Deli Meats and Cheese Sticks

[Guest guest]

Are there any legal deli meats? Obviously ham wouldn't be legal, but

does anyone get roast beef or turkey from the deli?

Sorrento has come out with cheddar cheese sticks (individually wrapped

like the mozzarella sticks that are so popular with the kids).

Ingredients: Pasteurized Milk, Cheese Cultures, Salt, Enzymes and

colored with tto. Would these be legal?

Thanks,

Joan,

Not unless I want to be vilely ill, I don't.

Actually, if you can find real Italian prosciutto

(ingredients, pork and salt), you can purchase it.

For roast beef or turkey, better to buy am eye of

round or a turkey breast (check for injected

gunk!) and cook it yourself, then slice very thin

with a meat slicer or mandolin.

Probably. I don't see anything there which sets

off alarm bells, but I'm suspicious of

pre-packaged ANYTHING. All you could do is try a

couple (if cow milk products aren't an issue for you) and see what happens.

Thanks Marilyn. Hmm, another kitchen gadget to dream about.

Cow's milk isn't a problem for us. My youngest has been eating (and

loving) the cheese sticks. I doubt my son (actual target) will touch

them anyway. Of course now I'm staring at them and thinking - they're

so very orange, surely I can make them into something for the class

party at Halloween )
