Abstract

Consumer perception of meat and meat products is a critical issue for the meat industry because it directly impacts on its profitability. The relationship between consumer perception of quality and the food industry’s drive to satisfy consumer needs. Many valuable scientific contributions which have been widely taken up by the industry have indeed improved the consumer perception of meat and meat products particularly in terms of safety, quality and product stability (Stavros and Panagiotis 2015). In the case of processed meat products such as hams, bacon,
frankfurters, bologna and others that are typically cured by the addition of sodium/ potassium nitrite or nitrate the requirements for natural or organic labeling do not permit the addition of nitrite or nitrate. Nitrite, added directly or derived from nitrate is a unique, distinctive cured meat ingredient for which there is no substitute, consequently significant process and product changes are necessary to produce natural or organic processed meats that provide consumers with the properties expected of traditional cured meat products.
