Ham Unavailable at Asda
« on: Friday 10 July 20 13:16 BST (UK) »
Hi all,

It appears that whatever type of ham I look at Asda for our Click and Collect is shown as unavailable.

Has anybody else noticed that at all today?

This article from several months ago was projecting that sliced cooked meats would feature in an additional 35 million meals every week, with sliced ham accounting for 90% of the increase:

Just checked on my ASDA branch in Ipswich - nearly all shown as 'out of stock' but there were a few items still available.
