Johnsonville Mild Italian Sausages
Five raw pork links, and fennel is in the spice blend.
Johnsonville says this dinner sausage is made from pork, with basil named beside the fennel. A pack holds 5 sausages. Each 100 g link is 300 calories, with 14 g of protein and 630 mg of sodium.
The company started in Johnsonville, Wisconsin in 1945 and still says the sausage comes from that town. Cook them to 71°C. That is 160°F on the brand's own skillet directions.
Gluten is listed as 0 and the page says dairy free. Corn syrup is still in the sugars. The brand is American, so a Canadian grocery shelf does not make this a Canadian sausage.
