What it is
Pork is the culinary name for meat from the domestic pig. It is one of the most widely consumed meats globally. It can be prepared and consumed in various forms, including fresh cuts, cured products like bacon and ham, or processed into sausages and patties.
Why it's used
Pork is widely used in food manufacturing as a primary protein source and for its distinct flavor and texture. It is a common ingredient in breakfast items like sausages and bacon, as well as in sandwiches, frozen meals, and appetizers. Manufacturers use it to create savory and filling food products.
Health notes
Pork is a whole food and not a food additive, so it is not subject to FDA additive approval or GRAS status. The US Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2025-2030) recommend choosing lean meats as part of a healthy eating pattern. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified the consumption of red meat, which includes pork, as "probably carcinogenic to humans" (Group 2A), based on limited evidence that it can cause cancer in humans and strong mechanistic evidence. This classification applies to unprocessed red meat.
Allergen info
Pork is not considered one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA.
