Prosciutto di Parma — OKAY
Munch or Dump rates Prosciutto di Parma by Citterio OKAY — score 62/90.
Just pork and sea salt, no additives or preservatives, but it's salt-cured red meat, so the sodium load is the real catch.
Why this verdict
- Only two ingredients: pork and sea salt, zero additives
- No added nitrates, nitrites, sugar, or chemical preservatives
- Very high sodium from salt-curing, around 35% of daily limit per serving
- Still processed red meat, best kept to small, occasional portions
Ingredients (2)
- Pork (moderate) — The meat base. A source of protein, but this cut is fatty and heavily salted once cured.
- Sea Salt (moderate) — Sodium source; no nutritional edge over regular salt.
