How to Understand Nutritional Values in Hako Products:
A Guide for Informed Choices
Hako and Food Transparency: How to Make Informed Choices
At Hako, we believe it’s essential for our consumers to have clear and accurate information about the products they consume. Transparency is one of our core values, and our food labels are designed to help you understand the ingredients and nutritional values of each product. This guide will help you read and interpret label information in a simple and easy way.
1. Ingredients and Their Importance
Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight. This means the main ingredient appears first. In Hako products, high-quality meat is the main ingredient, ensuring an authentic and rich flavor.
- Natural Ingredients: Hako products are made with carefully selected ingredients, including fresh meat, natural spices, and high-quality elements to provide the best flavor.
- Allergens: For consumers with specific dietary needs, Hako labels clearly indicate the presence of allergens such as soy, gluten, or lactose.
2. Nutritional Values: What You Need to Know
Nutritional values on Hako products are usually listed per 100 grams, helping you compare products and understand how much of each nutrient you are consuming.
- Energy (Calories): Indicates how much energy the product provides, expressed in kilocalories (kcal).
- Total Fat: Plays a role in texture and flavor.
- Carbohydrates: Their quantity is typically low in Hako meat products.
- Sugars: Hako products contain no added sugar, maintaining a natural and authentic composition.
- Protein: A key nutrient for muscle maintenance and growth.
- Salt (Sodium): Important for product preservation and flavor.
3. How to Understand Portion Size?
Although nutritional values are usually given per 100 grams, Hako products may vary in weight. That’s why it’s important to read the label carefully and calculate your nutritional intake based on the amount consumed.
Example: If a salami pack weighs 150 grams and nutritional values are provided per 100 grams, multiply the values by 1.5 to get the accurate intake.
At Hako, our goal is to help you make informed and conscious choices. Our labels are clear and precise to ensure you have the right information for a balanced and healthy diet. We encourage you to always read the label to make decisions that match your lifestyle and dietary preferences.
