Sliced sandwich ham is a versatile deli meat made from cured pork, often seasoned with salt, sugar, and spices for flavor. Originating from European curing traditions, it has become a staple in sandwiches and salads worldwide. This processed meat is typically lean, offering a good source of protein while being relatively low in fat compared to other cured meats. However, it may contain added preservatives like nitrates and higher sodium levels, which should be considered when consumed regularly. Sliced sandwich ham works well in a balanced diet when combined with whole-grain bread, fresh vegetables, and other nutrient-rich ingredients. For a healthier option, choose varieties labeled low-sodium or nitrate-free.
