What it is

Health notes

Bacon is a processed meat, and the World Health Organization (WHO) classifies processed meats as Group 1 carcinogens, meaning there is sufficient evidence that they cause cancer in humans. The US FDA has not set specific upper intake limits for bacon consumption. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated processed meats, but no specific numeric limits are set for typical consumption.

Allergen info

Bacon is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
