About Pepperoni, pork, beef
Pepperoni is an American-style cured sausage of pork and beef, seasoned with paprika and chilli for its signature red color and gentle heat. Sliced thin, it crisps and curls in the oven, which is exactly why it is the most popular pizza topping there is.
It is one of the richest cured meats by the numbers — close to 494 calories per 100 grams — because it is high in fat, and it is heavily salted as part of curing. There is protein and some B12 and zinc in there too, but pepperoni is firmly in indulgence territory, with saturated fat and sodium running high.
A scattering over a pizza or into a pasta adds a lot of flavor for a small weight of meat. As a processed, fatty, salty food, it is one to enjoy as a topping or treat rather than a staple.
