Fair enough. Actually, I wasn't so much disagreeing with you (you
probably would know better than I, at least directly) as warning away
from projecting your own standards on others, if that was indeed what
you were doing.

So, to bring this into a more positive vein, what are the deli meats
you grew up with? Weren't many of them cured in some way? Even
bologna generally is, to some nominal extent. Or is it that you don't
think of ham in the non-Kosher diet as filling that "convenience
food" role? I was just thinking more in terms of the manufacturing
process.
