I keep eating peperami' are they that bad for me?

Question

Does anyone factually know what goes into one, I have read the ingrediants, they don't seem so bad to me and I don't usually care but I keep snacking on them at work and I wonder how bad the meat is in them. Can someone please tell me if they are that bad?!

Answer 1

Like sausages, peperamis will have been made with all the bits of the animal that are left over when all the parts that people want to eat have been cut off the animal carcasses. Plus, peperamis contain additives.

Answer 2

Anything that looks like this can't be too good :

By the way, this was the image I received from a Google search of Peperami!

Answer 3

Ew, yeah not too good for you. High fat and lots of other rubbish but darned tasty!!! I eat them once in a while :)

Answer 4

I don't think the word 'bad' fits what peperami's are. I think that they are unhealthy if you snack on them too often. They are quite high in fat, and also, they have additives in them too. Try taking something more healthy to work like a piece of fruit, or them low calorie cereal bars.
