what's your take on eating pepperoni slices from a package?

Winkski15 · October 2010

Safe, not safe? Not sure if it falls in line with the general- no deli meats unless heated up as it's handled and packaged differently?

Just make sure there are no nitrates... and I would probably still heat to steaming.

I never heated any deli meat to steaming.....maybe that is why LO has that tail.....

Aside from pepperoni being incredibly high in sodium and kind of gross IMO, there is nothing wrong with eating it.

oh Lord. Eat the pepperoni. Its fine. I eat it all the time straight up. Then again, I dont eat my deli meat. Really the chances of getting listeria are ridiculously low.

you obviously have food issues. you need to starve yourself.

If it is in stick form you can eat it. The packaged pepperoni you need to heat up, cool, and then heat up again just to be safe. Don't eat it until the edges start to curl up.
