Schoolchildren are going to prohibit bringing food to home from school

Rospotrebnadzor of Russia revises the sanitary rules of school and preschool food. It is planned that significant amendments will be made to SanPiN.

In particular, it is proposed prevent children from bringing food from home to school or kindergarten. This applies to apples, sandwiches, and sweets.

Also, the amendments will ban school canteens use aluminum cookware, but disposable utensils will be allowed, which after one use must be disposed of.

A series of mass poisonings, which swept through schools and kindergartens in Russia, became the “last straw”, after which changes in the sanitary legislation can be considered not a whim of experts of the department, but an urgent need.

Now cooking time of cottage cheese, sausages, cucumbers and parsley will be strictly regulated before being put in salads, cooks will be required to soak in vinegar.

Leftovers from pastries, sandwiches or other dishes will be forbidden for students to leave the second shift or “for tomorrow”. And on duty in the dining room will be allowed only to students who have already turned 12 years old.
