There is no doubt that there is a ‘craze’ about bacon in the past few years where many have labelled it as ‘bacon mania’. This craze has been supported by the slogan “everything tastes good with bacon” with top chefs creating out of the box recipes using the main ingredient as bacon. Bacon has become an entity and industry of its own. Where does Beretta fit in with this craze? Well, Beretta has a bacon family and depending on your bacon needs, Beretta’s got it!
All Beretta bacon is nitrate-free. But what exactly are nitrates? Nitrates are used as specific additives to stop the growth of bacteria and to add more flavour and color to foods. A lot of meat companies will use nitrates for their meat in order to get the ‘pink’ colour and prevent bacteria. In Canada, if you claim to have an ‘organic’ label, you are not allowed to add nitrates. No nitrates added except those naturally occurring in the cultured celery/ingredients.
A list of all Beretta Nitrate-free bacon is as follows:
-
