Yeah, the new Staggs are better tasting than the canned, of course they take up less space .... smaller amount per box than cans, I generally put it on rice to stretch it. Even the cans don't last forever because the tomato sauce is corrosive, probably the boxes last as long.
DAK ham tastes ok if fried even a little. Most of the canned pork products seem to need frying to taste decent, it's not surprising that they taste bad eaten cold, considering all the chemicals and the rumor that they're mostly made up of leftovers from real meat processing that are washed into a drain, mixed with disinfectant, and pressed into cans.
Hope my Walmart has some of those specials when I go Monday, they've been a bit high priced on that stuff lately.
