Which brands of ham should you choose in your diet? 60 million consumers answered the question by giving their opinion.
Ham is a food that is often found in the French fridge. But are they all the same? Find out what 60 million consumers think.
A food that hides its game well
The famous magazine 60 million consumers has given itself the mission of dissecting the labels of consumer products. Food, household or beauty products…
Experts examine all everyday consumer products every day. Recently, they studied the quality of olive oils on sale in our supermarkets. Color, smell, composition… All these criteria were analyzed so that the comparison magazine can give its verdict.
Because what goes into the composition of our plates is of capital importance. Indeed, eating is above all an act of health. It is also thanks to the food we eat that we stay in shape.
In a healthy diet, it is absolutely necessary to avoid dishes that are too fatty and also too rich in salt. Because this can lead to cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attacks or hypertension. It is therefore better to think twice before knowing what you plan to serve at the table.
Other foods appear a priori safe. But they hide their game well. This is the case with ham. This product, which fits easily into a sandwich, is rich in protein.
It has a content of 20% for cooked ham and 25% for raw ham. A slice can thus replace a portion of meat, fish or eggs in the diet.
However, it is not always very clean from a health point of view. Have you ever wondered why did the ham have this pink color? ? This is indeed far from being natural. It is due to the presence of nitrite salt. Otherwise, the ham would be the color of roast pork.
What kind of ham to eat according to 60 million consumers?
However, the consumption of sodium nitrites is not without consequences. Because in the more or less long term, they can be the cause of the appearance of colorectal cancer.
This is why it is imperative to buy the right brands of ham when shopping. To help buyers, 60 million consumers looked at the composition of supermarket ham brands.
First observation: a ham without nitrites is always sold more expensive. “You have to pay on average 20% more at E. Leclerc. And even an additional 65% at Auchan to buy a private label nitrite-free ham”reaches 60 million consumers.
However, in terms of its quality, the price justifies the few extra euros to pay. Ham without added additives tastes tastier. And it is also undeniably better for your health.
These brands to favor
For their part, 60 million consumers gave three good ratings to three different products. The first one to get a nice 15.5/20 is Fleury Michon ham, “I love ham”. It comes from pigs raised without antibiotics and fed without GMOs.
The second good student in this panel is once more a Fleury Michon ham. This is “stewed superior”. These are four slices without rind, with 25% less salt. It gets a B grade on the nutriscore.
Finally, “Le Bon Paris à l’étouffée superior quality” from Herta closes this ranking. Sold in sets of two slices, it also meets all the quality criteria retained by 60 million consumers.
