Its Kosher Ham!

That reminds me of a true story.

When I started college at U of Chicago in the early '80s, many places competed for the student food dollar. My dorm, the Shoreland, was about three miles from the dining hall, so Shorelanders were especially sought after.

It was well-known that Leon's Bar-b-q had some of the best ribs to be had. As a common first name like Leon's cannot be trademarked, a cheap knock-off called "Leon's Plus" was sending flyers throughout the dorms. Leon's Plus claimed to have "Assembled the Finest Chefs in the World of every cuisine" to provide a full menu, and not just ribs. So, besides ribs and chicken, they offered Italian, gyros, burgers, and yes a full line of kosher delicacies prepared by the finest kosher chefs including the "Kosher Ham Sandwich"...all for $1.85!

We have a local family style restaurant that prints up a calendar for each month and each day has its special listed. Thing is they always list pork items on the Jewish holidays!
