Organic Turkey Breast

Organic turkey breast is meat from turkeys raised according to USDA organic standards, meaning they are not given antibiotics or fed genetically modified organisms (GMOs). It is a lean protein source that comes from the breast muscle of the turkey.

Manufacturers use organic turkey breast as a primary protein ingredient in deli meats like turkey breast slices, pepperoni, and salami. It is also found in prepared meals, sandwiches, and other savory food products where a lean meat component is desired.

Organic turkey breast is a source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers turkey breast to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for consumption. Regulatory bodies like the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated turkey and its components, generally finding them safe for consumption within normal dietary patterns. No significant health controversies are associated with the typical consumption of organic turkey breast.
