Spiral sliced meat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Spiral sliced meat is a loaf of lunchmeat, usually ham, that has been sliced with a helical cut in preparation for serving. This is generally done by the food processing company with a special machine. Slicing the meat in this manner makes it easy to serve but prevents the loaf from falling apart which planar slicing would result in. The intact loaf is more aesthetically pleasing for presentation and more easily stored than separated slices would be.
