Spiral ham is a loaf of ham that has been sliced with a helical cut. This type of cut is performed with a special machine by the food processing company. Planar slicing causes the loaf to fall apart, while the helical slicing allows the loaf to remain firm and is more aesthetically pleasing. It also allows the ham to be stored easily versus the normal sliced ham.
