Primo Taglio

The Primo Taglio Mozzarella Cheese and Proscuitto Ham earns a rating of 3 out of 5 green leaves on our scale. This product offers a straightforward combination of cultured pasteurized milk, salt, and enzymes for the mozzarella cheese, paired with pork and sea salt for the prosciutto. It stands as an average choice for consumers seeking cleaner food options.

The cheese and prosciutto duo is not organic, which results in a deduction in our rating system. The presence of non-organic ingredients often means that there could be exposure to pesticides and fertilizers that are not allowed in organic farming. Additionally, the lack of non-GMO verification marks another setback for this product. GMOs, or genetically modified organisms, are a concern for many consumers who prefer food produced through traditional breeding methods.

Despite these deductions, the product maintains simplicity in its ingredient list, which is a positive aspect. The mozzarella cheese is made from milk that has been cultured and treated with enzymes, common practice in cheese-making. The proscuitto, an Italian dry-cured ham, consists solely of pork and sea salt, without additional preservatives or fillers. This simplicity aligns with the preferences of consumers looking for food with recognizable and minimal ingredients.

Customers who prioritize organic and non-GMO foods might find this product lacking. However, those who are looking for a product with a short and clean ingredient list may appreciate this offering. The 3 out of 5 green leaves rating reflects the product’s position as a middle-of-the-road option within the market of cleaner food choices. It does not stand out as exemplary, but neither does it fall into the category of unhealthy or overly processed foods. This product is a viable option for those making a gradual transition towards cleaner eating habits.
