Meat is a major source of proteins, essential amino-acids, minerals and complex B vitamins. From nutritional point of view has rabbit meat relatively low fat and is rich in proteins. Because of that it is considered as diet food. There is also no distinct aroma of rabbit meat. Sunflower oil has high content of monounsaturated fatty acids and has good influence on the n-3/n-6 ratio. In the present study rabbit frankfurters with pork back fat and/or sunflower oil were made, one sample was also without phosphate. Due to sensory evaluation test the frankfurters are better with pork back fat added. Without phosphate texture was more gentle and less ruby but oxidation process was faster. It can be concluded that rabbit meat is suitable for meat products, especially with vegetable oils included. Products can rich optimal fatty acid ratio and influence on human health.
