Product Insights
This French dry-cured sausage, marketed as "Saucisson", belongs to the processed meat category (PNNS group: Processed meat) and is packaged in a disposable plastic film with a protective gas. It carries a Nutri-Score of E and is classified as NOVA 4, reflecting its high levels of fat (about 18 g/100 g), saturated fat (12 g/100 g) and salt (5 g/100 g) alongside modest protein, low sugar, and the presence of lactose, pork, and the preservatives sodium nitrite and potassium nitrate. While it is gluten-free and free of added colourings, the elevated saturated fat, salt, and ultra-processed nature make it advisable to consume it sparingly within a balanced diet.
