(firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwire) -- 12/15/11 -- (Family Features) Americans love their pepperoni. In fact, the Italian-American creation has become the most popular pizza topping in the U.S. But when it comes to pepperoni, pizza isn't the only use for the popular ingredient. Americans have found additional methods for incorporating pepperoni into snacks, side dishes and flavorful main dishes as well.
Now, pepperoni lovers have a lower-sodium alternative for all their pizza and snacking needs. Armour has introduced a new lower-sodium pepperoni that uses a breakthrough, all-natural sodium replacer.

"Pepperoni is a great way to add flavor and variety to holiday dishes," says A.J. Miller, senior brand manager with the John Morrell Food Group. "Our lower-sodium pepperoni offers an alternative for people interested in healthier lifestyles, while giving them the great taste of the pepperoni they love."
