Frequently Asked Questions
Is salami healthy?
Salami provides protein and B12 but is high in saturated fat, sodium, and calories. Best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet rather than as a daily protein source.
What's the white stuff on salami?
The white coating is usually penicillium mold, which is safe and intentional - it protects the salami during aging and adds flavor. It's similar to cheese rinds.
