Now, with Listeria! ™️ –for that sparkling fresh digestive tract!–
Listeria is in high demand these days
Blue Bell and Boar’s Head, here I come!
What’s so unholy about it tho
ham
ham hammer hammerst
Yeah the Bible has specific rules about eating pig
Ham haram
It’s also not kosher and Christians really aren’t supposed to eat it either they just don’t give a shit about what the Bible says
Christians regularly ignore the 10 commandments, the most basic of rules in their religion. Of course they’ll ignore the stuff that means they can’t eat tasty pork
Jesus died so I wouldn’t have to read all that.
“Don’t give a shit about the repressive stuff” was kind of Jesus’ vibe anyways
Actually it has a fair bit of fat.
I was gonna say has this person ever had Spam? It’s borderline volatile because it’s like 60% water and fat.
And likely a fair bit of bone and connective tissue, but it’s all been processed and homogenized.
Just like my chicken nuggies
Enough sodium to cure what ails you
If it’s enough to cure the ham, it’s enough to cure you.
is the liquify and emulsion part true?
Yes, but the no fat or connective tissue part is most certainly not.
I’m not sure how else it would hold together
i guess you must be right
Pressing. Pressing hard.
Yes it is.
When processed, the meat bits, (and yes they are leftover meat bits), are ground into a paste with water added, (nearly all ham you buy has “Water Added” listed on the tag - exception would be something like “country ham” or prosciutto ham), then pumped into a carboy, (the paste is then called babbit), seasonings are then mixed in and then molded by machine into a glorious block 'o ham! To be sold at your local Deli as part of a delicious sandwich for which you happily pay your “hardly earned” monies.
For some reason babbit is like the grossest sounding thing in the universe
well thank babbit for that
thanks, thats horrid, i will not eat ham or spam. another thing i cant eat…
How is that any different than a sausage, hamburger, or any other food using ground meat? If we are going to eat meat, it’s better to utilize as much of the animal as possible.
I don’t see how this is particularly any more gross than other ways of preparing meat?
I mean shit you kill something and eat it, however you go at it, meat’s meat.
Eh, such products minimize the waste of things that would otherwise be thrown away and lost. Us humans have been processing the scraps and leftovers of our food into other edible products for as long as we can remember - Waste not, Want not.
The problem is the disconnect modern urbanites have from their food and not knowing how it gets made. If you like deli ham eat it! (in moderation as all things should be), it’s not all that different in processing than a hot dog, sausage, or hamburger. Or even cheese…
great, now I cant have hot dogs, sausages, hamburgers or cheese!!!
You are going to need to go beyond vegan and need to learn how to live on air and love only.
I think love might actually be more toxic than hotdogs depending on the manufacturer of both
put it side by side with a piece of meat you will be convinced
This is pure gold.
If i wasn’t ass-taste in my literation, i would write praise for this soul poetry. But alas, only thing i can say is pure gold.
It’s ham
My apologies, indeed ham. Thanks.
Thams
Side question: the US you don’t have ham made from a single piece of meat?
In my country that is the norm for ham, an abomination like that has no market. The only similar to it is something like “low fat chicken ham” (not actually called ham on the box as it would be false advertising)
I’m not in the US. Can’t tell you.
But I do like the look of that meat right there. Fantastic.
Product of Denmark
Hello, danish ham! The danes really know what they’re doing.
Yes, we have that as well.
ALL SHALL BOW BEFORE THE HAM CUBE
Prism? Thats a cuboid.
Cuboids are prisms. Specially, they’re rectangular prisms
TIL:
The key feature of a prism is that it has a rectangular cross-section along its length. The cuboid also has a rectangular cross-section, which makes it a prism.
How many cc’s?
God, my sister bought a can because she was visiting and wanted to try it, and didn’t eat it before leaving so I thought I’d eat it to get rid of it… 😩
I can’t remember the last time I gagged while eating something, but this caused me to almost vomit mom’s spaghetti.
That’s dog food. Not meant for human consumption.
The food i give my dog smells way better than that.
The secret is to not smell it
Also not to taste it.
Mayo helps
Somehow, though, when it’s pan-fried in teriyaki sauce and put over rice, it becomes delicious. Musubi gang wya
That’s spam though, right? This is different. Somehow worse. I used to love to cook spam and rice in college. Throw in some frozen veggies and you’re half way to a decent meal.
Oh, is that not spam in the pic? Thought it was, my bad!
It’s a deli ham. It’s typically sliced extremely thin and put into sandwichs
Alrighty, yup that’s nasty. Didn’t know they came in cubes
And for some fucking reason, people then want the deli to chip(shred) this cuboid abomination.
I don’t think this low effort spam is available in the deli section where I am. Though I would order it shredded just to annoy people.
It’s not Spam, it’s “deli ham” (Armour brand makes the big one) or “Polish Ham”(Krakus brand). So much more bland than spam.
Source: former deli worker. Fuck that job and fuck anyone who orders chipped/shredded deli meat.
I’m calling it low effort spam for the same reason I would order it shredded at the deli if I had the chance
as a former deli worker i wish everyone who orders chipped anything a very fuck you
Holy cow that’s long
Really putting the delicat in Delicatessen.
You sure that isn’t just an eraser? 🤔
Meat eraser
That’s the name of my metal band…
Yeah, if you like something don’t learn about how it’s done, just think god gave it to you like that. If you think about it you ain’t gonna eat anything anymore. Everything we buy is either very disgusting or involve some kind of torture/slavery (human or not). So either don’t think or think a lot and only eat from your own garden. (fyi I live in a flat so I can’t have a garden)
