The disadvantage is that it is easy to leave food residues, which will wear and crack after a long time.

Everyone's focus is different, so the choice will be different. When buying stainless steel chopsticks, you must buy qualified products that meet national standards. Many stainless steel basins and lunch boxes now use 304 food-grade stainless steel. Remember not to buy products with unknown numbers and unknown materials to prevent harm to health!

If you use stainless steel chopsticks for a long time, then you have to accept the shortcomings mentioned above, and it also has strong thermal conductivity, and it may be hot to grip a hot dish. When encountering foods with strong acid or alkali, try not to use stainless steel chopsticks. After each use, brush it to dry, and use it for disinfection regularly.
