What You Should Know

Found in the refrigerated deli case or pre-sliced lunchmeat aisle, this Oven Roasted Turkey is a go-to for quick sandwiches, school lunches, or simple weeknight meals. It feels wholesome and convenient with a nostalgic, lunchbox vibe. The soft, sliceable texture comes from added water and salt and the industrial slicing/packaging points to a processed product (NOVA 3) rather than an unprocessed whole meat.
