Is the time in which foodstuffs get spoiled different in different seasons?
उत्तर
Spoiling of foodstuffs is dependent on the temperature and humidity of the surroundings. Food spoilage is rapid when the surrounding temperature and humidity are higher. If the surrounding air is dry and cool, the food spoilage is not immediate. Thus, the foodstuffs take different time for spoilage in different seasons. In the summer season, food may spoil rapidly but not so during the winter.
