⚠️ Watch-outs & how to enjoy it better
The honey glaze adds 4.3g of sugar per 100g, which can cause a blood-sugar spike if eaten alone, especially by those monitoring their glucose levels. It is also a processed meat, so it may contain added sodium; pairing it with fiber-rich vegetables or healthy fats can help moderate the glycemic impact.
