'Via xxx wordt de naam vastgelegd, waarna de omschrijvingen van bindweefsel en vet kunnen worden ingevuld. Dit zijn de ingrediënten die op de declaratie verschijnen als de waardes te hoog zijn. De kantelwaardes kunnen hier ook ingevoerd. Let erop dat deze waardes zijn vastgelegd in de wet en moeten worden overgenomen.'

Explanation:

Products shall have a minimum meat content of 42%, the meat being defined in accordance with Commission Directive 2001/101/EC which introduces the European generic definition of meat for the purposes of labelling. The definition includes maximum percentage limits (on fat 30% of the pork meat content and connective tissue 25% collagen/protein ratio in the case of pork) that may be counted, along with the skeletal muscle, towards the meat content of the product. Fat and connective tissue in excess of the limits laid down shall be declared separately on the label, and may not be included as meat in the QUID meat declaration.
