Cold meats?

Hi,
What term would be the best general name for
all kinds of things like: hams, sausages, salamis, pâtés, etc...

- cold meats?
- cured meats?
- smokes meats?
(I'm looking for the best equivalent of the Polsh word "wedliny".)

Thanks!

[nq:1]I always laughed at Hungarian colleagues (including my wife...) who called them "cold cuts". Where I come from, they're just "cold meat". Adrian

[nq:1]Over here, "cold cuts" is the usual term for, as MWCD11 puts it, "sliced assorted cold cooked meats." A cooked ... ham or a roast, but they don't qualify as "cold cuts." (MWCD11 dates the expression to 1859, by the way.)[/nq]
