About Sliced deli meat
Sliced deli meat is a convenient protein option often used in sandwiches, wraps, and salads. Typically made from turkey, chicken, beef, or pork, it is seasoned and cured with various spices or brines. Its origins trace back to European charcuterie traditions, particularly in countries such as Germany and Italy where cured meats like salami and prosciutto are staples. Deli meats can be a good source of protein, iron, and B vitamins, but they may also contain added sodium, preservatives, and nitrites, especially in processed varieties. Opting for low-sodium, nitrate-free versions and choosing lean cuts like turkey or chicken can make deli meat a healthier choice. While easy to enjoy and versatile, moderation is key, as frequent consumption of highly processed deli meats has been linked to health concerns over time. Pairing it with whole-grain bread and fresh vegetables can help balance its nutritional profile.
