Question

Is it okay to eat the hot dogs if they are fully cooked in the microwave/on the stove top? And same with the deli meat?

Answer 1

you can still eat them.ask your doctor.

Answer 2

They can contain the bacteria listeria.  If you heat the meat, (I think it's about 20 seconds) everything should be fine.
