<p>A recent report from the Pakistan Polio Laboratory at the National Institutes of Health has revealed the detection of poliovirus in an environmental sample collected from Karachi, the capital of Sindh province. This marks the first instance of poliovirus detection in the city in 2023. Additionally, poliovirus was also identified in two environmental samples in Peshawar, the capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. The health authorities in Pakistan are working in collaboration with Afghanistan to eliminate the poliovirus, with joint efforts being made to combat the spread of the disease.</p><div class="embed"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/sERfqmeJtFw" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><h2>Poliovirus Detection in Karachi</h2><p>The Pakistan Polio Laboratory confirmed the presence of poliovirus in an environmental sample collected from the Sohrab Goth area of Karachi on May 15. This detection highlights the ongoing risk of poliovirus transmission in the city. It is crucial to address the situation promptly to prevent the further spread of the virus.</p><h2>Efforts in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa</h2><p>In addition to the detection in Karachi, poliovirus was also found in two environmental samples collected from Larama and Naray Khuwar in Peshawar, the capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Genetic analysis revealed that the isolated viruses are closely linked to the virus cluster currently circulating in Afghanistan's Nangarhar province. This underscores the importance of cross-border collaboration in combating polio.</p><h2>Joint Efforts of Pakistan and Afghanistan</h2><p>Federal Health Minister Abdul Qadir Patel emphasized the joint efforts being made by Pakistan and Afghanistan to eliminate polio. The two countries are working together to address the challenges posed by the disease and ensure its eradication. Close cooperation and coordination are crucial to prevent the cross-border transmission of the virus and protect vulnerable populations.</p><h2>Taking Necessary Steps</h2><p>The health authorities in Pakistan are committed to taking all necessary steps to eradicate polio. Minister Patel urged the public to ensure that their children receive mandatory polio vaccines. Vaccination campaigns and immunization drives are essential to reach every child and protect them from the debilitating effects of poliovirus.</p>

<p>Jennifer Aniston, the iconic Friends star known for her commitment to clean eating and exercise, shares a different perspective from the '90s belief of Kate Moss that being skinny is the ultimate goal. Aniston believes that there are plenty of things that taste better than how being skinny feels. In a recent interview with PEOPLE, she opened up about the importance of enjoying life and indulging while maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Aniston has embraced low-impact workouts, specifically Pvolve, after transitioning away from her previous cardio routine due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This change has also taught her the significance of still finding joy in food.</p><h2>Food Is Love</h2><div>Jennifer Aniston, the iconic Friends star known for her commitment to clean eating and exercise, shares a different perspective from the '90s belief of Kate Moss that being skinny is the ultimate goal.

<div>Leftover sushi is not something that ages well. While certain foods like wine or cheese may improve with time, sushi is best enjoyed fresh. While you can repurpose many leftovers, sushi is an exception. If you've ever questioned the safety of eating leftover sushi and wondered how long it can be stored, here's what you need to know.</div><h2>Katie Heil's Expert Advice</h2><div>According to Katie Heil, Seller/Server Learning Experience Design Manager at Certus, sushi with raw fish should be consumed within one to two days of preparation. On the other hand, sushi without raw fish may remain safe for up to nearly a week. These recommendations align with the guidelines provided by the Food Code from the USFDA, which states that food prepared and refrigerated in a food establishment should be consumed, sold, or discarded within seven days. It's worth noting that the day of preparation counts as day one.</div><h2>The Role of Cooked Rice</h2><div>Leftover rice can sometimes cause food poisoning, and sushi rice is no exception. Heil explains that cooked rice is considered Time/Temperature for Safety (TCS) food, which means it should be refrigerated at or below 41 degrees Fahrenheit to remain safe for consumption.</div><h2>Complexities of Sushi Rice</h2><div>Sushi rice is a bit more complex due to the addition of vinegar. The use of vinegar in sushi rice can act as a method of preservation, potentially altering its classification as a TCS food. In such cases, restaurants would need to apply for a variance and establish a safety plan to determine the storage duration.</div><h2>Recommended Best Practices</h2><div>To ensure safety, it's generally best to consume sushi within a day or two of its preparation. In the meantime, be sure to refrigerate any leftover sushi promptly. By following these practices, you can enjoy sushi while minimizing any potential risks associated with improper storage.</div><div>Conclusion:</div><div>When it comes to leftover sushi, it's crucial to consider the guidelines for safe consumption. Sushi with raw fish should be enjoyed within one to two days, while sushi without raw fish may be safe for nearly a week. Additionally, the storage of sushi rice has its complexities, with vinegar potentially playing a role in its preservation. By adhering to these guidelines and best practices, you can savor your sushi while prioritizing food safety.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>

The Shelf Life of Leftover Sushi

<p>Taco Bell, the renowned California-based chain, has made a significant announcement for vegans and plant-based enthusiasts. For the first time ever, they are introducing a fully vegan entree item to their menu: the Vegan Crunchwrap. This new addition promises a delightful combination of Taco Bell's own plant-based "beef," along with a creamy vegan blanco sauce and vegan nacho sauce.</p><h2>Developing a Vegan Masterpiece</h2><p>According to Taco Bell, the development of the Vegan Crunchwrap involved extensive testing and tasting. The vegan nacho sauce, in particular, underwent meticulous refinement by the chain's in-house chefs to ensure its exceptional flavor. Liz Matthews, Taco Bell's Global Chief Food Innovation Officer, expressed their commitment to the vegan and vegetarian community, stating that this special release took considerable time to perfect, aiming to offer a truly mouth-watering experience.</p><div class="embed"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RSn1Ag0kFqo" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><h2>Certified Vegan Ingredients</h2><p>Every component of the Vegan Crunchwrap, including the crispy tostada shell, has received certification from the American Vegetarian Association, confirming its vegan status. However, Taco Bell acknowledges that in certain locations, the same oil may be used for frying both vegan and non-vegan ingredients. Additionally, employees may handle both types of ingredients, which could result in minimal cross-contact.</p><h2>Limited Availability and Trial Run</h2><p><img loading="lazy" src="https://static.spicejin.com/uploads/vegan4_ec597a7987.webp" alt="vegan4.webp"></p><p>As of now, the Vegan Crunchwrap is exclusively available for a limited time at select Taco Bell locations in Los Angeles, New York City, and Orlando. These include 6741 Hollywood Blvd in Hollywood, CA, 976 6th Ave in New York, NY, and 11893 East Colonial Dr in Orlando, FL. The pricing of the Vegan Crunchwrap will be the same as its non-vegan counterpart, subject to market variations. This trial run aims to gather valuable customer feedback to guide future menu developments, indicating the potential for wider availability in the future.</p><h2>An Innovative Approach to Veggie Options</h2><p>Missy Schaaphok, Taco Bell's Director of Global Nutrition and Sustainability, emphasizes the brand's dedication to meeting their fans' evolving preferences. The introduction of the Vegan Crunchwrap represents a unique twist on customer-customizable menu items, offering a vegan option straight off the menu without any modifications. Schaaphok believes that no veggie burger can compare to this new creation, and Taco Bell invites customers in Los Angeles, New York, and Orlando to put this claim to the test.</p>
