I buy it at trader joe's, so I know it isn't too bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lunchmeat#post-1869992 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 10:21:19 +0000 mediagirl 1869992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, consensus seems to be that lunchmeat is okay. M doesn't really like it but they serve it at daycare so I was curious if we should just ask them to offer her a cheese sandwich on Fridays (lunchmeat days). Guess we'll go with it's okay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lunchmeat#post-1869976 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 10:14:44 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 1869976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Liam really likes turkey lunch meat.

Usually we go with Applegate Farms brand.</p> <p>He's not a big sandwich guy either, so usually I'll throw a few slices down. Sometimes I can roll it in a tortilla with cheese or cream cheese. It's such am easy protein source! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lunchmeat#post-1869938 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 09:53:23 +0000 blackbird 1869938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She eats some Boar's Head turkey with cheese if i have it on hand.
