Wieners, ham, bacon, and corned beef resist the accumulation of malonaldehyde due to their nitrite content


It's not the nitrites in those foods that bug me. I loved corned beef, but I think 1 serving is something like 50% of the RDA sodium. The ham I'm scared of sugars, and with the weiners I'm just scared in general unless they are 100% beef, pork or poultry

If you really need a salt fix I saw some salt pork in the store. 1 serving was around 85% RDA of sodium for the day. That is the US RDA which is almost double the UK RDA for sodium.
