lunch meat
Sandwich filling protein
Lunch meat is precooked, presliced meat sold for making sandwiches—ham, turkey, roast beef, salami, bologna, and the like.
The term reflects its primary use in packed lunches: I need to pick up some lunch meat for the kids' sandwiches.
Also called cold cuts or deli meat.
