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.

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.

Learn about corn syrup, found here
Corn syrup is often used as a sweetener in processed food. It is NOT THE SAME as high fructose corn syrup. Don't be fooled when looking up the amount of sugar a product contains if corn syrup is listed as an ingredient. This is because corn syrup contains 50% sugar, and 50% of another form of carbohydrate known as "oligosaccharides", which is pretty close to sugar.If a product has less sugar than you think it should, but contains corn syrup in the ingredient list, you'll know that the missing carbs are those oligosaccharides, not much better.
