Cold cuts are thin slices of cooked, ready-to-eat sliced meat that are served cold. Cold-cut meats are also known as deli meats, lunch meats, sandwich meats, or sliced meats. The majority of cold cuts are classified as processed meats.
But they're not the healthiest option. Canned and prepackaged cold cuts are loaded with saturated fat, sodium and nitrates — all while being short on protein. The sliced-to-order meat you get at the deli counter can be a healthier option, but still contains more sodium than anything you'd make yourself.
Eating cold cuts is convenient—no cutting or cooking is required. Simply buy the meat, slap it on a sandwich or in a wrap and head out the door. They are also high in protein and beneficial vitamins and minerals such as iron, zinc and vitamin B12.
