Density 32 · +10 vs Sausage & deli meats medianChicken spread scores 32 of 100 on the Nutrient Density Score, a Low band, though it still ranks 14th of 60 sausage and deli meats, comfortably above the category median of 22. Protein is its strong point, an excellent 36% DV per 100 grams for a spreadable product.
This is a shelf-stable, canned product meant to be spread on crackers or bread for a quick sandwich rather than served as a main course. A one serving portion is convenient for lunchboxes, but it is high in sodium at 722 milligrams per 100 grams, so it is worth checking the label if you are keeping an eye on that total.
