Smithfield Foods-owned Italian meat brand, Carando, has expanded its portfolio with the launch of a new line of premium all-natural dry sausage.

The range is available in three varieties: Italian Dry Salame, Pepperoni and Genoa Salame, along with a duo pack of Genoa Salame and Pepperoni. Made from "superior" cuts of meat and all-natural ingredients, the sausage is uncured and "well-seasoned for a classic Italian flavour," said the brand.

Each 5oz pack contains between 6g to 10g of protein per serving without adding MSG, artificial flavourings and ingredients or colourings.

Michael Lewandowski, brand manager for Carando at Smithfield Foods, said: "As experts in crafting authentic Italian meats, we're excited to introduce our Premium All-Natural Dry Sausage line, which features top-quality cuts and all-natural ingredients for unmatched flavour. Just in time for summer entertaining, these new charcuterie cuts are perfect for elevating any meal or antipasto platter, ensuring that gatherings, big or small, are noteworthy and delicious."

Carando's Premium All-Natural Dry Sausage are available at select retailers across the US for an SRP of $5.99.
