Russian companies are reported to be increasingly using a food additive that is banned in the country—"meat glue" or transglutaminase—to cut production costs.

smuglord rofl how do those sanctions taste ruzzians??

Transglutaminase was also banned by the European Union in 2010

It has been banned for use in food production in Russia since 2020

It is still permitted for use in the United States.

    Yeah it’s a chemical compound our bodies produce. Like a lot of these things, the risk has more to do with the industrial food processing associated with the chemical rather than the chemical itself.
