Well I grew up in a small town that's not within an hour of much of anything. It was a big deal when we got an Arby's, in the mid aughts. There's a lot of that in the US, even on the east coast. People who live in cities and fly all the time seem to forget about that.
Figure out where it takes a couple hours of driving to get to an international airport and you'll have an idea.
Anyway, I just assume anything people on this site assume everyone has seen is from California, especially if I've never heard of it.
Maybe I've just never been in the market for fast food ham? I still feel like this is a weird example of something Americans commonly do on Christmas.

> at least once a year over 40 years ago
From Seattle, same story. Thanksgiving and Christmas always included honey baked ham.
Not OP, but I’m from the Midwest, and I find your “must be a California thing” hilarious given that we were eating a Honey Baked Ham at least once a year over 40 years ago. Imagine my surprise (and regret that I had since gone vegetarian) when I moved to the west coast and found a Honey Baked Ham store in Bellevue, WA. My wife still gets one once in a great while, and I’d be lying if I said I didn’t sneak a piece or two.
Anyway, back to the point, looking their website prompts me to ask where one would have to live in the U. S. and not be within an hour’s drive of a store.
