I bought this sausage because I attracted a relatively natural composition. When cut, the sausage is smooth and dense, which is also a plus. But the taste was not particularly pleasing - some kind of indistinct, insipid or something. I can't say anything bad, but a one-time purchase, no more.

Best lists

All participants in today's rating are in special demand among buyers and there are several reasons for this: this is advertising, and trust in a particular brand, and personal taste preferences. Of course, the price plays an important, and sometimes dominant role. It's time to select the best doctoral designs in three important consumer categories.

Among other things, the sausage "CampoMos" received high tasting ratings and a safe composition.

Tips for choosing a doctor's sausage in the store

The following tips can make the choice of cooked sausage in the store a lot easier. In order not to stumble upon a low-quality product, pay attention to the following criteria:

• A high-quality doctor's sausage according to GOST cannot be too cheap, because it must be made from raw meat, namely the muscle tissue of pork and beef. Thus, a kilogram of sausage should not cost less than 600 rubles. If the price tag is lower, then you have a product of dubious quality, which is risky to purchase.
• We carefully study the ingredient composition, which should be something like the following: beef, pork, water, egg melange or egg, milk, salt, sugar and spices. And pay attention - the water should be the third maximum, not higher! Soy, starch, fiber, poultry - the presence of these elements in the composition of this doctoral dissertation is not allowed.
• Not a single boiled sausage is now complete without food additives: it is important to know which of them are not prohibited by GOST and which are allowed. Must be present: color fixer sodium nitrite E250, ascorbic acid E300 or sodium ascorbate E301 - they are responsible for safety and taste. To increase the shelf life, the following are allowed: phosphates E450 and acid regulators E452, salts of food acids E262, E325 or E326, E330 or E331, as well as antioxidants E304, E306 or E392.
• Try to choose a sausage product in its original packaging, and not cut from the store itself - this can be unhygienic and hazardous to health.
• The best types of casings for sausages are natural intestinal cyanosis, protein collagen or cellophane. They preserve the aroma and taste of the product well.
• Pay attention to the cut of the sausage: the color should be pale pink, too bright a color indicates added synthetic dyes. Minced meat should have a uniform consistency, without inclusions, spots and voids.
