Blanc de poulet

Blanc de poulet is a sliced cooked chicken breast ham made primarily of French chicken fillet (approximately 88.5%) combined with water, salt, dextrose and two food additives. It carries a Nutri‑Score of B, offers a high protein content of 20 g per 100 g and low sugars and saturated fat, but is classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and contains a relatively high salt level of 1.7 g per 100 g. The product’s additives include sodium nitrite (E250) as a preservative and ordinary caramel (E150a) as a colour, which are the main points of concern despite its lean protein profile.
