Speaker: Yes, people use the term Smithville ham when in fact they are talking about the Virginia Ham, generically. Like someone who will say pass the Kleenex when in fact they mean a tissue, any tissue. I don’t know why that is, but that is the way it is.
Preparing a Virginia Ham is very, very simple. Take it out of the package, put it in a baking dish wrap it with aluminum foil and then I bake it in the oven for-two-and half hours at 350 degrees, that's. Now what you have is the most delicious ham you will ever enjoy on a ham sandwich.
What about it's nutritional value and the dieting implications? Well, this is a -- like that. But gather it to pause your video because I will put the formula, some formulas on the screen and you can determine whether or not you should be eating this ham.
The determination as to whether or not you should be eating ham or potato for that matter is a personal choice, as you know some people will not eat ham because of religious reasons or personal reasons. This, as I said is a matter of choice. If you do like ham then by all means enjoy. So how many calories do you personally need a day? My personal point of view is this, I think we need way less than the food packaging in our cupboards will suggest. We need way less than 2000 calories a day, What do you think?
So are you fat? Do you need to lose weight? Take a look at the formula above and you determine that. I must tell you that the scientists have discovered that we should be eating less calories in a way if we wish to leave longer. The point is we eating about 130 grams of fat everyday and we need to cut that down, we really should.
I have a very simplistic view of life, if you are healthy and if you like who you are then who you are and what you are is good enough. You know what I think you just go and enjoy a nice ham sandwich.
