Dutch colony hams have been my go to for years. Very tasty and can be used in a lot of dishes. Breakfast make ham fries with canned ham. Cook in air fryer or oven till browned and sizzly.
The people on this channel are expecting can him to taste like literal perfection you don't get a can him because you want the rich delicious flavor of ham you do it because you're f****** hungry and it's Keep
Karkus Polish Ham 98% fat free best canned ham you would ever have!! Can't believe that wasn't on mashed list. Plus a few other that are decent. Seems like 80% of the ones they mentioned were crap.
During World War II, SPAM was shipped to the Red Army in the USSR to feed their troops so they would not starve. When Nikita Khrushchev visited the US, he was given a tour of the SPAM processing plant in Austin, Minnesota. He thanked Hormel Foods for helping to save his nation.
Great video. I loved the comparisons of most of the canned yams to Spam, which makes my stomach turn. I'll stay with that Deviled Ham for lunch & smoked shoulder for dinner. Those canned ones were nothing but salt water to me...
I've thrown out every canned ham I've ever tried. I admit I haven't tried the smaller canned examples you've shown and may try one if I ever see it in a store, but every one of those larger ones I've ever had I've pitched in the trash after opening. Bad smell, bad taste, etc. I generally stick with what takes a long time to prepare or out of the deli instead. I've had good canned roast beef and good canned chicken and spam can be ok in a pinch but if I'm that desperate for protein, I'll just go with beans instead.
Hormel's canned smoked ham is amazing i eat it 3-4 times a week with some kind of potato or rice i just wish they cam in bigger containers because some times i want a bit more but dont want to open 2 cans
I have tried many canned hams (including many on this list) and imo Aldi's canned ham (Brookdale) is the best I have ever had. Prepare it in the oven w brown sugar on top and it's unbelievable. It's non-inclusion on this list makes the whole thing suspect.
I always liked the Dak Ham that I could buy in Walmart. I haven't seen it since 2020 so switched to Bristol Ham which they started to carry.I honestly haven't had many complaints about that brand,other than some hams are fattier than others. I want to try the top 3 on here though.
My parents bought Dubuque brand canned hams, usually five to eight pounds each, for large family gatherings. My mother scored the top, then topped them with dark brown sugar, pineapple rings (canned slices) and cherries, then poured the pineapple syrup (not available in juice at the time) over the entire thing. Baked at 325°F for about 15 to 20 minutes per pound, basting periodically. Cover with foil if necessary. It was good and we enjoyed leftovers, sometimes freezing slices--when larger freezers became the norm! No on liked HORMEL hams. They were significantly inferior to Dubuque (haven't seen one in 30 years or so--I'm thinking they ceased production when spiral sliced hams became popular). The Hormel hams texture was awful and they had a nasty after taste. Personally, I don't think canned hams are intended to be eaten directly out of the can. Is it safe? Yes. Does it taste good or look appealing? NO! And, yes, canned ham is very salty, regardless of brand. For us, it was an occasional, inexpensive treat to be shared with special people. No one ate humongous quantities in a short period of time. It always was accompanied by fresh, roasted vegetables. After all, if you're using the oven for one thing, you might as well save some money and cook other things simultaneously. 👍
Where would Tailor Pork Roll be compared in a review video like this? When will reviews of other types of salad dressings be done? Thanks for that review of ranch dressings , hidden valley buttermilk ranch dressing deserved best on list and that certainly improved my daily salads
As far as I can tell, actual "canned ham" is no longer produced. Everything on this list is a manufactured pork product and most are packed in little cans that are reminiscent of the shape that real canned hams used to come in. The cans were that shape because it most closely matched the shape of that cut of meat that was trimmed to fit and packed in gelatinized juices. Yes, they were actual cuts of bone-in ham, and they were very good. Of course. being an actual ham the cans weights were measured in pounds and the prices were expensive, but it was a real piece of meat like you would get at the butcher. The comparisons to SPAM in this video are quite apt, IMO, because all of the "products" reviewed here are manufactured products that are produced in similar ways and are direct competitors, and not "ham".
