I'm refocusing on my diet yet again, and contemplating doing an almost whole30, but while I get ready for that I bought sliced turkey and a Kale salad mix for lunch today.
Imagine my consternation when I noticed that the turkey is 21% meat protein.
This led me to examine the packaging in more detail, and this is what it boils down to: a 53g serving (3 slices) equals 12g of protein and 1g of fat.
My instinctive reaction is that I should never eat deli meat again because it's almost as bad as lettuce for filler vs substance.
Before I commit to that, my second I stint is that I need to do more research. Because maybe, just maybe, a turkey weighing
5lbs only contains 1.5lbs of protein...
I'm a little sceptical, but very curious now about meat packaging processes!!
