About Pepperoni slices

Pepperoni slices are a popular topping in Italian-American cuisine, commonly used on pizzas, in sandwiches, and as a snack. Made from a mix of cured pork and beef, pepperoni is seasoned with paprika, garlic, chili powder, and other spices, which give it a bold, smoky flavor and vibrant red color. While flavorful, pepperoni is considered a processed meat and is relatively high in fat, sodium, and saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation. It provides protein and small amounts of vitamins and minerals such as iron and zinc, but its nutritional profile is less ideal for those monitoring heart health or sodium intake. Often enjoyed for its savory taste, pepperoni slices are best incorporated into a balanced diet alongside nutrient-rich foods like vegetables and whole grains.
