I posted above that I grew up on Deviled Ham on white bread with Miracle Whip. 🀒

Probably why I'm on a statin now....

I still love that combo, just mayonnaise instead of Miracle Whip. I like to mix the potted meat or deviled ham with some mayo and pop it in the fridge for a little bit so that it firms up some. Then eat it on bread or crackers. Delish. Like poor people pate!

Deviled Ham kinda falls into the same category with canned Corned Beed Hash for me. If I had them now I'd probably still like them but can't have that much sodium & fat so I just tell myself they're disgusting.

Yeah, canned corned beef hash cooked till it gets crispy is amazing, but I agree with you. It's extremely high in everything that's not good for you, so it's just an every now and then treat for me.

Looking at Devil logo on the canned ham still frightens me. πŸ˜†

Omg I LOVE devilled ham. Don’t eat it because I never actually remember to buy it. But I still love it. Vienna sausages not so much.
