Many vendors assure customers of the quality of their products, but upon contact, it often turns out that the necessary documents are missing. One fish seller even admitted she hadn't considered legally registering her business, claiming she only sells her catch to friends.

The situation poses health risks, as purchasing food without proven safety is like gambling. Doctors warn that meat and fish poisoning can lead to serious consequences, including acute intestinal infections.

In the spring of 2024 , Russians already faced threats when contaminated meat entered the market through illegal trade. While control efforts are increasing, responsibility for consumer health remains with consumers themselves. New laws requiring mandatory information on product certificates will only come into effect in 2026, leaving the situation uncertain for the coming years.
