There may be a manufacturer's website for this low-grade chorizo. But after scrolling down a couple of Google search pages, it did not present itself.
It is easier to find retail sites that sell and it health site and criticize it. Fooducate was not impressed. It gave the chorizo a D+ overall, noting that it is very high in cholesterol, nitrites and nitrates, and "one of the worst products in its category.

However, once you heat it on a grill, the portion shrinks away. Most of it is grease that you would be well advised to let drip off the pan into the garbage.
Fool that I was, I left most of it on the grill to soak into the peppers and eggs.
To some extent, all chorizos are really more of a seasoning than an actual protein portion, but this is ridiculous.
It will give a breakfast taco flavor, I'll give it that. But if you're looking for something more substantial, or a meat product that won't have your doctor scolding you, try something else.
That's the stuff you buy because you either don't know how or you don't have time to make homemade Mexican chorizo. I've had this before with eggs, cheese and pepper sauce all rolled up on a flour tortilla. Oh and the pork is even worse.
