Jimmy Dean Maple Premium Pork Sausage



We normally reserve this for weekends for some reason. All of us like it. It has a mild maple flavor, not too sweet. Just about right.

Like virtually all sausage, it has some sugar in it. It is part of the curing process and is all but unavoidable.

The label says 2 ounces cooked is a serving with 1 gram of carbs and there are 6 servings in this one pound package. I usually cut the one pound package into 8 pieces for frying. Each piece is about 2 ounces pre-cooked. I figure each of the 8 chunks is about 3/4 of a gram of carbs, mostly sugar. Not too bad for a low carb diet. But would limit it to a few times a week anyway.

We get it at WalMart. I think lately it has been about $2.69 a package. We have it just about every weekend, and have for a couple of years.
