    In fact, all foods contain nitrite and nitrate. In addition to the vegetables themselves, the content of nitrate is also related to the planting method and the harvest time. In fact, it is not that people only get poisoned if they ingest nitrite, because nitrite will only be poisoned when it reaches the lowest dose. Therefore, nitrite is not only available for overnight meals. Freshly bought green leafy vegetables also contain nitrite.
