Irish Pork Sausages

Irish Pork Sausages are a processed meat product made primarily from Irish pork, water and rusk, packaged in beef collagen casings. They belong to the processed meat category and carry a Nutri‑Score of E and a NOVA rating of 4, reflecting high levels of fat (27.4 g), saturated fat (10.5 g) and salt (1.9 g) per 100 g, while providing modest protein (8.7 g) and fiber (1.1 g). The formulation also contains several additives such as sodium sulphite, monosodium glutamate, carmine and sodium ascorbate, which contribute to its ultra‑processed status and may be a concern for some consumers.
