Artificial food products have appeared in Azerbaijani shops.

A video in Azerbaijani has appeared in the country’s social networks, in which an Azerbaijani resident clearly shows how an artificial egg is made in public nutrition conditions, vesti.az reports.

The voice in the video explains in a comprehensive language that artificial eggs can be bought in Yeni Surakhani district of Baku. He also notes that the yolk of those eggs resembles rubber and doesn’t dissolve in water. Such surrogate is bought mainly by the poor, who feed their children by them, the man adds in Azerbaijani.

It is really hard to visually distinguish the counterfeit from the real one. In fact, caviar is the same egg produced by fish, but everyone has already got used to the open sale of artificial caviar.

Tips have appeared in the press to help people distinguish between real and artificial eggs. It is possible to do this by breaking the egg and placing its content in a bowl filled with water. In case of artificial eggs, the yolk and the egg-white will get mixed, since they are made by agents close to each other by consistence, only being painted in different colors. Real yolk and egg-white will never get mixed without interference by a man. But it is impossible to distinguish between real and artificial eggs in ready-made dishes, thus artificial eggs are most likely to be used in public catering places.
