Organisms that cause food molds, yeasts, and spoilage are always present bacteria in the air, water and soil. Enzymes that may cause undesirable changes in flavor, color, and textures are present in raw fruits and vegetables. When food is heated hot enough and long enough, spoilage organisms are destroyed and the action of enzymes is destroyed.
