Romanian authorities start investigation into food quality

28 March 2017

Romania’s Ombudsman has launched an investigation into the quality of food sold in Eastern Europe compared to that of the food sold in Western countries, after similar actions in Czech Republic, Hungary, and Poland.

The three countries have signaled possible double standards practiced by the major food brands, which may be selling lower quality food in Easter Europe compared to Western Europe.

The Visegrad Group (the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia) appealed to other countries in Central and Eastern Europe to join the initiative against double standards practiced by the big brands. Romania’s Agriculture Ministry has also announced that it would monitor the phenomenon.

Romania’s Constitution has a provision about equal rights and the right to health, announced the Ombudsman yesterday. On March 14, Bulgaria’s Ombudsman also asked for the discrimination and the double standards to stop.
