What it is

Black Forest Ham is a type of cured, smoked, and seasoned pork. It typically comes from the hind leg of a pig and is often boneless. Its distinct flavor comes from a specific curing process and smoking over wood.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add Black Forest Ham to products primarily as a protein source and for its savory flavor. It is commonly found in prepared sandwiches, wraps, and lunch meat combinations.

Health notes

Black Forest Ham is a processed meat product. The FDA regulates meat products to ensure safety and proper labeling. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), part of the World Health Organization (WHO), classifies processed meat as "carcinogenic to humans" (Group 1), based on sufficient evidence that it causes colorectal cancer. Processed meats, including ham, are also typically high in sodium; the FDA Daily Value for sodium is 2,300 mg. JECFA and EFSA do not typically evaluate whole food ingredients like ham.
