Corporate Responsibility

Healthy Options, Informed Choices

Carapelli

Hormel Foods offers a variety of wholesome quality products that can satisfy any meal or snack-time urge. For example, our protein offerings include pork, turkey, beef and chicken.

Hormel Foods and our subsidiaries are committed to providing healthy protein offerings; in fact, the Hormel® Natural Choice® deli sandwich foodservice offering contains 45 percent less sodium than regular deli sandwich meat. The lower-sodium level qualifies Hormel Natural Choice for use in hospitals and foodservice venues where low-sodium products are prevalent.

Other products include:

  • Valley Fresh® and Hormel® chunk meats offer low fat, low calorie choices
  • Herdez® and CHI-CHI’S® salsas are a low calorie, low fat, low sodium condiment or ingredient
  • Carapelli® olive oil offers a good source of monounsaturated fatty acids, “good fat”

The Benefits of Pork

Pork has become an increasingly versatile product—it provides consumers a lean, flavorful protein in salads, pasta dishes, stir-fry, sandwiches and more. In fact, six common cuts of pork, including the tenderloin, have 27 percent less saturated fat than they did 15 years ago.

A Variety of Turkey Options

Our Jennie-O Turkey Store® products have changed how people look at turkey. We offer products for every meal occasion, including deli-sliced sandwich meat, turkey burgers, fresh ground turkey or whole turkeys.
