When entertaining, a platter of meat is a favourite of guests and easy to throw together. Both salami and kolbassa are smoked meats with excess sodium and should be eaten only on an occasional basis, but the extra lean ham kolbassa is a better choice. The kolbassa is made with lean pork, giving you fewer calories, less sodium and only one quarter of the fat.
