Unless there is some breed of oval log-shaped turkey out there that I'm not aware of, yes, the turkey you get at the grocery deli or in packages is processed as ****. Does it have the grainlines like real meat? No. Is there more than "turkey" listed on the ingredients? Yes.Originally Posted by pfar54

It's processed, and high in sodium. But other than that it's low fat/high protein, eat up.. just drink a lot of water.

Would say the same.Originally Posted by iBleedGreen
They put way more salt than necessary, but it's still better than some other types of "meat" you could get.

Watch out for nitrates. Other than that eat up.

Not all deli meat is processed (i.e., Boars head). But quality deli meat is way more expensive than comparable items. So instead of buying deli turkey, buy turkey cutlets and make them yourself.

My grocery store makes their own brand called Honeysuckle. It's not processed at all and has low salt and no sugar...
Ask the people at the deli which lunch meat is the least processed.Will rep back 250+

Boars Head Cracked Pepper Turkey is good stuff, I'm sure it's loaded with preservatives though. . . but . . . can't resist
