'A full pound , family sized loaf of cooked, chopped ham plus a delightful spiced fruit raisin sauce in a sack inside the ham-shaped tin!

Excellent! Thanks for posting to Wiener World, my mostly ignored Gather group dedicated to wieners.

The people of Vienna (Wien), Austria point to the term "wiener" to prove their claim as the birthplace of the hot dog. It is said that the master sausage maker who made the first wiener got his early training in Frankfurt, Germany. He called his sausage the "wiener-frankfurter." But it was generally known as "wienerwurst." The wiener comes from Wien (the German name of Vienna) and wurst means sausage in German.

"Many people think all frankfurters are the same. Nothing could be more wrong. Too often the frankfurter in the market display case is a dreary hunk of pressed meat. There is not much you can do to give it flavor. Hunt out German shops, Greek or Kosher delicatessens for the well-seasoned franks." by James Beard, famous culinary writer and cook

I agree. I had intended for this group to be a showcase for some of the best wieners I've had (and Oscar Mayer isn't included). I didn't get very far. I do have a bunch of pictures to share eventually.
