About KROGER, PEPPERONI, SLICED
Kroger Sliced Pepperoni is a cured deli meat from the Kroger store brand made from a pork and beef blend, seasoned with spices, dextrose, lactic acid starter culture, and oleoresin of paprika for color. Sodium ascorbate serves as a curing accelerator, and sodium nitrate is the primary curing agent for food safety, shelf life, and the characteristic pink-red color of cured meats. BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole) and BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) are both present as synthetic antioxidant preservatives to protect the fat from oxidation — the presence of both BHA and BHT together is worth noting for consumers who prefer to limit synthetic preservatives.
Allergen note: no wheat, dairy, soy, nuts, eggs, or sesame are listed. Pork and beef are the proteins. Sodium nitrate is a processed meat preservative that has been associated with increased colorectal cancer risk in high-consumption studies, a consideration for frequent processed meat consumers.
Nutritionally, this pepperoni is calorie-dense at approximately 467 calories per 100 g, with 20 g protein, 43.3 g fat, and 3.3 g carbohydrates. The high fat content is characteristic of cured pork-beef sausage products. It is a classic pizza topping, sandwich meat, and charcuterie component. Used in thin slices, the per-serving calorie contribution is manageable within a balanced diet.
