None of the additive groups we check appear on the recorded label, and no added sugars or flavors stand out. The maker describes it as gluten free, keto friendly, paleo friendly, sugar free and whole30; these are the maker’s statements, so look for the certifier’s seal on the package. For meat snack, the comparison that matters most is sodium per serving: many meat snacks provide 300–500 mg or more per serving; compare per ounce.
