Meat and Savory Industry

Includes all of the cheese, meat, and prepared foods used, produced, and prepared in the United States. An easy way of differentiating between the sweet goods industries and the meat and savory industry is 'If you add salt, it is meat and savory, and if you add sugar it is sweet goods.' The meat and savory industry includes prepared vegetables; mixed and dry soups, gravies, sauces; instant meals; refrigerated frozen foods; salad dressings; stuffing mixes; dips; tenderizers; pickles and other condiments; and meats. Other industrial segments are the snack food industry, pet and animal feed industry, health care industry, and beverage industry.
