Breaded Cooked Ham Slices
Product Insights
Breaded Cooked Ham Slices, sold under the Sainsbury’s brand, are processed pork ham slices that have been cured, formed, cooked and coated with a breadcrumb coating. The product belongs to the processed meat group in the PNNS classification and carries a Nutri‑Score of B and a NOVA rating of 4, indicating it is ultra‑processed; it offers 21.8 g of protein per 100 g while containing low sugar (0.9 g) and low fat (1.8 g) but a moderate amount of salt (0.54 g) and several food additives such as colour extracts, triphosphates and sodium nitrite. While the high protein and low sugar make it a convenient protein source, the presence of added salt, preservative nitrite and its high level of processing are nutritional drawbacks.
