    This is not country ham.

    This is country ham:

    Country ham is salted ham. Always, 100%, like pre-refrigeration levels of salt, to the point that it’s shelf-stable.

    Also the source is is in the guide, which I didn’t see until now. Looks like AI generated blogspam to me. Virginia is known for country ham, but no way has anyone put it on bread that wasn’t a buttermilk biscuit alongside mayo and called it a sandwich.

      I’m not at all disagreeing that Cam’s Ham isn’t serving Country Ham. I was just hoping to provide a little context to the graphic using the cited sources and some additional information.

      It’s a graphic that someone’s probably put a fair bit of effort into, not spam. This is spam:

        The reference the graphic cites is blogspam, the infographic is a weird ad for TitleMax that someone did presumably put time into. Unfortunately, it is good effort put towards bad information.

        The reference in question, from the bottom of the image: https://www.ezcater.com/lunchrush/office/america-50-iconic-sandwiches/

        One of the sandwiches is a bratwurst on a hot dog bun. It has the feel of an AI hallucination.

          Ok, going through that source, I can see how some of that must be an AI hallucination. “Fluffernutter” can’t actually be a thing, can it?

            Fluffernutrer is real and delicious, and if you haven’t had the chance to try it, please do.
