In Norilsk, pork dishes in school menus have been replaced with alternatives.

A representative of the company "ProService Taimyr" explained that only beef and chicken remain on the schoolchildren's menu.

The decision is connected with several reasons, Severny Gorod emphasizes in a report from a meeting of the company’s representatives with the school’s parents.

Firstly, as it is emphasized, pork is less safe due to the peculiarities of animal husbandry and the risk of infection.

Secondly, beef and chicken contain more protein. The company also took into account the religious characteristics of children's nutrition.
