ICE Cube Contain more bacteria than Water from the toilet bowl
ICE Cube Contain more bacteria than Water from the toilet bowl
Hello readers...
A quick question,
You’d think toilets were full of bacteria, right?
If your answer is YES, then youre wrong!
The fact is that 70% of the time, THE ICE HAS MORE BACTERIA THAN TOILET WATER!
Well here is the fact, 12-year-old Jasmine Roberts, a smart 7th grade student in Tampa, Florida hit upon a startling discovery as part of her winning science fair project. She compared the ice used in sodas and other drinks with the water from the toilet bowls in the same fast food restaurants. She was shocked by the results. The ice served in soft drinks and other beverages at fast food restaurants had more bacteria than water from the same restaurant’s toilet! Not only that, but 70 percent of the time, the ice had more bacteria than the toilet water. Jasmine had the water tested at a lab at the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center, where she volunteers with a USF professor. Ice in three of the five restaurants tested positive for fecal coliform or E. coli, organisms that come from the feces of warmblooded animals!
As the Tampa newspaper pointed out, symptoms, “related to the presence of coliform include cramps and diarrhea. E. coli can cause intestinal illness and, in rare cases, hemolytic uremic syndrome, a serious kidney condition.”
But, even though this is the fact found in the Florida, US. Im not sure whether this fact is applicable to be applied here in MALAYSIA. Are Malaysian ICE Cube sold are contains less bacteria? Im not sure or maybe some Malaysian scientist can do a scientific research to proof this. Or maybe there is myth buster Malaysian can prove this whether it is a myth or fact!. Go Malaysian..
