Summary

This product is ultra-processed, which limits its potential health score despite having a relatively short ingredient list. The presence of 'natural flavouring' is a concern due to its lack of transparency, which can include various processed substances. While it contains a high percentage of pork and minimal additives, the processing level and the use of vague flavoring terms impact its overall health rating.
