Genetically modified oranges imported from Greece are offered on the markets in our country, Bulgaria Today warns. Citruses have added genes from pigs.
The size is the first by which Greek oranges can be recognized. At first glance, they even look like grapefruits, say saleswomen in front of the daily.
According to nutritionist Donka Baikova, genetically modified oranges can be dangerous to eat, causing allergic reactions. The expert recommends washing the fruits you buy well, even oranges and tangerines.
Washing will be useful if the citrus fruits are colored so that their appearance is more attractive to buyers.
Last year, the capital's shops were full of colored oranges, which turned out to be not only threatening our health, but could also kill us.
In appearance, citrus fruits were the typical orange color. Even their normal price for the season did not suggest that they could be very dangerous to eat.
However, when cut, the oranges flowed paint, which was poisonous. The citrus liquid was difficult to wash off, both from the human hand and from the knife with which the orange was cut, the newspaper Everyday wrote.
According to the price and origin plates, citrus fruits were imported from Greece and were offered as a product of proven high quality and certificate.
However, consumers only understood what they had bought when they returned home and wanted to eat the oranges.
Sources claimed that the fake oranges were colored to artificially enhance their growth by increasing their size several times at the expense of their taste.
Experts recommend that when buying oranges, we choose the fruit ourselves, and not leave the choice to the seller, as we may be deceived.
When you take oranges, squeeze them lightly and if they remain hard and do not leave stains on your hands, it means that they are edible.
If the smell of orange is too sharp and intrusive, you should not buy.
