The Federal Agency for Technical Regulation and Metrology (Rosstandart) has approved a new national standard, GOST R 70148-2022, regulating the quality, safety, and labeling of meat barbecue products. Set to be enforced from January 1, 2023, the standard applies to small-sized, boneless semi-finished meat products like kebabs, made from pork, lamb, or beef. The standard outlines criteria such as organoleptic properties, physical and chemical parameters, and storage conditions, but the manufacturer is responsible for setting the shelf life. This standard is expected to ensure the production of safe and high-quality products, increasing their competitiveness in the Russian market.
