Lotte Wellfood (formerly Lotte Confectionery) announced on the 27th that its representative meat processing brand, 'Uiseong Garlic Ham,' will introduce a 'full protein content labeling' system. This means that the protein content will be displayed on the front of the Uiseong Garlic Ham brand product packaging to make it easier for consumers to understand.

The full protein content labeling will start with the Uiseong Garlic Ham 440g product and is planned to be applied to all Uiseong Garlic brand products by the third quarter.


Meat processed products such as ham and sausage are easily thought of as convenient side dishes for the whole family, but the perception of them as foods for protein intake is relatively weak. High-quality meat processed products, including Uiseong Garlic Ham, are rich in protein, easy to cook, and delicious, making them excellent sources of protein intake.


Uiseong Garlic Ham contains 13.6g of protein per 100g. This level is equal to or exceeds the protein content of representative high-protein foods such as eggs or tofu, showing that high-quality meat processed products can also be considered excellent high-protein foods.



A Lotte Wellfood official stated, "We plan to continuously promote Uiseong Garlic Ham as a convenient yet delicious high-protein food for various situations such as side dishes and snacks," adding, "We will strive to provide healthier-feeling and nutritionally rich premium meat processed products."
