Rospotrebnadzor gave recommendations on the choice of meat for barbecue

On the eve of the May holidays, Rospotrebnadzor gave recommendations on the choice of MEAT for barbecue. The advice is posted on the agency's website.

“Rospotrebnadzor does not recommend buying meat in places of unidentified trade, of unknown origin, without accompanying documents,” the message says. The department added that the seller is obliged to provide, at the request of the buyer, an invoice for the goods, a certificate of conformity and a veterinary certificate.

The experts clarified that high-quality chilled meat is characterized by the absence of the smell of rot, chemicals or dampness, as well as a uniform color. To the touch it should be elastic, without stickiness and bleeding.

Rospotrebnadzor reminded that sellers do not have the right to put re-frozen meat on the counter.
