Lunchmeat - from the Deli or Pre-packaged?

[chewyxrage]

Which is better and why? No difference? I would expect the pre-packed to be more processed but who knows..... I like to throw a few peices of turkey in my eggs and other various things.

They should have the nutritional information on the deli stuff. I would just compare. I would be suprised if the deli stuff was worse than the pre-packaged meat, though.

same here. That pre-package stuff comes out all slimy and shit sometimes. That's what made me wonder wtf I was eating....

so much sodium

so much sodium

in both?

 

[Ish]

Yeah, they are both higher in sodium. One brand I get occasionally has around 340mg sodium in 2 oz of turkey. They do make low sodium deli meats too, if you need it.

 

[chewyxrage]

it's only a couple peices a day, not sure if I should be concerned or not. would you be?

 

[Ish]

I wouldn't. Unless I consumed alot of sodium throughout the rest of the day.
