What You Should Know

You'd find this in the refrigerated organic meat or deli case, often picked up for a quick skillet breakfast, holiday plate, or retro-cabin meal. The product gives a nostalgic, practical vibe—smoky and comforting without feeling overly indulgent. The smoking and curing (salt, sugars, cultured celery powder) produce a firm, sliceable texture and, because the ingredient list is mostly whole foods and culinary ingredients, it reads as a processed product rather than a highly industrial ultra-processed item (NOVA 3).

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from pork plus water, salt, sugars, maple syrup, vinegar and cultured celery powder for curing; the ingredients and traditional smoking/curing methods indicate a processed (NOVA 3) food rather than an ultra-processed industrial formulation.
