Following an impromptu raid, the Primorsky department of Rosselkhoznadzor swooped into several "Svetofor" network stores in Kamchatka. Outlets in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky and Elizovo were hit with four separate inspections.

In the bust, a whopping 1.7-ton haul of cans - fish and meat - were confiscated. Without the necessary veterinary papers, the items couldn't be verified as safe for consumption. Once the administrative investigation wraps up, the cans will head back to their owner for disposal.

Samples of meat and dairy products were also collected for laboratory analysis. The results indicated some shady business practices:

  • "Baltic" and "Doctor's" sausages, produced by ZAO "Lytkarinsky Meat Processing Plant", were found to contain the proscribed additive - microbial transglutaminase.
  • "Swiss" cheese from OOO "Molovita" was found to have fat replacers that were mysteriously missing from its named ingredients.

With these controversies now in the spotlight, Rosselkhoznadzor has launched administrative cases. Decisions on "Svetofor"'s liability will only be made once all relevant materials have been thoroughly reviewed.
