Does packaged sliced meat count as a meat product?
If the sliced meat is pure meat sliced from a joint e.g. ham or beef this would not count as a meat product. However, if the sliced meat is processed and includes other ingredients e.g. corned beef, this would count towards the meat products standard, and provision would be restricted. For further clarification of these categories, please refer to the website guidance on the standards for meat products, available from www.schoolfoodtrust.org.uk/meatproducts or to the Meat Products Regulations (2003) No. 2075 available from: www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2003/20032075.htm(Meat Products Regulations (2003) No.
