Abstract
Meat-processing enterprises produce a wide range of canned meat in different price categories. Complete information about the composition enables consumers to choose a product that meets their needs. However, the information on the label does not always correspond to the true composition of the canned food, and consumers are deceived in their expectations. Often, food additives that are not permitted by regulatory documents or are not declared on the label are introduced into the recipe. The purpose of this study was to identify the composition of canned meat lumps of popular brands produced from premium beef in accordance with GOST 32125 “Canned meat. Stewed meat”. The study was carried out by histological method. In many canned food samples, vegetable protein products, as well as thickening food additives, such as carrageenan, gums, starch, were found. The conclusions are made about the high level of falsification of this type of product.
