A new study has shown that harmful microbes can accumulate in one place in the kitchen. And you definitely forget about it when you clean up the kitchen.

A stand with spice jars can be dangerous for your health. The fact is that, as a recent study has shown, a large number of microbes can accumulate on it, which then cause diseases.

An article published in the Journal of Food Protection based on the results of the study notes that spice jars can cause the spread of diseases. The reason for this is that they contribute to cross-contamination, that is, when microbes are transferred from one place or substance to another.

In addition, scientists found that spice jars were contaminated in almost 50% of cases. But in other places in the kitchen, contamination was found in less than 20% of cases.

It turns out that any spice jar that you touch while preparing raw meat can be cross-contaminated. You need to remember this after cooking too.

The dirtiest items in the kitchen are spice jars. In addition to them, refrigerator handles, cutting boards, and garbage can lids are dangerous in terms of contamination.
