Sausages, premium, fried in vegetable oil

Premium sausages are processed meat products, described here after frying in vegetable oil. They mainly provide fat and protein, with a small amount of carbohydrate. Per 100g, they contain 20g of fat, including 7.5g of saturated fat, along with 18g of protein and 1.4g of salt.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Fat provides energy, and the saturated fat and salt content are worth noting for people monitoring these in their diet. Frying oil contributes to the total fat content, although amounts can vary with preparation. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
