What it is

Honey cured ham is a type of processed pork product made from the hind leg of a pig. It is preserved through a curing process that typically involves salt, nitrites or nitrates, and honey, which imparts a sweet flavor.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add honey cured ham to products primarily for its savory flavor, protein content, and texture. It is a common ingredient in prepared meals, such as wraps, burritos, sandwiches, and snack trays.

Health notes

Honey cured ham is a food product, not an additive, and is regulated as a meat product by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Cured meats, including ham, are often high in sodium; the FDA Daily Value for sodium is 2,300 mg. They can also be high in saturated fat, and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2025-2030) recommend keeping saturated fat intake under 10% of daily calories. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified processed meats, which include cured ham, as Group 1, 'carcinogenic to humans,' based on sufficient evidence that their consumption causes colorectal cancer.
