The procedure for the examination of food quality by Rospotrebnadzor. How to check products for quality? Roskontrol list of quality products

Milk is good for health! We hear this statement from childhood. Of course, people who live in rural areas do not doubt this. However, the majority of the population of Russia lives in cities, and, unfortunately, there are no cows in the neighboring yard. What we have to buy in stores and hypermarkets is a question. In today's article, I want to talk about a study conducted by the organization Roskontrol, which compiled a rating of store-bought pasteurized milk. Several factors were taken into account as evaluation parameters, ranging from usefulness and naturalness to safety and nutritional value.

An independent research organization has tested the milk sold in our stores. The advantages and disadvantages of each product were indicated, plus an overall rating (up to 100 points) was given, according to which our rating will be built.

If you are not yet familiar with my colleague's article "Spring is the time for allergies: choosing the best air purifier", then you can read it on this one.

Unhealthy milk with significant remarks

Roskontrol conducted many analyzes and studies, according to which a list of products with significant comments and not recommended for use was obtained.

• Milk "Athanasius" 3.2% pasteurized - unsatisfactory organoleptic indicators that do not comply with GOST. Small cream-colored flakes on the surface, taste with a fodder smell and aftertaste.
• Milk "House in the village" 3.2% ultra-pasteurized - does not correspond to the name "milk" according to the identification criteria of the technical regulations: the mass fraction of protein is below the permissible level, even taking into account the measurement uncertainty (error).
• Milk "Red price" 3.2% pasteurized - does not correspond to the GOST specified in the labeling in terms of organoleptic indicators. It has a slight "medicinal" aftertaste.
• Milk "Dmitrov Dairy Plant" 3.2% pasteurized

Very unhealthy blacklisted milk

Roskontrol provided a list of dairy products, which, by their composition, are not suitable for consumption at all. It is not only not useful, but also threatens human health.

• « Marusya" from 3.4% to 4.5% pasteurized.
• "Every day" 3.2% pasteurized.
• "Dmitrogorsk product" 3.2% pasteurized.
• "Trading house Smetanin» 3.2% pasteurized.
• "Dmitrov Dairy Plant" ultra pasteurized 3.2%.

I am full, today's article was clear and useful. There are a lot of reasons to trust this rating, since the organization Roskontrol has repeatedly confirmed its qualifications and impartiality. Write in the comments which in your opinion is the most healthy milk, and of course delicious.

We publish the results of the Roskontrol examination: products that you can safely buy, and those that contain preservatives and E. coli.

Usually not expensive products are counterfeited, but in demand. Manufacturers often deceive buyers by not indicating the full composition of the product. Instead of expensive raw materials, they use cheaper substitutes.

Alexander Borisov

Alexander Borisov, co-chairman of the Roskontrol Consumer Union, confirmed that the quality of products in Russian stores is declining. There are three reasons for this:

1. In 2010, obligatory certification of food products was canceled in Russia and declaration of conformity was introduced. That is, the release of a product does not require the participation of an independent examination and laboratory research.
2. Sanctions. With a decrease in competition, new manufacturers and new products poured into the market. Certification bodies have ceased to cope with the sharply increased volumes of new products.
3. In modern economic conditions, manufacturers have been forced to go to a significant reduction in the quality, and sometimes the safety of products.

Rely on yourself only. Read labels carefully and watch what you put in your grocery basket! The independent non-profit organization "Roskontrol" helps buyers with this. It conducts research on products through donations from companies and people, among which there are no interested parties.

Representatives of the organization buy all goods as ordinary consumers - through retail stores.

Then they depersonalize them and send samples to experts. If tests show that the product is a threat to human health or the manufacturer is deceiving the buyer, the product is blacklisted.

Of all the products that Roskontrol studied, we chose the most popular ones: dumplings, sour cream, yogurt, chocolate, crab sticks, and sausage. As a reminder, in Issue 46 of November 18, we also published the results of checking popular products. If you want to know the results of all Roskontrol's research, visit roscontrol.com.

• temperature conditions are not provided
• regular disposal of waste is not ensured

The market was fined 50,000 rubles.

63 samples products and food raw materials in 2015 and January 2016 were checked at the Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology in the Tula Region for the content of antibiotics.

1 sample did not meet the standards.

35.1 tons products and food raw materials were rejected in 2015 in the Tula region.

164 samples dairy products were studied in the Tula region in 2015.

10.3 percent of which did not meet the mandatory requirements.

The organization did not check the Tula producers. You can do this yourself. In the Tula region, goods are checked by the laboratory of the Tula Center for Standardization, Metrology and Certification.

I am a big fan of all sorts of quality checks and examinations of various food products, as I monitor my health and try to eat only high-quality food. Moreover, I am always worried about the question: what kind of food can be given to children? I accidentally got on the site of Roskontrol, which conducts an independent examination of products, and spent half the night on it - until I was convinced that everything I eat was safe, I did not calm down. Although, after reading their results of the examination of food products, I will now change some brands of products in my grocery basket.

As for the organization. According to the website: “Roskontrol is a non-profit partnership that brings together leading research laboratories and scientific institutions in Russia….

Methods for checking and rating products are based on Russian state and international standards. The most authoritative testing laboratories and expert organizations are involved in conducting research and examinations ... ”Well, further on the site is a list of reputable scientific institutions that conduct an independent examination of food products.

Since there are a lot of tests, this article will results of examination of dairy products. Although I make kefir and cottage cheese on my own, and also cook homemade cheese with my own hands and advise you, this is in any case very, very necessary information. In the near future I will do such reviews for all other products.
