The Romanian government would place Romania’s miccs sausage under protection against the blacklist of the EU

The Romanian government would place the miccs sausage under protection as a national dish. In opposite case, the popular food would be added to the blacklist of the EU from 1 June. The Romanian Meat Association's request in this regard was transmitted to the European Commission on Thursday.

The miccs sausages can be blacklisted because its basic material contains conservants and antioxidants, which can not be used in the meat processing industry, according to an EU regulation coming into force on 1 June.

According to the datas of the Romanian Meat Association, last year 22 thousand tons of miccs sausages were sold in Romania. (maszol.ro, kitekinto.hu)
