What’s the best thing to eat on a summer day? Quite a few people would say ice-cream. Yes, eating ice cream with some fruit on top is a great way to cool down. But think before you eat. If your body is hot from playing sports, it’s not the best time to eat ice cream.

If you eat ice cream when your body is hot, it may give your stomach some problems, and you can get diarrhoea(腹泻). You can eat some ice cream after you cool down a little and have some tea. Just try not to eat too much at a time.

After dinner is another time people shouldn’t eat or drink anything cold. Drink something hot after you eat, and your stomach will digest (消化) your food better. If you love fruit, summer is a great time for you. Go to the market and pick out the best fruit of the season. If you want to stay cool, oranges, bananas, pears and watermelons can help.

In summer, germs grow very fast and make your food go bad quickly. Try hard to keep yourself and your home clean in summer. You should eat clean, fresh food. When you want to eat a cold dish, put some vinegar to kill the germs. If you can’t finish your food and want to eat it again next day, make sure you heat it enough to kill the germs in it. And when you put food in the fridge, make sure to keep the cooked food away from the uncooked food.
