Crediting Deli and Other Processed Meat Products in Child and Adult Care Food Programs The serving size of processed meats such as deli meats (turkey, chicken, roast beef), sausages, pepperoni, salami or hot dogs used in Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) meals and snacks must provide the required amount of the meat/meat alternate component (m/ma). The composition of these processed meats must be known in order to properly credit and serve the appropriate amount to participants. Some processed meat products have a standard of identity. As long as these products do not contain by- products, cereals, binders, extenders or fillers, find their crediting information in the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Buying Guide. These by-products include: • Hot/dogs/frankfurters • Pork sausage • Bologna • Ham and Turkey Ham • Vienna sausage • Canadian bacon For all other processed meat products, Sponsors need a Child Nutrition (CN) label or product formulation statement (PFS) to verify the amount of creditable meat. (Reference Child Nutrition (CN) Labels and Product Formulation Statements Documentation Requirements for more information). For example, one brand of deli meat might require 1.6 ounces to credit as 1 ounce of the m/ma component, while another brand might require 2.3 ounces to credit as 1 ounce of the m/ma. Examples of products that would require a CN or PFS: • Turkey Deli meats do not have a standard of identity. Ingredients: Turkey breast, water, cultured dextrose, honey, contains less than two percent of potato starch, sea salt, vinegar, cultured celery juice, cherry power. • Frankfurters do have a standard of identity but this brand contains modified food starch, which is a binder. (See Table 1 below) Ingredients: Beef, water, modified food starch contains two percent or less of cultured corn sugar, vinegar, flavorings, dextrose, sea salt, celery juice, lactic acid starter culture, spices, sodium, sodium phosphates, extract of Paprika. 05/2020 1 Table 1 – Examples of by-products, binders, extenders, cereals and fillers.

CHAPTER-2 Charcutierie Introduction: Charcuterie (From Either the French Chair Cuite = Cooked Meat, Or the French Cuiseur De
CHAPTER-2 Charcutierie Introduction: Charcuterie (from either the French chair cuite = cooked meat, or the French cuiseur de chair = cook of meat) is the branch of cooking devoted to prepared meat products such as sausage primarily from pork. The practice goes back to ancient times and can involve the chemical preservation of meats; it is also a means of using up various meat scraps. Hams, for instance, whether smoked, air-cured, salted, or treated by chemical means, are examples of charcuterie. The French word for a person who prepares charcuterie is charcutier , and that is generally translated into English as "pork butcher." This has led to the mistaken belief that charcuterie can only involve pork. The word refers to the products, particularly (but not limited to) pork specialties such as pâtés, roulades, galantines, crépinettes, etc., which are made and sold in a delicatessen-style shop, also called a charcuterie." SAUSAGE A simple definition of sausage would be ‘the coarse or finely comminuted (Comminuted means diced, ground, chopped, emulsified or otherwise reduced to minute particles by mechanical means) meat product prepared from one or more kind of meat or meat by-products, containing various amounts of water, usually seasoned and frequently cured .’ A sausage is a food usually made from ground meat , often pork , beef or veal , along with salt, spices and other flavouring and preserving agents filed into a casing traditionally made from intestine , but sometimes synthetic. Sausage making is a traditional food preservation technique. Sausages may be preserved by curing , drying (often in association with fermentation or culturing, which can contribute to preservation), smoking or freezing.

We focused speciﬁcally on comparing a conventional ham and a new hypothetical antioxidant-enriched ham with a reduced risk of provoking colorectal cancer. Study participants were given descriptions of the two hams before carrying out successive rounds of willingness-to-pay (WTP) assessments. The results show that WTP was higher for the antioxidant-enriched ham than for the conventional ham. WTP estimates were also impacted by providing additional information about the reduction in colorectal cancer risk associated with the antioxidant-enriched ham. Based on the participants’ WTP, we came up with ex ante estimates for the social impacts of introducing the antioxidant-enriched ham onto the market, and we suggest that it would be socially optimal to promote the product. Competition arising from pre-existing product labelling and marketing assertions could greatly limit the market potential of antioxidant-enriched ham, which suggests that alternative approaches may be necessary, such as regulations mandating antioxidant enrichment. These results also concern all countries with high Citation: Marette, S.; Guéraud, F.; levels of meat consumption.

