Celebrated: March 3

Let’s Meat Up!

On March 3, it’s time to celebrate all things cold cuts! Whether you call them lunch meats, deli meats, or sandwich meats, there’s no denying that cold cuts have a special place in our hearts (and sandwiches). From turkey and ham to salami and roast beef, these thinly sliced meats make meals easy, quick, and delicious.

Cold cuts, or processed meats, have been around for centuries, but they've truly become a modern-day food staple thanks to their versatility and ease of preparation. Whether you love a classic deli sandwich, a charcuterie board, or a tasty wrap, cold cuts bring the flavor and the fun.

From Deli to Dinner Table

Cold cuts have a long history—dating back to Roman times. They were initially developed as a way to preserve meat, and over the centuries, various cultures found their own ways to create and enjoy them. The 20th century saw cold cuts become a key player in lunchtime culture, especially in America, where they became synonymous with quick meals and convenience.
