A total of 6.2 kilograms of minced meat, lamb offal and beef kavrma were found in the fast food restaurant without any documents of origin and ultimately unfit for sale.
The meat shop found 200 kilograms of beef carcasses chilled, 16 kilograms of beef shank, 70 kilograms of frozen beef and 6 kilograms of butter without marking and labeling and without documents of origin.
The owners of both sites have been issued Administrative Violation Acts, as the entire amount of food of animal origin has been banned and is aimed at the destruction of the slaughterhouse.
A few days ago, nearly 39 tons of meat were confiscated by the Regional Directorate for Food Safety - Shumen. During an action and inspection of a warehouse for storage of fruits and vegetables in the village of Kochovo, Shoumen District, 20 tons of frozen frozen diaphragms and 19 tons of mutton were found, without the necessary accompanying documents.
