"As we see a continued craze in the charcuterie category, consumers can feel confident in purchasing Margherita's dry sausage slices because they're made with delicious, 100 percent all-natural ingredients."
The new product assortment features three varieties: Uncured Italian Dry Salami, Uncured Pepperoni, and Uncured Genoa Salami, with a savory duo pack of Uncured Pepperoni and Uncured Genoa Salami. Crafted with 100 percent all-natural ingredients—including pork, beef, and authentic spices—the All-Natural Charcuterie Cuts deliver a flawless mix of flavorings for a true Italian taste, a press release stated.
Conveniently pre-sliced and expertly seasoned, the dry sausage selections enhance grazing boards and charcuterie platters, or can be enjoyed on their own as a protein-packed bite. Each 12 oz pack contains 6–10 g of protein per serving with no MSG, artificial flavorings, or colorings.
