sterilize
I've never heard of "sterilze" being applied as a process to foods. Also, your definition removed information about spores, and indicates only the destruction of microorganisms. Microbiologists don't usually consider spores to be organisms, but sterilization destroys spores as well. --EncycloPetey 03:51, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
