If a word ends in 'y' preceded by a consonant, change the 'y' into an 'i' then add 'es'. Example: Cry. Plural: Cries. If a word ends in an 's', 'sh', or 'ch' sound, you add 'es' to form the plural in order to be able to pronounce it. For example: Fox, foxes; branch, branches.
The correct plural form of "lunch" is "lunches." In English, most nouns form their plural by adding "-es" to the singular form, especially if the noun ends in a consonant followed by "ch," as in this case. Therefore, "lunches" is the grammatically correct plural form of "lunch."
