The rise of the clean eating trend is poised to propel the low-fat sausage market in the coming years. Clean eating involves choosing whole, minimally processed foods devoid of additives and artificial ingredients. This dietary approach is driven by increased health consciousness, a demand for transparent food sourcing, and a preference for natural and organic products. Low-fat sausages cater to this trend by providing healthier, minimally processed alternatives, including plant-based options, that meet consumer preferences for nutritious and natural foods. For example, according to statistics from the Organic Trade Association (OTA) in May 2023, organic food sales in the US surpassed $61.7 billion in 2022, marking a 4.3% increase from the previous year and exceeding the $60 billion mark for the first time. Consequently, the growth of the clean eating trend is stimulating demand in the low-fat sausage market.
