Lunch meat?
You are telling me that you have a type of meat only used for lunch? I feel the England/American divide here wink

It's not only eaten at lunch but it's made to be put in a sandwich, which is more commonly eaten at lunch than at any other meal. If lunch meat bothers you you can call it sandwich meat if you'd like and you'll be understood. Of course then you risk the wrath of someone who just wants to cut it into slices and put it in an omelet.

deaedmeaet.

In the grocery where I shop, there is in the meat section,
a sign saying "lunchmeats" and "sandwich meats".

Well now, not only are there lunch meats but sandwich meats as well...odd! we just have sandwiches over here...they contain ham or chicken or bacon or cheese, all individually spoken, not grouped into "lunch/sandwich meats"...to me that sound like a type of processed filler of "meat" that comes in squares the same size as bagged bread! (no offense intended!)
