Cold cut meats, also known as deli meats, are pre-cooked or cured slices of meat typically made from pork, beef, chicken, or turkey. Common varieties include ham, salami, pastrami, and turkey breast, often seasoned or smoked for flavor. Originating from various cuisines, these meats are staples in sandwiches, wraps, and charcuterie boards worldwide. While they provide protein and essential nutrients like iron and zinc, they can also be high in sodium, saturated fats, and preservatives like nitrates. Some cold cuts contain added sugars or fillers, making them less nutrient-dense than whole cuts of meat. Opting for low-sodium or nitrate-free versions and consuming them in moderation can help mitigate these concerns. Balanced with fruits, vegetables, or whole grains, cold cuts can be a convenient source of protein in meals, but should be carefully chosen to align with dietary and health goals.
