The average baguette is 40cm long. The average slice of ham is 12cm square. This causes a dilemma. Do you cut several slices to the shape of the baguette, discarding the excess, or do you just fold the ham over, risking uneven ham thickness?
Ham On A Roll brings an end to this misery.
Simply feed your
5cm wide roll of ham onto your ham dispenser, and place it in the fridge. Pull on the roll as you would a tissue dispenser, and you are presented with a baguette lengthed slice of ham.
To avoid disappointment, a "running out" slip is inserted 40cm from the end of the roll.
Available at all reputable supermarkets now.
NB For those who prefer square sandwiches, the more traditional 12cm x 12cm is also available on rolls of 1.20m, 2.40 & 4.80m.

Your metric ways frighten and confuse me... |
|
| |
They can be supplied in non-metric lengths for the Imperial classes. |
|
| |
I don't eat ham if it comes in 12X12 cm squares. Off the bone or nothing, thanks! |
|
| |
Find me a pig with a columnar ass and I'll go for it. Processed meat scares me. |

You didn't by any chance attend Gatton Agricultural College in the late 70's did you [Custardguts]? |
|
| |
Ham in the design of paper towels? It's perforated? And I eat it? |
|
| |
why must we perforate all our food. |
|
| |
[jtp], I know you would slurp it right off the roll. |
|
| |
Sorry to be the thus far lone boner. I bone processed "meats" on principle. This should be called Semi Processed hAM on a roll, or something. |
|
| |
Ah Gatton. I remember the days [sigh]. There I was, boning processed meats all day long, till security caught me. |
|
| |
I wondered why they called it "head cheese". |
|
| |
[BrauBeaton] - Excellent idea. I'll get the boys in R&D to look into it. |
|
| |
This is not to be confused with toilet paper! If the two were switched, your sandwich would be very dry, and lets not mention the other part. |

I can see the advertising now, using the Andrex puppy. |
|
| |
"Can I have a ham roll please"
"There you are sir"
"No, a roll o' ham"
"ok, here you go"
"Thats better, now I'd like a bread roll please" |
|
| |
Just put the desired amount of ham in a blender, puree, add some honey for flavor, and spread on your sandwich. SPRAM = spreadable ham. |
|
| |
//never understood why poor old ham gets so vigorously processed//
It's called 'added value'; for the producer, not the consumer. |
|
| |
Processing worries me as well, but I'll bun this only because it inspired this: |
|
| |
//Find me a pig with a columnar ass and I'll go for it// |
|
| |
Got to be one of the better quotes on HB. |
|
| |
+ for the quote. I wish the HB would allow buns/bones for individual annos. |
|
| |
When it comes down to sandwiches I prefer ({)}. |
|
| |
As a child, I always wondered why ham came in the limitative square version. ++ |
|
| |
You should be able to do something like this without really processing the meat. Simply start with the complete ham, and have a machine that cuts of a strip of a given width, all the way down to the bone. You would have a limited overall length, but assuming a fairly fine slice it wouldn't be that short. (You would also need a take up roller to re-roll the meat once its cut) |
|

//risking uneven ham thickness// that would be dicey |
