Whatever happened to the cold-cuts labeled as "Danish ham?"

[Syrinx]

That was always my favorite kind of sandwich filler for lunch, because it was almost totally devoid of fat and gristle. I don't see it around anywhere nowadays. What happened to it?

Anyone know?

1. Dunno.

That was sold in cans, right?

3. nope, not the one I'm thinking of

It was sliced ham, in plastic packages, that was stored with the other pre-sliced meats. It made a much nicer sandwich than any of the sandwich ham I can find these days.

2. I haven't looked for it in a long time

and usually don't haunt the deli section but you might want to have a conversation with the manager of your local grocery about the possibility of them ordering some. It does work sometimes, a couple of well directed emails and I was able to get the local grocery chain to begin stocking the organic milk I prefer over Horizon. :hi:

4. you're right

Thanks for the suggestion. :)

5. Still available here. It is in the fresh sliced deli section.

I buy it frequently. Around here, it is the same type of deli ham as the Polish ham. I love it and when ordering, I ask for it to be cut thin. Much better for sandwiches that way.

6. thanks

I'll check out the deli. I used to always pick it up in the pre-sliced area, but haven't seen it in years. :shrug:
