Pork Sausage

Breakdown

5 ingredients to avoid

Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage scores 20/100 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. 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.

Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage lists 14 ingredients, starting with Pork, Water, Salt, Spices and Dextrose. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 20/100 Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage scores worse than most meat & seafood we have scored. A higher-scoring option in meat & seafood is Simply Nature Organic Uncured Beef Hot Dogs at 100/100.
