Kirkland Signature Low Sodium Bacon, 4 x 1 lb

Kirkland Signature Bacon, Low Salt, Sliced, 1 lb (4-count) is made from pork belly that is carefully cured and sliced, with a reduced sodium formulation compared to traditional bacon. The curing process includes water and a moderated amount of salt to enhance flavor while keeping overall sodium lower. Sugar is included to balance the savory profile and support the curing process.

To maintain texture, juiciness, and consistency during cooking, sodium phosphate is used, while sodium erythorbate helps preserve color and freshness. The bacon is cured with sodium nitrite, which contributes to the characteristic bacon flavor and appearance, and is finished with natural smoke flavor to deliver a familiar smoky taste.

This ingredient profile reflects a classic cured bacon approach, adjusted to provide a milder salt level without sacrificing flavor or performance.
