Everything is under control
Qualitative canned fish has indelible marking. Figures on the lid mean production date, lot number and plant number. Letter “P” stands for the index of fishing industry. A can mustn’t contain rust and deformations. Canned fish can contain besides of fish, tomato paste and spices also vegetable oil and flour. This means that the fish was fried before canning. Fried kilka has better shape. Good filling must be dense and must have homogenous consistency. Qualitative kilka mustn’t fall to pieces when unpacking.
