Sorry, ducks — the bread of the future will last for 60 days

11/30/2012

That gross surprise you get when you bite into bread with a green (or blue or pink) moldy patch could be a thing of the past, thanks to Texas company Microzap. No joke, that’s its real name, and it’s an apt description of what it does — the company basically runs food through an overgrown microwave to kill off nasty bacteria like MRSA and salmonella. Zapping a slice of bread for 10 seconds keeps it mold-free and edible for 60 days. Great news for us, but what about all those ducks waiting around for our throwaways? [Source]
