Johnsonville Mild Italian Sausage is a high-quality pork sausage offering a rich, authentic Italian flavor in each bite.
The product contains 260 calories per link, making it a moderate choice for a meal or snack. However, its high sodium content (570 mg) and added sugars (2 grams) suggest it may not be the healthiest option, potentially contributing to higher blood pressure and sugar intake.
Based on its ingredients, including pork broth with natural flavorings, dextrose, and artificial additives like BHA and propyl gallate, this product appears to be ultra-processed. The extensive use of additives and preservatives indicates a high level of processing aimed at enhancing shelf life and taste.
For a healthier alternative, consider choosing turkey or chicken sausages with lower sodium and sugar content, providing a more nutritious and balanced meal option.
