Salty! Has over 20% of the daily max
Americans consume 4000 mg of sodium daily when the maximum recommended amount is 2300mg for healthy adults. Many people should not exceed 1500mg. Most of the sodium (65%) in our diet comes from processed foods, not home cooking or the salt shaker. Excess sodium intake increases blood pressure, causes hypertension and other heart problems. That's why most of us need to cut back.

Highly Processed!
This product is highly processed. If you'll take a look at its ingredient list, you'll discover new words to add to your vocabulary. Many of theses ingredients are required to increase the shelf life of the product and improve the flavor that disappears when food is not fresh.

Learn about industrial caramel coloring
Homemade caramel is made by melting sugar in a saucepan. Brown coloring in sodas and some other products is not the same thing.Industrial caramel coloring is made by reacting sugars with ammonia and sulfites under high pressure and temperatures. The chemical reactions create 4-methylimidazole, which in government-conducted studies caused lung, liver, or thyroid cancer or leukemia in laboratory mice or rats. This is why California recently required foods containing caramel color to be labeled as potential cancer-causing agents. But you won't see this warning label any time soon - manufacturers simply reduced the use of caramel color enough that the labeling requirements no longer applied.Caramel color varies slightly between products - when in beer, sauces or baked goods it has just ammonia and when used in soft drinks, it has both sulfites and ammonia. Neither one is a "good" option.Bottom line: Choose something else, less controversial.

Lunch meats, why the bad rep?
Lunch/deli meats come in different levels of quality. Some are more processed than others. Some have more fat than others. Some are better cuts of meat than others. And some contain nitrites, which you really gotta watch out for. The commonality between all lunch meats is the large amount of salt they contain. As a simple example, 3 oz of sliced turkey contains 1000 mg of sodium!! That's almost half the recommended daily intake! Even our top rated product in this category still does not meet the recommended amount of sodium a product should contain (less than 120mg per 3 oz).Our advice? If you really can't live without your turkey on rye sandwich, try to have these meats in small amounts and and stick to the lower fat, less processed versions.

Watch the cholesterol...
While cholesterol has been shown to be less harmful than once believed, you should not consume more than 300mg a day. This product contains more than 10% of your daily cholesterol intake.If you're on a low cholesterol diet, make sure you pay attention to portion: 10% of your daily allowance can quickly become 50% when a hamburger turns into double cheeseburger. Trouble sticking to daily goals? Try limiting your meat, cheese and dairy intake to one item per meal and avoid items with multiple sources of cholesterol (like chicken with ham and cheese, breakfast sandwiches with sausage and cheese or bacon cheeseburgers). Opt for items like BLT's, chicken sandwiches with veggies and meatless pizza. Choose water and not milk for your main mealtime beverage.

Learn about Maltodextrin, found here
Maltodextrin is a polysaccharide that is used as a food additive. A polysaccharide is a type of carbohydrate. It is produced from starches of corn, wheat, potatoes or rice. Its flavor can be slightly sweet or almost flavorless. Maltodextrin is used as a bulking base for artificial sweeteners, for example in Jell-o it is used in conjunction with Aspartame and Acesulfame Potassium. It is also the bulking agent in Splenda.
