Organic Mild Italian Chicken Sausage, 12 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd spot this in the chilled prepared meats or deli section at Whole Foods, grabbed for backyard grills, a quick weeknight pasta, or a cozy weekend brunch. It feels wholesome and familiar — organic ingredients and Italian seasoning give a comforting, slightly indulgent vibe — while the ingredient list and natural pork casing point to a traditionally processed sausage (seasoned and salted) rather than a highly engineered product, with small hints of added processing like 'natural flavor' and sunflower oil.
