The photos showing a pack of hair in the cut of the dry-cured Salami sausage made a great fuss in the Belarusian Internet. According to the photos, the sausage was produced at the Minsk meat processing plant. Euroradio called deputy head on manufacture issues of the enterprise Volha Barysevich and asked whether somebody had complained about their goods' quality.

 

"No one called me personally in this regard. However, someone did call our technologist who works in the quality group. She printed out the information and passed to technologists. I can tell you for sure it wasn't a rat. It could probably be hair from the head meat".

 

 

They promise at the meat processing plant that the incident will not pass unnoticed. However, they also note that it is difficult to say for sure that this very enterprise produced the sausage in the photos. The label, they say, does not mean anything.

 

"We will investigate the incident. Maybe, someone missed it. A master, a worker and a master again. It would be better if they brought us this sausage and show it. Not just the label... We cannot be sure that it was ours. Maybe they took the label off and pasted it on our sausage".

 

Alongside with that, Volha Barysevich admits that something which should not be in a sausage can possibly get into it. She explains that this is connected with big scopes of manufacture. She also says that in cases when buyers appealed to the plant with such complaints, they left the enterprise satisfied.

 

"There were cases, very rarely. A small bone or cartilage could have appeared somewhere. Sometimes it is impossible to detect. We solve such issues by negotiations, the buyers leave satisfied."

Euroradio addressed to the Institute of Meat and Milk Production on the premises of the Academy of Sciences. They said in the department of meat production technology that hair of cows may indeed get into a sausage. They ask to refrain from hasty judgment.

 

"There should be histological researches if something like this happens. Sometimes people may say that it was another animal, while the hair indeed belonged to a cow. The histological institute will give a reply which animal it was".

 

Thus, if you find bones, hair or cartilages in the sausage - do not worry. You can exchange the bad sausage for another one at the meat processing plant.
