Chopsticks can be divided into traditional wooden chopsticks, bamboo chopsticks, plastic chopsticks, metal chopsticks, ivory chopsticks, and ceramic chopsticks.
(1) Traditional wooden chopsticks: natural wood chopsticks are non-toxic and harmless, but in many cases, the outer layer of wooden chopsticks will be painted with paint. The paint contains heavy metal lead and organic solvent benzene and other carcinogens. Enter the human body with food and endanger human health.
(2) Bamboo chopsticks: The chopsticks made of bamboo are non-toxic and harmless, very environmentally friendly, not easy to clean, and have strong water absorption and adsorption. There are often residual detergents, which are easily contaminated by pathogenic microorganisms, so it should be noted. Always disinfect and keep clean.
(3) Plastic chopsticks: The texture is brittle, and it is easily deformed and melted after being heated, and produces substances harmful to the human body.
(4) Metal chopsticks: The use of silver, stainless steel and other metal chopsticks is too heavy, the hand feel is not good, and the thermal conductivity is strong. When eating overheated food, it is easy to burn the mouth. The use of inferior metal chopsticks may cause serious damage to human health. The use of titanium chopsticks is non-toxic, easy to clean, and lighter than stainless steel and silver chopsticks.
