Subway sandwich meat approximates the taste of real meat in much the same way watermelon Jolly Ranchers approximate a watermelon. That is to say, the artificial copies taste nothing like the real thing, but they do stir up strong memories of “ham” and “watermelon”.
Couldn't have said it better myself. Skip the Subway and head to Honeybaked Ham for a boxed lunch.
for some random weird reason, all this candy/meat writing lately from the 2 of you on your websites is making me think of jelly belly flavors. they now make- black pepper, booger, dirt, earwax, grass, sardine, spinach and last but not least... vomit. maybe they could add a watermelonham to the mix.
I've had proscuitto-wrapped pears, and they are delicious. I see no reason why we couldn't have ham-wrapped watermelon. Two great tastes that taste great together.
check out the color of the vomit bean- http://jellybelly.com/Cultures/en-US/Fun/Flavor+Guides/Bertie+Botts+Flavor+Guide.htm
it also says they just added spaghetti, soap, and earthworm. with all those nifty flavors i'm surprised they haven't included... bat guano, spoiled milk, dirty diapers, gasoline, bugs, and a he who smelt it dealt it. actually, they should just consult with that fear factor show for ideas.
