Heyy friend I'm also from Lucknow and I study in SETH MR Jaipuria School, Goel Campus.
Certainly! Here are three imaginary food products along with real preservatives that could be used in them:
Name of the Product:
A: Crunchy Granola Bars
B: Creamy Tomato Pasta Sauce
C: Soft Baked Chocolate Chip Cookies
Preservatives Used:
A: Tocopherols (a form of vitamin E)
B: Citric acid
C: Sodium metabisulfite
a. Why preservatives are added to food products?
Preservatives are added to food products for several reasons, including:
1. Extending shelf life by inhibiting microbial growth and preventing spoilage.
2. Maintaining freshness, flavor, and texture over time.
3. Enhancing food safety by reducing the risk of foodborne illnesses.
4. Allowing for wider distribution and availability of products.
b. What will happen if you add the same preservatives in all three (A, B & C) products?
If the same preservatives (tocopherols) were added to all three products (A, B, and C), the following could be expected:
1. Extended shelf life for all three products, preventing rancidity in the granola bars, maintaining the quality of the pasta sauce, and preserving the freshness of the cookies.
2. The preservative would act as an antioxidant, helping to protect the products from deterioration caused by exposure to air and light.
3. The taste, flavor, and texture of each product would remain relatively unaffected, as tocopherols are typically odorless and tasteless at low concentrations.
4. It's important to note that the specific concentration and interaction with other ingredients would play a role in the overall effect of the preservative.
