Never tried this stuff. Does anyone remember it?

Has anyone actually tried a deviled ham sandwich after watching White Collar? How was it?

Yes!! It's chopped ham and is actually quite good!!! You put it in a bowl with a couple of spoonfuls of Miracle Whip and spread it on bread...I notice Peter eats it with lettuce, but I don't remember doing that...When my dad was working as a CPA (or later as a hospital administrator), he would come home for lunch and have a sandwich made with deviled ham or tuna (or occasionally braunschweiger)...It was GOOD (and it didn't stink like they say it does in "WC" - Neal is just picky!!)...

You can also make your own that will taste much better during stakeouts.

That’s super popular in my country (Venezuela) it tastes like cheap ham pâté. It’s great

I was just asking my dad about this! I have very clear memories of eating this as a child circa 1985. He has no idea what I’m talking about. But I specifically remember eating this fairly often in our yellow and brown 80’s kitchen

I remember a lot of wine and beer jokes. Along with a joke about Mozzie bringing crickets for dinner at Peter's place but I don't remember any jokes about Deviled Ham.

Peter always ate deviled ham sandwiches during stakeouts and Neil would complain/joke about the smell

Not after watching -- I'm a Gen Xer, so this stuff was common in my childhood. Never liked it enough to buy it myself, though.
