You all know of my fondness for sandwiches and cold cuts.

Unfortunately, so much deli meat is...nasty. It doesn't taste like meat. It tastes like some kind of mashed-up processed substance that is only meat in the loosest definition of the term. As Velveeta is to cheese, most deli meat is to meat. My last cold-cuts purchase went only half-

Will have to try that sometime, as soon as I find a Whole Foods around here.

Not to put too fine a point on it, Kroger's deli sucks. Big ones. I'm spoiled by our local grocery chain's deli, which has really good potato salad and other foods of many varieties. I have to readjust my thinking when I visit my 'rents in a small town that only has Krogers (ick.) They say "We'll just pick up some fried chicken" or whatever and I say "Great!" automatically and then want to kick myself.

No, it's worth it. I like Boar's Head because it has fewer preservatives, but that's what usually kills me about processed meats. I can't eat Schlotsky's sandwiches because they give me a headache. It's strange.

I'm with you. If I'm going to have a sandwich, by gods, I want a good sandwich, with good bread and good meat. If that means spending a bit more cash at the grocery store, well, then, so be it.
