Organic Mediterranean Style Chicken Sausage with Herbs & Spinach – This dairy and pork free organic chicken sausage embodies all the great flavors of the Mediterranean including lemon, oregano and garlic. Artfully crafted with exceptional ingredients, this link is mild and well rounded, making it a perfect addition to most any dish.
When Manuel Martins started Silva Sausage in 1967, his goal was to live his American dream by sharing his European traditions and techniques. He began selling Italian sausage, Spanish chorizo, and his legendary Portuguese linguiça to the small Portuguese community in San Jose. Manuel wanted to make the best sausage in the world. And Manuel was a perfectionist. It wasn’t unusual for him to sleep at the factory to oversee each step of production for each batch of links.
Word of his amazing products soon spread beyond the community, which meant that Silva’s humble beginnings were short lived. Retail customers and eating establishments had grown accustomed to Silva sausages that had flavors like no other sausages. Customer demand forced us to expand. Silva ended up buying the rest of the real estate on the block and building additional facilities. Manuel’s dream had come true—Silva was one of the West Coast’s premier sausage houses. Our products are now found at the finest restaurants, hotels, and high end grocery stores. We have also won our share of tasting events including the National Meat Association’s Gourmet Sausagefest. And Silva is still family owned but located in a new state of the art facility down the road in Gilroy, California. The product line and company have grown, but, Fifty One years later, our motto remains the same—”Tradition is Our Recipe.”

About Us :
Established in 2010, The Paleo Foundation was first organized for the purpose of improving the tolerability of the paleo diet, and to help adherents easily identify products that met its basic tenets. Since then, thousands of products have been certified through the Certified Paleo, Keto Certified, and lab -tested Grain-Free Gluten-Free certification programs.
Disclosures:
100% of Paleo Foundation revenue is generated through certifications. We do not accept donations, corporate sponsorships, or financially benefit from the sales of any certified products, product giveaways, or partnerships with industry contacts or retailers for the purpose of maintaining the integrity of an impartial certification standard.
Certified Paleo:
Certified Paleo:Each certification program has a different set of standards. Certified Paleo is the Paleo Foundation’s first, most popular, and highest level of certification for Paleo-compliant products. Certified Paleo Products are products that contain Paleo ingredients, but may have some 21st-century processing or packaging methods allowing for shelf stability.
Grain-Free Gluten-Free:
Grain-Free Gluten-Free: Grain Free Gluten Free Certified products are gluten-free and do not contain any grains of gliadin competitive residues. All Grain-Free Gluten-Free products have undergone two rounds of audits, including lab tests, and a final review to become approved for the Grain-free Gluten-free Certified Program.
Keto Certified:
Keto Certified: The ketogenic diet is a restrictive, demanding diet that can be difficult to maintain, and tolerability of the ketogenic diet is the single most important factor limiting individual acceptance for initiation. Therefore, improving the tolerability of the ketogenic diet is crucial to preventing diet discontinuation, warranting further investigation into methods for improving palatability, improving the availability and convenience of foods that are compliant with the ketogenic diet, as well as addressing cultural and social acceptance.
The Keto Diet product market may be in a unique position to improve tolerability, especially in social and cultural environments that typically feature carbohydrate-rich “special occasion” types of foods. In 2016, the Paleo Foundation launched the world's first Keto Certified program for products with standards that were developed for adherence to a classical ketogenic diet.
