As far as canned hams go, I can't say I buy them often, but have had a few over the years. I typically chop them up - maybe use in a soup or something like that. I've never eaten it like a nice baked holiday ham. When I make homemade split pea soup, I'll usually use smoked ham hocks for the flavor, then after they simmer for a couple hours, pull off whatever meat I can and return to the pot when I discard the bones. Then I'll supplement with some chopped ham, and canned actually isn't bad for that, assuming you don't have a leftover real ham.

I didn't stock up on them before the impending doom of this plague -- I was too busy searching for toilet paper .
I’m going to chop up the leftover ham and toss it into an omelet tomorrow morning with whatever else is handy.
