If you prefer to consume those addatives and preservatives then go ahead. I get chicken breast from a butcher shop, the ingredients are chicken and salt for processing.

dude take a look at the nutritional info on a package of chicken breast and then go to the boarshead.com website and click on the menu and the nutritional info for one of the meats... the sodium is outrageous and the preservatives, etc.

It's OK in the clutch, but habitual eating of deli meats is not the way to go.

No deli meats ever!! You never know exactly what you are eating
