If a food item contains water, it'll be easier for bacteria to grow on (in) it. So a dried food (sugar, for example) will not spoil very easy. Fresh milk, on the other hand can be preserved for only a few days. For fungi and bacteria to grow, they need food, and they just love sugars and other carbohydrates. Sweet items can spoil easier, unless they contain more than 15% of suger. This large amount of suger can protect the fooditem. Grease, like oil and fat may react with oxigen and become rancid. Oxigen is also needed for most bacteria. And: if a foodstuff already contains some bacteria (like most natural, uncooked food does) it spoil faster. This is the reason tinned food can stay good for long time and get spoiled in a few days after opening. As long as the tin is closed, there are no bacteria inside. I hope this answers your question a bit.

Is food spoilage a physical change?
There are several changes that occur that cause food spoilage. A loss of ph, spoilage caused by bacteria and decomposition are contributing factors to food spoilage.
Example of food technology?
Food technology is a process in which food production process are used to make food. An example of food technology is the different scientific experiments used to prevent food spoilage.
Why does refrigeration keep things from spoiling?
Most spoilage organisms grow rapidly at warm temperatures. A refrigerator keeps food cold and slows the microbial growth process. So spoilage is delayed and not completely prevented. If the food is frozen, spoilage organisms will not grow.

What year did Louis Pasteur conduct experiments on the spoilage of food?
Louis Pasteur conducted his experiments on the spoilage of food in the 1860s. His groundbreaking work demonstrated that microorganisms cause food spoilage and spoilage can be prevented through processes such as pasteurization. This research significantly advanced the field of microbiology and food preservation.
How do enzymes cause food spoilage?
There are enzymes that speed up the chemical reaction components in food which leads to spoilage. Enzymes can be slowed down so that food spoilage doesn't occur as quickly by keeping food in cold temperatures.
