The UK's Food Standards Agency said processed meat is good for lunchboxes but should not be eaten "too often". Over recent years, the link between processed meats and bowel cancer in adults has been discovered, suggesting that thousands of cases could be prevented if everyone limited how much processed meat they eat to 70g a week.
The Cancer Research Fund wants processed meats such as ham and salami on sandwiches to be replaced with chicken, fish or cheese. Marni Craze, the charity's children's education manager, said: "It is better if children learn to view processed meat as an occasional treat if it is eaten at all."