Goya is the best. It makes great ham salad w Mayo and onions, or just cooked with potatoes and cheese sauce! Or, cook it with yams w corn bread. Spaniards are known for good ham, Spam's yummy.
Sorry to ruin Goya for you, but they are Trump supporters. It might suck to not be able to buy food you like anymore, but it's important to do the right thing. Take care.
Goyas truly awful i never had canned ham before and got some from the food bank. They even put phosphates in it why? They put so much salt in it they don't need a perservative
You seem to be highly contemptuous of Spam for some reason. Spam is actually quite popular and many, including me, find the flavor and texture more than satisfactory. It's a delicacy in Hawaii and has been featured on at least one Food Network cooking show. This may or may not bode well for the quality of the hams that you like. We'll see.
Canned Ham....lol....We only eat them during Emergencies. Like when a hurricane rips through leaving us landlock without power. Then ALL canned Ham's are edible.
When I find a ham it has a best by date 4-5 years later. My point is, since the pandemic I haven’t seen the DAK ham, I barely even seen the Aldi Brookside ham either… I do prefer canned ham over SPAM
I've tried a number of these and in my opinion, of those I've eaten DAK is the best. By the way SPAM is a very good meat and I keep cans in my pantry all the time. This woman is snob!
You're absolutely right! They miss the best ham! Didn't mention a few of the other ones that are good seems like they focused in on the crap ones. I'd rather know five of the best instead of five of the worst!
Of course, I am watching this canned ham ranking, and the worst in rank, is in our pantry. Great. Just thankful it's super small, easier to keep out of view and from the frying pan.
Is this Ally’s voice from KROQ’s morning show???!!! Lol very informative commercial but definitely her unique voice got me hooked into watching the full video lol
HORMEL BLACK LABEL hams are the best, better than ANY fresh smoked ham ,, i used to buy them in 10# and 5# cans then they were only found in 3# cans ,,,and within the last year nothing,,, sad
Ok. You lost me when you hinted that spam was bad...fract what you are saying, you mised the mark when you kept comparing to spam that is among the best of canned ham
What do you have against spam? You mentioned their name non stop that I’d have alcohol poisoning if I played a drinking game with this video. Also the Walmart luncheon meat is meant as a spam knockoff; which is why you find it next to them. Yet you loved it 🤦♀️
You all have a marked prejudice against Spam, eh? I happen to like Spam. But DAK was just about the only so-called canned ham you included in this review. I do like Hormel. But you ignored most of the good canned hams. There are great canned hams but you missed them all. Omaha Steaks has a great one that is actual ham, not some mystery substance like 90% of this list. Wow! You all seem to despise Spam yet review so-called "ham" and call it good? Really? Why did you omit the Hormel 5lb canned ham that is an actual boneless ham? Krakus is a great ham. If my brain was working I could list more. Never even heard of almost all your list. This review seems terribly snobbish.
Most canned ham is pressed meat, an upscale spam -- i.e., chunks. It's "composed". Also, why don't you or prepper vlogs ever mention PFAS or PFOA? You know ...well ... you know.
Whoever does these artificially sounding stupid voice overs … needs to be fired. And whoever writes the dialogue, these also need to be fired because it is vague notions, full of stock images and no creativity
Just like some "chicken" mass production food - this cheap "ham" is just toothpaste like extruded garbage made from the worst leftovers & formed into a meat like product
Which is your favorite brand?
Neither.
Dak
Spam
Dutch colony
Why would anyone want to eat canned ham? Why would anyone be forced to use it as an option? Unless you live way out in the boonies? Why?
Dutch colony hams have been my go to for years.
Very tasty and can be used in a lot of dishes.
Breakfast make ham fries with canned ham.
Cook in air fryer or oven till browned and sizzly.
We used to get good Danish canned ham. Cheap everywhere, I haven't seen it for years. It made delicious deviled ham salad sandwiches.
Why do you keep comparing the bad ones to Spam? Spam is delicious!
They're snobs
For REAL and Goya canned ham is GOOD.
