Sandwich Meat


Yenni

Recommended Posts

Yenni Enthusiast

I can't have dairy, so cheese is out. No soy/legumes either. I have been getting Hormel Natural Choice Deli Ham for my sandwich. Getting a little tired of it and would like to find something less processed or not at all processed, but I can't find or come up with any ideas.

I was told there is a pretty natural Chicken Sausage out there but none of the stores carry it in my town and I am not sure of the brand.

Does anyone make their own ham?

I tried to find a rice cheese, but they made dairy cheese on the same machines so that is out too.

Ideas would be great!

Tuna I had forgotten about. I never seem to have much left overs, should work on that. I go through everything so fast.

I do eat cucumber and bell pepers on my sandwish daily. Avocado gives me a stomach ache for some reason although I love it.. I wonder what family sprouts belongs too. Shouldn't be Legumes you'd think. I'll google it.

I'll look into the other ham brands. Thanks to you both!

You can get all kinds of sprouts - I prefer broccoli sprouts, myself. :) But some sprouts do come from beans (mung, in particular) so you'd have to be aware of what kind you were getting.

Jimmy Dean Breakfast Sausages are gluten-free and Purdue makes chicken strips that are precooked and packaged for salads, etc. Not all of the varieties, but some of them are gluten-free.

I realize they're not homemade -but they are alternatives in a pinch. It's easy to get in an eating rut and get tired of things!

I often just bake some chicken plain to cut up. I freeze some and then make a real quick chicken salad - either with salad dressing or mayo..... It's nice to have something I can just grab and go. I usually take some tostitos to scoop up the chicken salad.

I try to avoid deli meats, b/c the deli is always so crowded I don't entirely trust that they'll wipe down the machine to de-contaminate it before they slice mine.

Apple slices with PB are also a big stand by for me. Protein, fruit, and yum all in one.

In a real time cruch I use Hormel's microwavable kid's meal "Weiners and Beans" - only 1 1/2 min. to heat up and pretty filling.

Yeah, I am not doing the meats from the deli. Too paranoid of that and not feeling comfortable enough with this to ask thye to clean of the machine yet. I am the shy type.

Can't do peanut butter and I am allergic to apples so that is out. :P

Thanks for all the suggestions. Man do I eat a lot of Chicken already though . hehe ;)

They have a good product, but just watch out for cross contamination from the deli slicer.

I love their products too, just be careful about the slicers. I got CC's once because the slicer had been used to cut something I couldn't eat and then they cut my turkey. It was as plain as day to me after I ate it (duh!!) but for some reason I stood right there at the deli and watched her slice away without asking her to clean it!

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
