Is reduced salt corned beef healthy?

[willhub]

As above, is it healthy? Or bad for you?

I'm thinking of something to eat and got a tin of corned beef and I'd likely make something where by I'd eat the whole tin in one meal.

Was thinking of grilling it, then shopping it up adding some sort of sauce like pasta sauce to it and having rice and vegetables with it.

Thanks
Will.

Everything is bad for you, just depends on the quantity.

Ok in moderation it seems.

It’s got reduced salt so it has some benefit. It might be bad for you if you stuff yourself with it but that can be said of almost anything you eat that way.

Just remember that you need salt.

LOL

The pants or the custard?




I would say in moderation OP it is 'ok'. Ideally meat wants to be organic but you can't have everything.

Not really, its ok every now and again.

 

[I get around]

Ok in moderation but it still contains a lot of fat and additives much like pretty much anything tinned.

not quite in keeping with the thread, however I found a can of corned beef hash in the supermarket the other day and thought I'd give it a punt.

Whatever you do, don't make the mistake I did. Twas awful!

It starts with the word "reduced", nothing starting with the word reduced is worth eating.

He’d have eaten the can without asking here.

Yeah without sharing, the *******

Corned beef is cured in salt, not sure how it can still be called corned beef if they don't do that.

Corned beef hash will be better than on rice. Check here: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17651736

Best to not eat a whole tin of it in one go in my opinon, fat git

You need some time away from the computer chap

 

[Randomface74]

You realise they hang up the carcass and spray it with water to get the last bits off?

Everything that doesn't look like beef, is that crap.

Corned beef just looks like chopped up beef though.

That's it:

In the end I just had potato bake, some vegetables and half the tin of corned beef.

He’d have eaten the can without asking here.

Course I would, nowt wrong with asking the question tho.
