Cheese is a very frequent guest on our table. His story originates in the Swiss town of Thun shortly before the First world war.

EXPERT COMMENTARYMoscow Andrey Vladimirovich,head of the expert division of Roskontrol

Phosphates are not harmful additives. However, if we recall that for natural dairy products characterized by an optimal ratio of calcium to phosphorus — 1 to 0,75, and phosphates in the technical regulations TR CU 029/2012 it is recommended to add in processed cheese in an amount up to 20 grams per kilogram, in the finished processed cheese with phosphates, we can already obtain a very different, very far from the optimal ratio of these two elements is 1 to 1.5. That is why the use of large quantities of these cheeses can lead to undesirable disturbance of the balance of calcium and phosphorus in the body.



 

 

In fact grilled cheese is the result of the disposal of various dairy products. In its production allowed the use of various dairy products including cheese and butter, with deviations from the established norms for the mass fraction of moisture, fat, salt, as well as in appearance, texture and taste.

However, the use of damaged and expired products in the manufacture of processed cheese is strictly prohibited. So, not allowed to recycle products with a rancid, rotten, putrid, pronounced salatim and musty taste and smell, with the smell of petroleum products, chemicals, as well as the presence of impurities.

 



 

Processed cheese — a product of long-term storage. This contributes to heat treatment during manufacture and the sealed packaging in which spreadable cheese without additives and preservatives can be stored for up to 180 days.

By the way,the presence of cheese preservatives and additives is not absolutely necessary to use them or not resolved exclusively by the manufacturer. Information about all used preservatives and additives must be indicated on the packaging.

 



 

Recently, the "cheese-like" products found on store shelves is much easier than traditional processed cheeses. This is due primarily to the fact that during the crisis, many producers were forced to reduce the cost of production due to the use of cheaper vegetable oils, cheese and dry components. In particular, many businesses have reduced in your recipe the amount of milk fat, partially or completely replacing it with vegetable.published
