Which brand of ham is uncured?

4 min read
According to the USDA, what is labeled as "uncured" ham is actually cured using natural nitrates derived from sources like celery powder and sea salt. This essential distinction explains why products like Applegate and Pederson's Farms are sold as uncured, offering a different, often milder flavor profile than traditionally cured varieties.
