Peg541 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I searched here. I read labels. Nothing compliant. Any suggestions? Maybe try whole foods? Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Fresh roasted turkey might be one option at the Whole Foods deli counter. You'd need to grill them on whether it contains any nasties. Or turkey from a poultry farmer or butcher.Bottom line: deli turkey meat is very tricky to get Whole30 compliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Maryann Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I have found it much easier to roast a fresh turkey breast and then portion it up and freeze what I don't need immediately. I do the same with roast beef. The cost savings are enormous as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peg541 Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 When I read the label of a turkey breast I see all sorts of things. I'll take a look with my new whole30 eyes. Might be the answer. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeymom Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I bought my family some Organic Oven Roasted Turkey at Wegman's deli counter last week. They had the label visible, and I'm pretty sure there was nothing non-compliant in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peg541 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 I'll take a look. No Wegmans here bit I'll find out what's their name here. Thanks. Rats none here in CA. I'll try trader joes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delaine Ross Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Fresh roasted turkey might be one option at the Whole Foods deli counter. You'd need to grill them on whether it contains any nasties. Or turkey from a poultry farmer or butcher. Bottom line: deli turkey meat is very tricky to get Whole30 compliant. It is disappointing but sometimes they don't even know! The WF by my house has a local bacon whose ingredients list at WF didn't include sugar and I called the farm to make sure and they said that it was cured with sugar but they didn't feel the need for WF to list it on the plaque in front of it in the deli case. ?!?!

JoB Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 What about Boar's Head lunchmeats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookluvingbabe Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Applegate has a turkey bologna. And roast beef (but read the labels because some roast beef isn't compliant.) Wegman's has turkey and ham. Whole Foods has one turkey, I think from a company called Fresh Fields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 What about Boar's Head lunchmeats? Check the ingredient label or call their nutrition line at 800-352-6277. Their meats are gluten-free, but you'd need to ask if they contain things like sugar, sweetener, soy or carrageenan. According to this post, most of their meats contain sugar, which would make them a no go for a Whole30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haren.13 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Plainville oven roasted turkey is compliant - our local health food store carries it. We also do Applegate farms turkey bologna for the kids (and me ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laurabeth Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Our local Whole Foods just started carrying Plainville and it's really good and cheaper than Applegate. I actually just sent an email to the company to confirm ingredients (to make sure there's nothing hidden -- call me neurotic after reading posts here) but I could see the ingredients list on the package through the deli case and it looked good.
