Sainsbury's Oak Smoked Dry Cured British Bacon Medallions

Breakdown

Processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

Sainsbury's Oak Smoked Dry Cured British Bacon Medallions scores 37/100 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.

Sainsbury's Oak Smoked Dry Cured British Bacon Medallions lists 6 ingredients, starting with British Pork, Sea Salt, Sugar, Preservative (Sodium Nitrite) and Sodium Nitrate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 37/100 Sainsbury's Oak Smoked Dry Cured British Bacon Medallions 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.
