Kathy: Hey, Jerry! Guess what? The Dragon Boat Festival is just around the corner, and I came across this amazing online store that sells mouthwatering rice dumplings. Should we order some?

Kathy: Exactly! The article also mentioned that during the festival, it gets hot and humid, which creates a perfect breeding ground for bacteria on the dumplings. If we don’t finish them, it’s best to store them in the freezer below -18℃.
凱西:沒錯。文章也提到端午節時,天氣熱又潮濕,粽子容易滋生細菌。如果吃不完粽子,最好盡快放進零下18℃以下的冷凍庫。

Kathy: Perfect! I’ll place the order right away.
