Pepperoni Nutrition Facts

Pepperoni is a meat food whose cut, visible fat, and raw or cooked state strongly affect its composition. It provides protein, monounsaturated fat, polyunsaturated fat, and potassium. Buy it refrigerated with intact packaging, follow the use-by date, and refrigerate promptly; once opened or cooked, use the FDA cold-storage chart rather than relying on smell alone.

Interesting fact

A Number That Means Dried

USDA specifications require pepperoni to reach a moisture-to-protein ratio of 1.6:1 or less. Hitting that means losing a large share of the original water, which is exactly why the protein, fat and salt figures per 100 grams sit so high.
