Imported dried fruits sold in domestic food chains are full of chemicals that can cause various allergic reactions, writes Everyday.
The Food Safety Agency has warned that sulfites, which were not marked on the labels, were found in more than 2 tons of dried fruits in the domestic markets.
The fruits were imported from Turkey and their withdrawal from the trade network has already started.
Sulfites are a synthetic food additive and are used to prolong the life of the product by killing microorganisms, for a better appearance and more lasting taste.
But in people who are prone to allergies, and especially in asthmatics, sulfites cause bouts of shortness of breath and swelling of the tongue.
Experts advise looking for prunes, apples or pears from retailers and avoid packaged options in large retail chains.
Only a month before Christmas and New Year, it became clear that the steaks that we will consume for the holidays are of dubious quality.
Experts warn that the pork, which will be sold for about BGN 6 per kilogram, is very likely to be a fake. Traders will try to try low-quality meat at low prices between the two biggest holidays in our country.
A source working in the field of meat processing reveals to Everyday that some of this year's steaks have been treated with water and food additives.
The purpose of processing is to reduce the price of meat, making it of lower quality and thus to sell more.
But most experts in the field claim that the price of domestic pork is collapsing due to the imposed Russian embargo. Due to the stopped export, the domestic producers are forced to lower the values of the pork, because otherwise they will have to throw it away.
However, some say that the meat processing business in our country will not lose from this year's cheap pork, but on the contrary - will win, as most consumers will prefer it for their Christmas table.
