If bacteria die from (for example, boiled water) where do their corpses go?
In: Biology
They stay in the water and get dissolved. So basically anything you eat that has been cooked has some dead bacteria as part of the food. Enjoy!
Bacteria bodies are completely harmless and make up a very small amount of the substance so it’s really not a concern. Only problem can be that some bacteria produce toxins and those toxins don’t go away so if you have something that has been really infected by bacteria then it’s probably not safe to eat even after removing the bacteria.
