The Perfect Toy

There is no question that pork was the ultimate gourmet "it" fare of 2008. And, what better way to celebrate the year gone by and usher in 2009, then with a canned ham-shaped plush toy? Called Haminal, this pink cutie-pie comes with its own resealable can and a jaunty pineapple ring for playing dress-up.

I'm hoping 2009 brings us the plush toy addition of Baconimal as a smoky sidekick.
