Qualitative analysis of autohton and imported classic butter

Abstract

The quality of both autochtonous and imported butter has been established according to qualitative indices such as smell, color, appearance in section, consistency and taste, which will allow producers to draw conclusions about the importance of the market and the needs of end consumers regarding the safety and quality of the finished product. Following the examination of the correctness of the marking and labeling of 10 butter samples, several violations were found such as: none of the analyzed samples correspond, to a greater or lesser extent, to the quality requirements in terms of product labeling quality native or imported; some samples do not clearly indicate the manufacturer; no normative document or quality standard based on which the butter is produced is indicated on the packaging; the normative document is indicated very small and covered, being difficult to read; date of manufacture printed with easily washable ink hard to read.
