About BRAISED PORK CARNITAS
Sam's Choice Braised Pork Carnitas is a complete frozen meal sold under Walmart's Sam's Choice premium private-label brand, in the Frozen Appetizers and Hors D'Oeuvres category. Carnitas is a Mexican slow-braised or slow-roasted pork preparation, traditionally made by simmering pork in lard or oil until tender and crispy. This product provides a full plate meal with fiesta rice, pork carnitas, and salsa verde.
The fiesta rice component is made from cooked white rice combined with fire roasted sweet corn, cooked black beans, onion, and bell peppers, seasoned with a blend that includes whey powder, lime juice powder (corn syrup solids and lime juice solids), dehydrated garlic, yeast extract, and dehydrated cilantro. The pork carnitas component is a processed pork preparation with water, soybean oil, salt, dextrose, sodium phosphates for moisture retention, onion powder, garlic powder, and carrageenan as a stabilizer. The salsa verde is a tomatillo-based green sauce with roasted poblano pepper, garlic, brown sugar, onion, modified cornstarch, chicken broth, cilantro, and spices, acidulated with lime juice concentrate and citric acid, and stabilized with xanthan gum.
