Prepared meats: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category includes a range of cooked and cured meats, often pre-sliced or ready to eat. Examples include cooked ham, turkey breast slices, and bacon. These products are typically found in the chilled section of a supermarket. When looking at the packaging, the ingredient list will show the primary meat source and any added ingredients such as water, salt, preservatives, or flavourings. The order of ingredients indicates their proportion by weight. Nutrition labels provide information on energy, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars, and salt content per serving. For products like bacon, salt content is a key consideration, as the NHS recommends adults consume no more than 6g of salt per day. Some processed meats may also be high in saturated fat. The presence of added sugars is usually low in this category, but can be present in some flavoured or cured products. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
