Skip: Holiday Ham

Pick: Turkey

Maybe you had turkey for Thanksgiving and were thinking about changing it up with a holiday ham. Not so fast. While turkey is largely unprocessed, ham gets brined, jacking up the sodium content of your holiday spread. Roasted turkey provides a lean protein that you can load your plate with without fear of overdoing the salt, as long as you lay off the gravy.
