Sour foods and liquids, such as those containing vinegar or citrus, can react with certain metals, particularly aluminum and iron, leading to a metallic taste and potential leaching of harmful substances. This reaction can alter the flavor of the food and compromise its safety. Therefore, sour items are typically stored in glass, ceramic, or plastic containers to avoid these issues and preserve the integrity of the food.

Why should curd and sour substances not be kept in brass and copper vessels?

all acids are sour in nature.curd,is made from milk which is slightly acidic in nature(as it contains lactic acid).we know that acids react easily with metals to give salt and hydrogen gas.when kept in copper or brass vessels,curd(and other acidic food items) reacts with copper and forms toxic compounds which may be unfit for human consumption,and may cause food poisoning.thus it is not advisable to keep curd and other acidic or sour food items in copper or brass vessels.