I grew up eating Hormel canned ham and still make it sometimes. I’m 62 in a few days. The 2 or 3 pound size not the tuna can size.
When SHTF you're not really gonna care very much. That ham will taste like steak if you're hungry enough
Amen
The people on this channel are expecting can him to taste like literal perfection you don't get a can him because you want the rich delicious flavor of ham you do it because you're f****** hungry and it's Keep
@@sammywilliam8156 you got that right!
no it doesn't it tastes like a mouthful of crappy salt not what I want when I'm super humgry
@@laurac5451 🤣🤣🤣 You can starve then.
I’ve never really been a canned ham fan. This helped me understand why.
Karkus Polish Ham 98% fat free
best canned ham you would ever have!!
Can't believe that wasn't on mashed list.
Plus a few other that are decent. Seems like 80% of the ones they mentioned were crap.
Krakus Polish canned ham is the best, hands down. I can't believe it wasn't reviewed in this comparison!
Where can you purchase Krakus Polish Canned Ham in the US?
I like that brand as well. Good quality.
@@mindyhill2381 Try Googling it to see if a store in your area carries it or if it's available online.
@@mindyhill2381 I have seen it in Walmart in upstate ny
I haven't seen it in a can in many years.

It was not Spam. It was Tushonka. Stewed pork prepared from Russian recipe. It was a superior product in comparison to garbage Spam.
@@gregorygurvits4552 nobody cares

Dak is my favorite.
Ate a Dubuque canned ham today for the first time in my life. It was a 7/10.
If your hungry enough... You'll Eat it and Enjoy it! I buy them to throw in my 'Emergency Food' kit!

My favorite dannish food tulip❤❤ still buying tulip
Hormel Black Label canned ham is good.
Dak Ham was 1 of the types of canned food we would take camping and hunting for weekend and longer tracks
KLEIN AND ALLY SHOW!!!
Sweet dibbits!
Walgreens has the DAK canned ham. It's really good for a breakfast meat.
Some of us happen to like Spam.
Hormel is tasty as is Deviled Ham. However, avoid Walmart at all costs.
Goya is the best. It makes great ham salad w Mayo and onions, or just cooked with potatoes and cheese sauce! Or, cook it with yams w corn bread. Spaniards are known for good ham, Spam's yummy.
Sorry to ruin Goya for you, but they are Trump supporters. It might suck to not be able to buy food you like anymore, but it's important to do the right thing. Take care.
I will now buy this brand knowing they support Trump
Goyas truly awful i never had canned ham before and got some from the food bank. They even put phosphates in it why? They put so much salt in it they don't need a perservative
This channel is great for college students.
The only canned ham I ever liked was Swift Hostess ham and they were in a round can and great, they still sell Armour canned hams.

Great show thank you
There’s a polish ham that Walmart slices at deli dept Krakus ??? Spelling might be off 🤷♂️that’s the best canned ham
Soon folks will be starving and eating cricket protein. I’m going to eat my canned ham and say mmm while I’m thinking about all of you. 😃
krakus is the best canned ham i have ever tried
I can't believe Krakus isn't on this list!
The small round can of Hormel is really good mixed with mayo for a sandwich.
Where is Krakus on this list???
Canned Ham....lol....We only eat them during Emergencies. Like when a hurricane rips through leaving us landlock without power. Then ALL canned Ham's are edible.
I'd rather have white tuna or chicken
For anyone that wants self stable canned ham after 2020, the only ham that I could find was Bristol ham, good luck ever finding DAK ham… 😳🤦♀️
You are not self stable. FYI - the year is 2022. Who wants a can of meat that is shelf stable after 2020 but expired in 2021? 🤦♂🤦♂🤦♀🤦♀🤣🤣
When I find a ham it has a best by date 4-5 years later. My point is, since the pandemic I haven’t seen the DAK ham, I barely even seen the Aldi Brookside ham either… I do prefer canned ham over SPAM
i see dak ham at my local walgreens all the time.
