Gov paying over a half million dollars a pound for sliced ham?

Gov paying over a half million dollars a pound for sliced ham?
"According to Recovery.gov, the new Obama website showing us how much the country is being stimulated by government spending, the taxpayers are buying sliced frozen ham at $550,000 per pound.

I wonder what they would pay for fresh ham?

And here I thought prosciutto was expensive. Is this going to be served to guests at one of the many parties the Obamas like to throw? Half million dollar a pound ham won't really impress the Saudis, if Obama offers it to them, no matter how low he bows.

This makes the $100/lb wagyu steaks used at White House parties look like a bargain.
