Why does Shuanghui ham sausage put sodium nitrite?

Sodium nitrite is an industrial salt, which is toxic. Excessive consumption can lead to poisoning and even death!

Nitrite is used as a colorant in the production of cooked food products (such as ham, all of which are available), which can make meat colorful! The content of nitrite in ham is restricted by the state!

As long as it is a big brand product with formal channels, there should be no problem! You can use it with confidence!

However, the current health concept no longer advocates long-term large-scale consumption of ham. After all, nitrite can cause cancer! It is ok to solve problems occasionally, and don't eat too much for a long time! Increase unhealthy factors! For reference only!
