As a child I took an instant dislike to what I named "plastic ham"

I was once given some in a restaurant which offered 'home cooked ham' and
when I complained said that it WAS home cooked.

Quite apart from the look, smell and flavour, it came in oblong slices with
nicely rounded corners. Why do they think they can fool you?
