With so many natural sausages on the market that exclude nitrites and nitrates from their products, why does Aidells still use sodium nitrite?

Sodium nitrite is an important ingredient in the curing process used to make sausages. It is one of the only curing products that kills clostridium botulinum, the microorganism that causes botulism, a deadly food born illness. We know there are plenty of "natural" sausage products that do not use nitrites because they see a marketing benefit to having a "chemical free" product. However, studies by the FDA and the USDA have determined that nitrite is a safe ingredient.

For us, using a small amount of nitrite to ensure that you get a safe product for you and your family far outweighs any benefit we might get from being able to label our product as "natural".
