    Ham has natural sulfur in the meat and sulfites are often added to packaged deli meat as a preservative. That’d be my guess why.

      Probably right. They figure yeah, I’m gonna go ahead and fart in this because it smells like sulfur anyway. The meat workers probably don’t get a lot of fart breaks, so they just fart in the sulfur packed meats.

        It’s true that capitalism has taken so much from us, but at least it’s given us smart phones and fart ham.

          I am happy that in the interest of their health, meat workers have replaced their smoke breaks with fart breaks. While not exactly the compromise the union wanted, it does give the worker a small mental break and the deli company does have to source less sulfur