3Rd Tri Lunch and Deli Meats Webinar Handout
LUNCH AND DELI MEATS IN THE CACFP Processed meats, such as deli meat and hot dogs, are products that may contain added liquids (such as water or broth) or other types of fillers to help enhance flavor and preserve or extend the product's shelf life. Are Processed Meats Creditable? Not every ingredient in processed meats is considered a Meat or Meat Alternate. In order to credit a lunch or deli meat, the composition of these products must be known so the correct portion can be served. To know the amount of a product that can be credited toward the Meat/Meat Alternate component, a Child Nutrition (CN) label or a Product Formulation Statement (PFS) may be needed. For example, one lunch meat variety may require 1.8 ounces of meat in order to credit as 1 ounce of Meat/Meat Alternate, whereas another may need 2.4 ounces of meat to credit as 1 ounce of the Meat/Meat Alternate component. Some processed meats have a Standard o f Identity. These meat products have crediting information that can be found in the USDA Food Buying Guide. As long as they do not contain by-products, cereals, binders, extenders or fillers, these items are creditable without a CN label or Product Formulation Statement. Foods with a Standard of Identity include: Hot Dogs Pork Sausage Bologna Ham and Turkey Ham Vienna Sausage Canadian Bacon Standard of Identity Legal definition of what a food actually is. Standards of identity help consumers identify the product they are purchasing. Example: "Canned Tuna" must legally be tuna and not a different type of fish.

Chapter 18 : Sausage the Casing
CHAPTER 18 : SAUSAGE Sausage is any meat that has been comminuted and seasoned. Comminuted means diced, ground, chopped, emulsified or otherwise reduced to minute particles by mechanical means. A simple definition of sausage would be ‘the coarse or finely comminuted meat product prepared from one or more kind of meat or meat by-products, containing various amounts of water, usually seasoned and frequently cured .’ In simplest terms, sausage is ground meat that has been salted for preservation and seasoned to taste. Sausage is one of the oldest forms of charcuterie, and is made almost all over the world in some form or the other. Many sausage recipes and concepts have brought fame to cities and their people. Frankfurters from Frankfurt in Germany, Weiner from Vienna in Austria and Bologna from the town of Bologna in Italy. are all very famous. There are over 1200 varieties world wide Sausage consists of two parts: - the casing - the filling THE CASING Casings are of vital importance in sausage making. Their primary function is that of a holder for the meat mixture. They also have a major effect on the mouth feel (if edible) and appearance. The variety of casings available is broad. These include: natural, collagen, fibrous cellulose and protein lined fibrous cellulose. Some casings are edible and are meant to be eaten with the sausage. Other casings are non edible and are peeled away before eating. 1 NATURAL CASINGS: These are made from the intestines of animals such as hogs, pigs, wild boar, cattle and sheep. The intestine is a very long organ and is ideal for a casing of the sausage.

Q&A on the Carcinogenicity of the Consumption of Red Meat
Q&A on the carcinogenicity of the consumption of red meat and processed meat Q. What do you consider as red meat? A. Red meat refers to all mammalian muscle meat, including, beef, veal, pork, lamb, mutton, horse, and goat. Q. What do you consider as processed meat? A. Processed meat refers to meat that has been transformed through salting, curing, fermentation, smoking, or other processes to enhance flavour or improve preservation. Most processed meats contain pork or beef, but processed meats may also contain other red meats, poultry, offal, or meat by-products such as blood. Examples of processed meat include hot dogs (frankfurters), ham, sausages, corned beef, and biltong or beef jerky as well as canned meat and meat-based preparations and sauces. Q. Why did IARC choose to evaluate red meat and processed meat? A. An international advisory committee that met in 2014 recommended red meat and processed meat as high priorities for evaluation by the IARC Monographs Programme. This recommendation was based on epidemiological studies suggesting that small increases in the risk of several cancers may be associated with high consumption of red meat or processed meat. Although these risks are small, they could be important for public health because many people worldwide eat meat and meat consumption is increasing in low- and middle-income countries. Although some health agencies already recommend limiting intake of meat, these recommendations are aimed mostly at reducing the risk of other diseases. With this in mind, it was important for IARC to provide authoritative scientific evidence on the cancer risks associated with eating red meat and processed meat.
