Considering that canned ham probably isn't the healthiest of foods out there, you shouldn't be disappointed if you one day open a can to find a Haminal plush toy. This cute cuddler looks just as delicious, but without the unwanted side effects.
Created by artist Crystal Chesney-Thompson, the Haminal plush toy comes complete with a can and lid. Priced at $14.95, you might not be able to eat it, but at least you'll be able to enjoy it for longer than it takes to sit down for a meal.
