One of the best things about going back to western Pennsylvania is the insane amount of Steelers paraphernalia available for purchase nearly everywhere you look. I picked up this little gem at the Giant Eagle (and no, I wasn't there to buy chipped ham)--any guesses as to what it is? Hint: It's not a thermos. Give up? Ok, here's the answer:
That's right. Officially-licensed antibacterial wipes. Seriously. Of course I had to have them.

Bacterial wipes? Okay. But what the heck is chipped ham??
Hehe, it's very thinly sliced ham--I used to eat chipped ham and ketchup sandwiches growing up.

Interesting...must be a regional thing. Like pop and soda (and tonic in the Boston area, and not the kind you have with gin and a lime).
It most definitely is a regional thing; most people look at me like I have three heads whenever I mention it around here. The fact that I say pop doesn't help matters, either. :)
I'm a huge Steelers fan, too! My husband is an Eagles fan, so we're already arguing over which team our baby son will like when he grow up!
Hi Jen--I know exactly what you mean! My mother-in-law is from Eastern PA and is always trying to get Sammy into Eagles stuff. :)
