What happen to the bacteria when food is cooked and when food is chilled?
HalimaKatalagp4459
Cooking kills bacteria but not the toxins the bacteria made while growing. Refrigeration does prevent most bacteria but not listeria which can grow in a refrigerator. Botulism is a toxin that does not go away with boiling or cooking.
