Deli meat, AKA cold cuts, AKA luncheon meats, are found everywhere and can be a brown bagger’s best friend – a 2 faced friend, with a dirty little secret, that is! Yup, despite it looking (and tasting) good, this friend doesn’t have your best interest in mind.

Take a look at the ingredients of this Oscar Mayer Roasted Turkey Breast Lunch Meat:

TURKEY BREAST, WATER, MODIFIED CORNSTARCH, CONTAINS LESS THAN 2% OF SODIUM LACTATE, SALT, SUGAR, SODIUM PHOSPHATES, CARRAGEENAN, NATURAL FLAVOR, SODIUM DIACETATE, POTASSIUM CHLORIDE, SODIUM ASCORBATE, SODIUM NITRITE, CARAMEL COLOR

EEK!!
