Original Pepperoni Pizza

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 4 ingredients to avoid

Hormel Original Pepperoni Pizza scores 5/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 18g protein. 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 Original Pepperoni Pizza lists 13 ingredients, starting with Pork, Beef, Salt, Water and Dextrose. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

489 kcal per serving, or 1748 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Hormel Original Pepperoni Pizza on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 5/100 Hormel Original Pepperoni Pizza scores worse than most deli & cured meats we have scored. A higher-scoring option in deli & cured meats is Dietz & Watson Originals Organic Roasted Turkey Breast at 100/100.
