About APPLEWOOD SMOKED CLASSIC CUT BACON
Market Pantry Applewood Smoked Classic Cut Bacon is a conventionally cured pork bacon product sold under Target Stores' Market Pantry private-label brand, categorized under Bacon, Sausages and Ribs. This product is processed with a standard curing brine and applewood smoke flavor to produce a classic American-style smoked bacon.
The declared ingredients list the curing components rather than pork meat, which is a standard labeling convention for cured meats where the meat itself is understood as the product. The cure solution contains water, salt, and sugar as the base. Sodium phosphate is added to improve water retention and texture. Sodium erythorbate is used as a curing accelerant that helps stabilize the pink cured color and acts as an antioxidant. Sodium nitrite is the curing agent responsible for food safety preservation, color development, and the characteristic flavor of cured pork products. Sodium nitrite converts to nitric oxide in the meat, binding to myoglobin to produce the pink cured color.
