What it is

Pork is the meat of a domestic pig. It is a common meat consumed worldwide. After slaughter, the meat is typically processed into various cuts or ground for further use.

Why it's used

Pork is a versatile ingredient used in many dishes. In processed foods, it often serves as a primary protein source, providing flavor and texture. It is commonly found in sausages, bacon, ham, and as a component in dishes like pizza and pasta sauces.

Health notes

Pork is a source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates pork products to ensure safety. Like other red meats, high consumption of processed pork products has been linked in some studies to increased risk of certain chronic diseases, though evidence is mixed and intake levels are key. The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified processed meats, including pork sausage, as carcinogenic to humans (Group 1).

Allergen info

Pork is not one of the nine major allergens designated by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
