What 2 Ounces Of Turkey Lunch Meat Looks Like Food
Feb 22, 2008 As the others said, not all deli meats are sliced the same. 4 oz of meat is generally equal to the height and shape of a deck of cards. So if you can imagine shaping that turkey breast according to that deck of cards - you will see how much 2 oz is. You can get an inexpensive scale (plastic) that does a good job at showing you the ounces. Mar 30, 2011 I bought some Boars Head turkey breast from the deli today. I have a food scale, but if I didn't this is how I would have figured it out: The label they slapped on the deli bag said I have.26 pounds of turkey breast. One pound is 16 ounces, so.26 X 16 gives me 4.16 ounces of turkey breast. There are 28.36 grams in an ounce (rounded), so. Turkey lunch meat is lower in calories than most other lunch meats. A 100 g, or about 3.5 oz., serving of sliced turkey contains 99 calories. The same size serving of pastrami contains 147 calories, and the same amount of ham contains 163 calories. Other lunch meats, such as salami, are even higher in calories, with 388 calories per serving.

- erickirbMemberPosts: 12,272MemberMemberPosts: 12,272Memberi just made a cold cut sandwich, got the meat from the deli so it doesnt have nutrition info on it, so i look it up in the database and i found it or something close to eat but a serv. size is 2 ounces. what does that equal in slice terms?
i had 2 slices of ham and 2 slices of turkey.
It depends. How big were the slices, how thick were the slices.
If you know how much you paid for it, how much did it cost per gram or ounce, use this to calculate the amount of ounces you bought, the receipt may even show the weight of how much you bought. - Just a note. I found that grams is much easier to use when calculating foods. So if your scale has a gram setting, give it a try.

How many slices are in the package?
It really depends upon how thick the slices are. It should have the weight of the total package on it. Because they normally sell it by the pound. The calculation would be:
pounds x 16= ounces in package, ounces in package/slices in package = how many slices per ounce.
Hope this helps - SueInAzMemberPosts: 6,603MemberMemberPosts: 6,603MemberJust a note. I found that grams is much easier to use when calculating foods. So if your scale has a gram setting, give it a try.
I agree! It's 28 grams to the ounce and when you're trying to measure little things like nuts, grams are much, much easier to get the exact amount. I still use pounds when I'm portioning out meat for the freezer, though. - FlyntiggrMemberPosts: 907MemberMemberPosts: 907MemberI've found that most of the Boar's Head stuff I buy is in the database. If not, they have a little booklet at the deli counter you can take with you.
And yes, get the scale. Only way to be accurate! - SMJohnson27MemberPosts: 146MemberMemberPosts: 146MemberI found a cheap-o scale at Walmart for $5. It is not digital but still works. The thin sliced lunchmeat I buy is 4-5 slices for 2 oz.
- Just a wild guess but I would think you had at least 2oz of meat. I have a scale at home and usually weigh all my food.
Me too, we weigh everything we eat either by weight or by volume pretty much. - spiderkacieMemberPosts: 3MemberMemberPosts: 3MemberI asked a deli person that question today she said one thin slice was about 2oz but I have no clue if that's right.

ETA - some of the 'deli' meat I get is in 1# slices. - gracetillmanMemberPosts: 194MemberMemberPosts: 194MemberThe Boars Head I buy is about an ounce a slice because of the way the deli slices the meat. But if you got a half pound of each and there were 8 slices of each you know its an ounce a slice.
- elsdonwardMemberPosts: 81MemberMemberPosts: 81MemberRight I think that a quarter of sliced meat (4 ounces is one quarter of a pound) is approximately 4 slices - so probably you have consumed 4 ounces - one slice approx one ounce
- froeschliMemberPosts: 1,300MemberMemberPosts: 1,300Membertime to buy a food scale. everything else is guessing.
- GingerLolitaMemberPosts: 751MemberMemberPosts: 751MemberFor deli meat, I look at the total weight on the package and count the amount of slices. Divide the total weight by the number of slices and find the avg. weight per slice!
- jfauciMemberPosts: 539MemberMemberPosts: 539MemberI eat boars head chicken breast every day for lunch and 4 slices is exactly 2 oz.
- herblackwings39MemberPosts: 3,926MemberMemberPosts: 3,926MemberIt really depends on the slices. I've gotten 4-5 slices that weigh 2 oz and I've gotten 1 slice that weighed 2 oz.
- james6998MemberPosts: 743MemberMemberPosts: 743MemberIf your not weighing your food, your taking a big risk. Calories add up fast and if you are over by a few each meal they will not leave you with a deficit, GET A SCALE is the only answer to this post.
- CassieLeigh86Member, PremiumPosts: 68MemberMember, PremiumPosts: 68MemberI bought some Boars Head turkey breast from the deli today. I have a food scale, but if I didn't this is how I would have figured it out:
The label they slapped on the deli bag said I have .26 pounds of turkey breast.
One pound is 16 ounces, so .26 X 16 gives me 4.16 ounces of turkey breast.
There are 28.36 grams in an ounce (rounded), so...
If you need to convert that into grams, 4.16 X 28036 = 117.98 grams.
ETA: I ate all my turkey in one sitting, but if you needed to figure out how much each slice weighs, then you'd divide the weight by how many slices you have. So, in keeping with my example above, I had 5 slices of meat. So 4.16 / 5 = .832 ounces per slice.
Seems like a lot less work to invest in a food scale, no?