Walgreens carries the 16oz can, but dollar stores are growing like crazy(good stock now)
This narrator is awesome. Someone get her a Honey Baked Ham sponsorship.
If the video is supposed to be about canned ham why are you including luncheon meat which is a completely different canned meat?
I've tried a number of these and in my opinion, of those I've eaten DAK is the best. By the way SPAM is a very good meat and I keep cans in my pantry all the time. This woman is snob!
Hormel would be my pick 🌹
plumrose is perfection.
Just curious. How much did Hormel pay you?
when it is glazed in honey DOES NOT make the ham taste better… not for me
You all picked the worst ,the best is Krakus hams by far
That 5 oz Hormel ham is awesome for pastas or casseroles.
Christmas with the Kranks Ham
What? No Krakus Polish Ham????
You're absolutely right! They miss the best ham! Didn't mention a few of the other ones that are good seems like they focused in on the crap ones. I'd rather know five of the best instead of five of the worst!
It's not available everywhere. I have never seen it where I live now.
Canned polish hams are the best.
Chestnut Hill Is The Best Caned Ham They Sell!!!!!
Hi friend
Which country. Are you livein?
Dak made the best canned ham but its gone now. They always discontinue the best stuff.
Of course, I am watching this canned ham ranking, and the worst in rank, is in our pantry. Great. Just thankful it's super small, easier to keep out of view and from the frying pan.
Get it out and try it. You will see that these people Lied to you.
i googled what to do about it an it said to soak for several hours to get extra salt out of them
I like Mario's ham from Denmark 😋
Since everything tastes like Spam or worse, I'll stick with the OG.
i always thought these were sold to people without refrigeration.if you have a fridge and power you could afford the real thing.
Hormel didn't even rank? what does that mean, it tastes like what you clean out of the fish tank?
I have never tried canned ham. I have had Spam but not canned ham.
Wtf?! Why now in the middle of July?!?!?!
For me, I have no favorite really. They are all salty n no ham flavor. But I will grab a can now n then for a quick meal
Is this Ally’s voice from KROQ’s morning show???!!! Lol very informative commercial but definitely her unique voice got me hooked into watching the full video lol
Im not a big fan of ham to begin with, but if i comes out of a can i will just skip dinner. 😝
Not much of a list. You forgot Krakus.
HORMEL BLACK LABEL hams are the best, better than ANY fresh smoked ham ,, i used to buy them in 10# and 5# cans then they were only found in 3# cans ,,,and within the last year nothing,,, sad
There is no First. Spam is on the low end and "canned ham" is barely above.
The end.
It might save your family in a bad situation
Bristol is chopped pressed real ham it's way better then spam
If you're eating canned ham it's a clear sign that you've given up
Bendiciones
rath blackhawk was the best
Ok. You lost me when you hinted that spam was bad...fract what you are saying, you mised the mark when you kept comparing to spam that is among the best of canned ham
WHY NO DISCLAIMERS?
Probably sponsored by one or more in the top 3. Lol
Wait...there's a best? Lol
What do you have against spam? You mentioned their name non stop that I’d have alcohol poisoning if I played a drinking game with this video. Also the Walmart luncheon meat is meant as a spam knockoff; which is why you find it next to them. Yet you loved it 🤦♀️
But SPAM is good though. They really come across as being snobs lol
Ok 😆😆😆
😚
Dear Mash…This just..100% Junk ..Supplied Stock Photos of Can Hams and show no one on ur staff eating and testing. 100% Failure
Dak is pronounced “dack”.
Why wasn't Krakus polish camed ham included in this video? Typical discrimination against Poles?
The Goya is the worst 🤮🤮
Avoid all that has sugar in it!!!

I feel like this video is way too judgemental. In an emergency situation I bet you'd be all over these. So CÁLMATE.
Exactly. That ham will taste like steak when you're starving.
Whoever does these artificially sounding stupid voice overs … needs to be fired. And whoever writes the dialogue, these also need to be fired because it is vague notions, full of stock images and no creativity

What about a can warthog that would be interesting ?🤔🤔🤔🤔
