Chorizo

Breakdown

2 ingredients to watch

Hormel Chorizo scores 98/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Hormel Chorizo lists 9 ingredients, starting with Pork, Paprika, Garlic, Salt and Oregano. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 98/100 Hormel Chorizo sits in our top band, among the better meat & seafood we have scored. A higher-scoring option in meat & seafood is White Oak Pastures Organic Grassfed Ground Beef at 100/100.
