Product Insights
Saucisson sec is a traditional French dry pork sausage offered by Fresh & Easy (Le Césarin) and sold in Lidl, packaged in a 400 g tray. It belongs to the processed‑meat group, carries a Nutri‑Score of E and is classified as NOVA 4, reflecting its ultra‑processed status; per 100 g it is high in fat (39 g), saturated fat (16 g) and salt (4.5 g) while providing 23 g of protein and only 2.1 g of sugars. The high protein content and low sugar can be appealing, but the very high saturated fat and salt, together with the presence of lactose, potassium nitrate and possible nut traces, make it unsuitable for low‑salt, low‑fat or milk‑allergy diets.
