Microorganisms and Food Spoilage
Microorganisms like fungi and bacteria are responsible for the spoilage of various foodstuffs, including bread. The main conditions required for the growth of these microorganisms are moderately warm temperature, air, and moisture. These microorganisms often produce poisonous substances, which make food unfit for consumption. Eating such foodstuffs can cause an illness called food poisoning.
Here are a few things that can help us detect food that has become unfit for consumption because of microbial action: foul odour, slimy surface or cotton-like growth on the surface, surface discoloration, sour taste, and gas formation.
