Russia is set to introduce a national state standard for shawarma in 2025, aiming to improve the quality of the street food and reduce health risks. The standard will specify the meats that can be used in shawarma, as well as the composition of the dish, including flatbreads, sauces, and other ingredients. It will also address health and safety concerns by specifying permissible norms for toxic elements and radioactivity. Detailed procedures for the preparation of shawarma are included in the standard to ensure consistency and safety. The standard also acknowledges both names for the dish -- shawarma and shaverma -- reflecting regional differences in Russia.
