I googled it and only specialty stores came up, like Honeybaked and Harry and David, and they are expensive. I didn't see it online at Safeway or other grocery stores in my area.

I hope that by not scoring the ham, I'll be able to use some of the interior meat for scalloped potatoes and ham. :)Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04760181575361554899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-81717524774810925492013-12-27T19:30:02.457-08:002013-12-27T19:30:02.457-08:00oh no, Addy!

Fortunately, it wasn't the main course of the Christmas dinner but by following the directions and cooking time, it ended up dried out, indistinguishable with flavor and it looked extremely unappetizing. It was a flop and ended up getting thrown out.
