Today buying food, very often you can come across a fake.
Manufacturing and selling food is a lucrative business, but there is a way to make it more profitable.
By counterfeiting the most popular or most expensive food.
Moreover, the methods fake the manufacturer itself does not limit, often jeopardizing the health and even the lives of those who will eat it. All looks pretty natural, so the buyer has no apparent reason to doubt the origin of the same shrimp or meat.
Dairy products
This category of products – the buy in stores. Enriched its production did not want just lazy.
For example, sour cream today doing absolutely nothing like in the good old days – from milk. Now it consists of harmful vegetable fat, soy and flavor enhancers.
To check its quality by using boiling water. Real sour cream is dissolved in it without sediment.
Black and red caviar
This product have long been considered a delicacy. The reason is the high cost and time consuming production. Fake red and black caviar for a long time, because it’s pretty easy.
You just need to take the gelatin to create edible algae to give a fake characteristic odor. To understand that you bought fake eggs, you should try to chew the egg. If it is inside a homogeneous solid, we have some bad news for you.
Canned foods
Here it is not so much about a fake, how about increasing the amount of canned product due to the excess sauce, oil and water. That is, opening these cans, instead of a fish to find it a mash-up of several tiny pieces of the actual product and side supplements.
Crab meat
Under this brand, sold by some substance, which is neither crab or meat is irrelevant. However in crab meat or crab sticks add a little waste from fish processing, they give a specific taste and smell. And the weight and texture give the starch and synthetic.
Smoked
Today, smoked fish or meat without the use of fire and smoke. A recent invention called “liquid smoke”. They eliminate the need to have a smokehouse and a supply of quality wood to obtain the smell.

Shrimp
Shrimp is a kind of product that requires a careful approach to fishing and harvesting. Such care is expensive because the fragile shrimp have the ability to break down and lose shape.
Unscrupulous manufacturers freeze them wrong, and the buyer eventually buys a pack of ice. In addition, shrimp are grown with the use of antibiotics, and it is very harmful to those who will end up there.
Honey
Quality to find honey in the cities is almost impossible. This is due to the fact that it is much easier this product is to dilute than to pay beekeepers for the same amount of pure product.
The same situation exists around the popular soy sauce, which has a short shelf life, and the process of making this product is very time consuming.
Olive oil
Even the oil of foreign manufacture may not have any relation to the real olives. In its production are often mixed, cheap oil, and the taste has already become familiar to the consumer, so recognize the forgery very difficult.
