Is turkey healthy?

[RESmonkey]

I've been eating like turkey sandwiches almost everyday (rye bread + fresh cut turkey + tomoato + pickel). Not much healthy food here at university, but is it alright if I eat
turkey like everyday?

It's not fried turkey, or anything. Just sliced/cut white-pinkish turkey.

Good thing I question nothing.

The worst thing you are eating is those tomatoes.

They are no longer safe to eat thanks to how much salmonella they contain.

The Turkey is dead. Not Healthy IMO, but then again I'm no vetinarian.

"Had" in what sense, and just how fondly? :shocked:

turkey is middle of the pack ranking 70th on WHOs list.

 

[alkemyst]

everytime I have had turkey it's been dead, not really that healthy.

Yup turkey is healthy. It's a lean meat (lean steak, chicken, turkey, tuna, etc.). But it also depends on the way it's cooked - deep-fried probably isn't too good for you

are you eating slices from a baked turkey or are you eating turkey deli meat?

this is a good question. deli/luncheon meat is not healthy.

I think it's interesting that turkey is the number one sandwich meat in America but, the only time most folks eat turkey other than in a sandwich is during Thanksgiving. It's kind of like eating burgers all year and only eating a steak on groundhog day.

 

[idiotekniQues]

get nitrate free deli meat.
