      If you live here in the Nordics, Snellman and sometimes HK has bacon with no phosphates.

      you could look at local CSAs (community supported agriculture) and get a local, unprocessed source of meat that way if you’re committed to meat

      but in general meat is shown to be unhealthy, associated with higher risks of colon cancer, etc. (I need to fact check this, but I think the big picture advice is aligned with most medical associations’ suggestions that a plant based diet is much healthier and reduces health risks).
