About Pork, cured, ham, extra lean (approximately 4% fat), canned, unheated
Extra lean canned ham, at roughly four percent fat, is one of the leaner processed pork options available. Protein leads, fat plays a supporting role, and carbohydrates are essentially absent in the unheated form. It's cured and packaged, so sodium runs high - that's the trade-off for shelf stability and convenience. Slice it cold for sandwiches, cube it into bean soups, or dice it into fried rice. Rinsing or pairing with low-sodium sides helps balance the salt load.
