Why can't you find products like those in Germany? I think many customers would like to see this here too and please don't give me an explanation as to why a certain amount of the poison is vetretbar.

Hello munggizzi, thank you for taking the time to write to us.
Curing agents such as nitrite and nitrate play an important role in the taste, color and safety of meat products. They prevent the growth of dangerous bacteria that cannot be killed by heat alone and help to extend shelf life. At the same time, we are aware that the digestion of cured products can produce nitrosamines, which are considered a health risk. That is why there are strict legal limits, which we naturally comply with.
Products without curing agents are a challenge in terms of technology and taste. Our previous Pure Nature products, which were made with beetroot powder instead of nitrite curing salt, unfortunately did not have the desired success. However, we are continuing to investigate possible alternatives that also meet our high quality and safety standards.
If you are interested in products that are produced without nitrite curing salt, you can find some long-matured ham varieties here:

Beretta Prosciutto di San Daniele: https://www.migros.ch/en/product/233012253000

We hope that this information will help you. Best regards, Mara

It could / SHOULD have been mentioned in the same sentence that sausage and meat products containing nitrite curing salt must never be heated above 150°C because this is the biggest issue when it comes to the absorption / formation of nitrosamines.
In addition, vitamin C (ascorbic acid) can inhibit the formation of nitrosamines to a certain extent, but not completely.
Furthermore, certain vegetables can also form nitrosamines when they are heated. For example spinach, which is rich in nitrate. If it is heated too much, nitrosamines can be formed in the body. Especially if you make a vegetable stir-fry and add spinach, the temperature in the pan can easily reach 140° - 160°C... This also includes radishes, beetroot, chard, kale...
Unfortunately, this has been completely ignored here and that is no small amount of information...! Better information is needed here.

I fully agree with what was explained, the strict regulations and technical difficulties make it completely understandable why certain products are not readily available.

Well, that was a really good answer!
But should I memorize these products or take photos of them? It would be really good if they were printed as clearly as on the German product that munggizzi posted. Please report this to the relevant departments, thank you. The producers could actually do this themselves (saving Migros money), as it is guaranteed to boost sales. So please report this further.
