I don't eat meat

turkey with salami. on wonder bread

but the current supply is going bad in the fridge because I don't seem to maintain any interest in any particular food anymore. it comes and goes.

Gave it up because of the salt, but I miss it.

You know how that goes.

His eating habits contributed to him dying of a heart attack at age 56 and a few months.

We sent it to the Russians by the shipload during WWII, their troops loved it, but then again they talked about the pleasure of eating lard on bread. Another similar product that made it to my childhood table was called "potted meat." Apparently it was made of every part of an animal that a person would not knowingly eat separately.

Added to my grilled cheese sammich

a.k.a. capicola

And a little horseradish on a Chicago hard roll. With butter, please.

To be sophisticated and hide my impoverished southern Arkansas upbringing!

it isn't appetizing at all
In Kentucky we say the only part of the pig we don't eat is the squeal.

Next favorite is cracked pepper turkey breast.

I could go for a good hot pastrami on rye with some Gulden's right about now

I also like a good roast beef. If I’m buying cheaper lunch meat then nothing beats good ole’ bologna.

Mainly because that is the only lunch my Mother bought and I got sick of it.

My mom also gave it to me seemingly every day. I hated Bologna until I was about 35 and now I love it!

Once or twice a yr, I might buy some salami- but I know it’s unhealthy. I would rather cook up a good grass fed steak and cut it in thin lunch meat slices.

basis. and no researchers or doctors names were given. except for the World Health Organization. I would imagine that the US has a better standard of meat processing than a lot of other countries. I like hard evidence. You provided us with a six sentence paragraph.

I personally gave them up decades ago. Not worth taking a chance. Only whole, chemically free foods for me.

It's required for a real Cuban Sandwich, along with Genoa Salami and boiled ham.

A place here makes them using pulled pork barbecue and they are good

Any deli sandwich meat is good, and healthy too!

site to discuss things. Different links will show different information. Moderation is key.

I missed that so much when we moved from BOston

I also like Black Forest Ham . It is very low in fat, and thusly Weight Watcher points.
Thinly sliced turkey breast.
Pastrami and Corned beef

It’s a Pittsburgh thing.

There’s a dearth of sandwiches in Coasts Rica.

So I’ll take any from above.
