A bit of mustard & mashed garlic and puree, makes a tolerable 'deviled ham'.

Not that i would buy them, but a friend left a couple of cans after a
pot luck and i couldn't think of anything better to do with them.

My cats wouldn't eat them, but they wont eat any meats i offer them.

I remember rinsing them in hot water to remove the congealed fat they
are packed in.
