Salo is cured pork fatback, salted with garlic and spices and eaten in thin slices on rye bread, especially in Ukraine, Russia and Poland. A 20 g portion (two or three thin slices) gives about 150 kcal and 16 g of fat, about 6 g of it saturated, and about 540 mg of sodium; protein and vitamins are negligible. Nearly all of its energy comes from fat, and the salt content varies with the recipe.
