Does anyone actually know what these are

Looks like chicken strips to me

Edit: after a quick search it appears to me that Lewis market offers hot meals, and in many grocery stores you can find chicken strips in their hot meal section. My assumption is that the barcode 'dinner' is just a generic code for any of their hot food items.

Usually you wouldn’t wrap a hot meal in plastic wrap though.

The grocery store by my house sells precooked/fried chicken like this but it's cool and stored in a little cooler thing.

They use harder plastic here, but often times they make items like this, then refrigerate some and package them next to the hot food section. So they don't get as dried out sitting under a heat lamp for hours. This also qualifies them for SNAP (food stamps) as hot food does not qualify. Then you just take it home and throw it in the oven when your ready to eat it.
