Just curious if MAP on Deli Meat would be acceptable to only use Nitrogen instead of a Nitrogen CO2 mixture. I cannot find any regulatory guidance on this, and I am unable to find a COA for the mixture that is Food Grade, but I can get them both individually with a COA. The gas company suggested only to use the Nitrogen, but I am not sure if the food safety or quality may be compromised if i made the swap.
Thank you in advance for any information or documentation as it relates to this question.
