About HARDWOOD SMOKED UNCURED BACON, HARDWOOD SMOKED
Meijer Hardwood Smoked Uncured Bacon is a no-nitrate-added pork belly bacon product sold under the Meijer store brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The "uncured" designation indicates that this product does not contain synthetic sodium nitrite or sodium nitrate as curing agents; instead, it uses cultured celery extract as a natural source of nitrates to achieve the curing function, as permitted under USDA labeling regulations.
Ingredients are pork, water, sea salt, cane sugar, cultured celery extract, and spice extract. Cultured celery extract contains naturally occurring nitrates that convert to nitrites during the curing process, functionally mirroring the effect of added sodium nitrite while allowing the "no nitrites added" label claim. Sea salt and cane sugar replace the refined salt and dextrose used in conventionally cured bacon. Spice extract adds flavor complexity. No allergens are declared. The product contains minimal carbohydrates from the cane sugar and is compatible with gluten-free diets.
Per 100 grams, this product delivers approximately 375 calories, 33.3 grams of protein, 8.3 grams of carbohydrates, and 25 grams of fat. The carbohydrate content reflects the cane sugar in the cure. This is a notably leaner bacon option with a favorable protein-to-fat ratio, likely reflecting a leaner pork belly source or more aggressive trimming.
Meijer Uncured Bacon is prepared in the same manner as conventional bacon: pan-frying, baking, or air frying until the desired crispness is achieved.
Ingredients
PORK, WATER, SEA SALT, CANE SUGAR, CULTURED CELERY EXTRACT, SPICE EXTRACT.
