Jones All Natural Maple Pork Sausages

I was very happy to see these sausages in the frozen food section of my local, large chain grocery store. I find that I have to eat some protein in the morning in order to feel good and not have issues with low blood sugar, and these are a perfect accompaniment to eggs, oatmeal or other hot breakfast fare.

The sausages are all natural and nitrite free. They contain no artificial ingredients. They simply contain pork, water, maple sugar, salt and natural flavorings. While they aren’t organic, they’re far superior than other conventional pork products.

This company also makes a pork sausage product that is stuffed with half rice, half pork, which results in a much lighter product that contains a lot less fat. They’re equally delicious and in fact I prefer their flavor because they’re not as greasy and cook with a slightly crispy skin.

Jones Little sausages are available in links and in patties. They’re a little pricier than other brands, but it’s worth it to get a product that isn’t full of preservatives and ingredients you can’t pronounce, much less want to eat.
