What it is
Beef and pork are common types of meat derived from cattle and pigs, respectively. These meats are obtained through standard agricultural practices and processing, providing a source of protein and fat.
Why it's used
Manufacturers incorporate beef and pork into various prepared foods primarily for their distinct flavors, textures, and nutritional content. They serve as a main ingredient in products like chili, soups, sausages, and other convenience meals.
Health notes
Beef and pork are not food additives but whole food ingredients. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2025-2030) suggest limiting saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories, and these meats can contribute to that intake. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies the consumption of red meat as "probably carcinogenic to humans" (Group 2A) and processed meat as "carcinogenic to humans" (Group 1). These classifications relate to dietary consumption patterns, not the regulatory status of the ingredients themselves.
