Doubt surrounding the binding-agent being used in the 'pizza-meat'-mixture
There is some doubt surrounding which binding-agent, Stabburet is using in the 'pizza-meat'-mixture (A mixture which is containing forthy percent meat from cattle, according to Stabburet).
On this webpage, from the Stabburet website, it says that the binding-agent being used is soy-protein: http://produktkatalog.stabburet.no/eway/default.aspx?pid=226&trg=Main_4493&Main_4493=4577:16978::0:4573:1:::0:0 (Norwegian).
While on this webpage, also from the Stabburet website, it says the the binding-agent being used is gelatine based on svine: http://www.stabburet.no/eway/default.aspx?pid=223&trg=Content_4407&Main_4320=4407:0:10,1238:1:0:0:::0:0&Content_4407=4330:15476::1:4410:2:::0:0&kwid=10,1238
Så it could seem like the company itself is a bit uncertain regarding which binding-agent that is really being used in the mixture.
Also, more questions surrounding Pizza Grandiosa, is being asked in this thread, from the Norwegian online newspaper Nettavisen's message-board: http://forum.tv2.no/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=64&threadid=38257 (Norwegian).
It seems like there could be a small paradox, and maybe even a small mystery, surrounding the fact that many Grandiosa pizza-editions (including the famous and big-selling Grandiosa Orginal/Classic), all being produced on the Stabburet Grandiosa-factory in Stranda in Norway, are being sold in very large quantities in Norway and Finland, while they are not being sold in Sweden or Denmark at all.
In Sweden and Denmark, only Grandiosa-editions produced on the Orkla-owned Procordia pizza-factory in Dalarna in Sweden, and on the Big One pizza-factory in Stranda in Norway, are being sold.
In Stranda, there are in fact two pizza-factories. One Big One pizza-factory (The pizzas produced on this factory are being sold as 'Big One' pizzas in Norway, and as 'Grandiosa Big One' in Sweden and Finland) and one Grandiosa pizza-factory (The pizzas produces here are only sold in Norway and Finland).
The two pizza-factories in the remote West-Norwegian municipality of Stranda, are being run comletely separatly, and have even both got their own separate pizza-bread bakery.
These facts has led to that there have been questions raised, regaring the contence of the pizzas produced at the Stabburet Grandiosa pizza-factory in Stranda, since these pizzas are not being sold at all in eighter Sweden or Denmark, even if they are, by far, the most sold frozen pizza-types in Norway, and are also being sold in large quantities in Finland.
