Mumps is an infection caused by a virus. It mainly affects the salivary glands but sometimes other parts of the body are affected. Mumps normally affects children, but can occur at any age. Mumps is now rare in the UK as children are routinely immunised against mumps.
Used as a preservative for most of history, honey is also one of the foods that donât need to be refrigerated. In fact, storing it in an environment thatâs too cool increased the chances of glucose crystallizing inside the honey.
Bacteria grow well between 40 degrees F and 140 F. Hot foods should be quickly refrigerated to minimize the time these foods are held within the danger zone. Refrigerate leftovers within two hours of cooking food or holding it hot (proper hot holding temperature is 140 degrees F).
