About BREAKFAST SAUSAGE
Kroger Breakfast Sausage is a beef-based fresh or frozen sausage product sold under the Kroger private label of The Kroger Co., available at stores including Kroger, Ralph's, King Soopers, Fred Meyer, Harris Teeter, and City Market. Most commercial breakfast sausages are pork-based; this product is notable for using beef as the primary meat, making it suitable for consumers who avoid pork.
The ingredient list is brief: beef, water, salt, spices, sugar, monosodium glutamate, flavorings, and BHA-BHT. Beef is the primary ingredient. Water is added as a processing aid and for moisture. Salt and spices provide the characteristic breakfast sausage seasoning profile. Sugar contributes mild sweetness. Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a flavor enhancer derived from glutamic acid fermentation, used to intensify the savory/umami notes of the sausage. BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole) and BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) are synthetic phenolic antioxidants used to prevent fat oxidation and rancidity in meat products during storage; both are approved food additives at regulated levels.
Per 100 grams, this breakfast sausage provides 304 calories, 21.43 grams of protein, 1.79 grams of carbohydrates, and 25 grams of fat. Calorie density is high, reflecting the fat content of the ground beef formulation. The product is free of pork, making it suitable for individuals avoiding pork for dietary or religious reasons (note: halal status would depend on certification). Not suitable for vegetarian or vegan diets. Contains MSG and BHA-BHT as notable functional additives.
