The international symbol of British cuisine - fish and chips, wrapped in paper - may never be the same again The industry associated with the national delicacy is facing increasing pressure to reduce environmental pollution caused by its discarded packaging

An estimated 3.6 billion containers for take-away British chips and their continental cousins, French fnes and pomfiites, are thrown away each year Apart from conventional paper wrapping, it is e'stimated that almost one billion plastic and cardboard plates are dumped each year in Britain alone after fish and chip lovers

Later this month, a new product will be launched which, its manufacturers claim, will help reduce the 22,000 tons of European paper associated with the food The new product, an edible chip cone, is biodegradable and, say its makers, even tastes like a chip Fast food shops will now be able to serve portions in the new cone, which can be eaten itself, after its contents have been consumed, therefore Ieaving no litter

The Dutch manufacturers, Viko, point out that if people prefer not to eat the product, they can throw it in a litter bin where it will decompose naturally within a few days

The new cone - approximately 10 inches high, the right size for a medium portion

of chips - is made from powdered potato, wheat flour, vegetable oil and salt The

56 bin 60:

Most food poisoning is caused by five groups of bacteria - carnpylobacter, Salmonella, clostridium, Listeria andp Staphylococcus Even small numbers of Salmonella cells can cause food pois~ning, but other types of bacteria have to be present in large numbers before they make food dangerous In other words, they have been allowed to grow and multiply for a sufficiently long time to produce large numbers of cells

If Salmonella and Listeria are to cause problems, living cells of the bacteria have to be present in the food when it is eaten Normal, but thorough, cooking should destroy these cells and render them harmless

Staphylococci are different because they produce toxin when they are growing Even though cooking may destroy the bacteria cells, it is unlikely to inactivate the toxin

Food producers do their best to make sure that food is not contaminated with any

food-poisoning organisms But if some should be in food, the maintenance of a cold

temperature can do a lot to minimize growth and therefore the risk of food poisoning

A A large number of cells are needed to poison you

IS The cells take a long time to grow and multiply

C The cells are destroyed by thorough cooking

D The poison is not destroyed by cooking

Clu hbi 59: How does refrigeration help to reduce the risk of poisoning?

A It prevents new bacteria entering the food B It stops the bacteria growing any more

C It makes bacteria grow more slowly D It kills bacteria that are in the food

A How bacteria multiply B How food poisoning is caused
