When all you want is a ham sandwich!

Question

I've been craving turkey so bad but refuse to eat it.

Eat in moderation and just make sure you keep it a correct temp and stuff. You can always microwave it to make sure you kill any possible bacteria.

Answer

I never knew lunch meat was an issue. I have never stopped eating it before!

Answer

You can eat it but you have to heat the lunch meat up.

Answer

It's advised not to eat it from a Deli because you can't be sure how often and how well they clean the meat cutter, as well as what is also being cut there. Also maybe the preservatives might be a concern? But in terms of listeria, store bought lunch meat should be okay. If you're still worried I'd just put it in the microwave for 30 sec and then let it cool if you don't like it hot.
