“Walnuts with boiled condensed milk” are produced by Capital LLC in Penza under the brand Lyubimaya Lavka. According to the state standard, the preservative sodium benzoate E211 was used when creating the delicacy, which is unacceptable in the production of confectionery products containing milk and flour in accordance with the technical regulations of the Customs Union on food safety.
“Kartoshka” was created by PTK Kolos LLC in Chelyabinsk. The state standard clarified that the composition of this candy exceeded the permissible level of the E200 sorbic acid preservative by 1.2 times, which also violated the technical regulations of the Customs Union.
The department will ban the sale of “potatoes” and “nuts” starting January 17. In addition, from this date the state regulation will limit its import, will withdraw the rest of the products from circulation and will end the validity of the conformity assessment documents. The agency ordered manufacturers to remove the violations.
In December 2024, the Belarusian state agency Belta reported on the ban on the import and sale of Altai buckwheat in the country. The cereal was cooked for 29 minutes at a rate of no more than 25 minutes, which did not correspond to the text on the package.
