Jennie O Deli Premium Seasoned Sun Dried Tomato Turkey Breast Review

My husband and I were at the grocery store today purchasing some meat at the deli counter when something new caught my eye.  It was Jennie O Deli Premium Seasoned Sun Dried Tomato Turkey Breast. That seemed like an odd combination so I had to try it.  The man working behind the counter offered us a piece to sample and assured us that there was no going back once we tried it.  He said that he thought it was the best turkey he ever tasted and that it was a popular item.  He was right.  We loved it and purchased a pound of it for $5.98.

My Experience

The texture of deli turkey is very important to me. I absolutely cannot eat it if it has a slimy feel like some brands of turkey have. This Jennie O turkey has a drier texture which I really like. The taste of this turkey is slightly sweet and slightly tangy at the same. The sundried tomato flavor comes from the seasoned coating and tastes sooo good. My nine year old son tried a slice and I didn't think sun dried tomato would be something he would like but he loved it so much he asked to have a sandwich. My six year old eats it by the slice as a snack. Even though there is a little bit of a bite to this turkey, it doesn't phase my kids at all.

My Final Viewpoint

Jennie O Deli Premium Seasoned Sun Dried Tomato Turkey Breast is great tasting, low in calories and fat and is affordable.  I definitely recommend it and am giving it a 4 star rating. I would have went with 5 but took 1 star off due to the high sodium.
