Which are the HEALTHIEST cold cuts/lunch meat

Question

I want to give my children the healthiest cold cuts there are, I don't give it them often but when we go to the pool I like to bring sandwiches.

I would like the least amount of chemicals, preservatives and salt, etc.

Answer 1

Where I work we sell an all natural turkey breast. You can ask the people where you shop to show the nutrition facts from anything they slice.  

Answer 2

Probably some sort of light/lean turkey meat from a deli....not from the packages.

Answer 3

you could go to the deli, don't get the pre -packaged stuff, that's loaded with salt. the best way is to for example,  when I cook a roast beef for dinner, I usually take the leftovers and make sandwiches from that.

Answer 4

Turkey is by far the healthiest meat that you can give them! Low in fats, and also low in sodium!

Answer 5

Boar's head brand claims to be the best. I would check out their website: www.boarshead.com

I can attest to the fact that their meats (while not cheap) are extremely tasty. If you find a deli that sells them, they'll let you sample the different varieties at no charge.

Answer 6

Boars Head Dei meats have the least amount of preservatives and chemicals. Try to stay away from processed meats like bologna or salami and go for a whole meat like turkey, chicken, ham or roast beef or go with tuna, egg. To counter-act the nitrites in processed foods, always drink orange juice with you sandwich.
