    Default Honey Baked Ham Company began in Detroit

    He invented the first spiral-slicing machine. Great ham but expensive.

    ^ Yowsers - sounds great! Not a big pork eater but I'd go for this -- probably better than what the new chain is offering,

    I remember going there before Christmas in ‘71 to pick up the hams for the unofficial company Christmas party we held at the Robin Hood bar on Livernois. I took a Honda 600 sedan demonstrator, those things were small.

    People lined up around the block. I parked that Honda on the sidewalk [[still was room to walk around it!) to load up the hams.

    Lol, yes, I can visualize it. I think you could have put 2 of them on the sidewalk and still have room…

    They definitely were small. It was a bit on the “tight” side for me at 5’10” but hey, I was young and could contort myself to get in and out. Creature comforts, were definitely lacking though it did have a heater, defroster AND a AM-FM radio, I could listen to “ABX”!

    A couple years later one of my friends bought one for his wife, I thing it was probably retaliatory for her totaling their Mach 1.
