Summary
This uncured honey ham is a processed product with a relatively clean ingredient list, featuring organic ham, honey, and sea salt. However, the presence of celery juice powder, which can convert to nitrites during processing, poses a health concern similar to synthetic preservatives. The product's processing level limits its score, despite the use of organic and natural ingredients.
