What You Should Know

Beretta Prosciutto 3oz Pre Sliced is a small-format, refrigerated Italian prosciutto you’d find hanging in the deli or chilled specialty meat aisle, shelved alongside other charcuterie, pre-sliced salami, fresh mozzarella, olives and antipasti kits. The package’s clear, vacuum-sealed plastic reveals delicate, translucent slices with a deep reddish-pink and fine marbling — a visual cue of traditional dry-curing. The brand leans on two-hundred years of Italian family heritage (since 1812), positioning the product as an approachable, artisanal option for shoppers who want authentic Mediterranean flavors without buying a whole ham. Typical occasions include appetizer-centric shopping for weekend brunches, picnic or game-day spreads, and quick upgrades for lunch sandwiches. Label claims emphasize “minimally processed” and “no artificial ingredients,” and there’s no organic certification; the look and language create a clean, natural-health halo without kid-focused branding. Sensory notes: thin, silky slices that feel tender and slightly chewy, with a mild, sweet-salty profile and a subtle aged aroma — best enjoyed folded on a board, wrapped around melon or grissini, or layered in a sandwich. Packaging ritual is convenient and immediate: pop open the pouch, separate slices with fingers or tongs, and arrange simply. Processing context: this is a cured, air-dried ham salted and aged in the traditional way — not heavily formulated. The product fits American grocery culture as a small luxury staple, a quick way to add an elevated, Mediterranean touch to casual meals and entertaining.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

This prosciutto is a traditionally cured, air-dried meat made from pork and salt, so it is classified as processed (NOVA 3) rather than ultra-processed; the short ingredient list and absence of industrial additives indicate artisanal-style processing rather than formulation with multiple additives.
