About harmful food additives
Did you know that the same manufacturer can produce products of three categories of the same product:
The first - for domestic consumption (in industrialized countries);
the second - for exports to other developed countries;
third - for export to developing countries.
The third category is about 80% of food and beverage exported from the United States and Western Europe. According to the UN Food Commission, some Western firms expand exports not only environmentally harmful, but banned in developed countries. We believe they are not developed, so that's probably not care about the quality of exported products. The point here is in the fact that the Western consumer is well versed where environmentally friendly product without preservatives and where low-quality, our customer is looking mainly on price. Yes, the price of such products in two or even three times lower, but more expensive health!
