Answer:
When pickles and curd are stored in containers made up of copper metal, the lactic acid present in these food items reacts with the pot-metal and instantly forms metallic salts.
These salts make the curd unhealthy for human consumption. However, many spicy foods can be kept in copper pot as they do not react with acids, thus it helps in keeping the food in the container safe.
