#1: Jabba the… Ham?
The Christmas ham is often the highlight of a holiday dinner. The thing is, not everyone finds roasted meat to be very appealing. Looking at this picture, we can’t exactly blame them. This person was back home for the holidays when they noticed that the ham their mom roasted looked a lot like a famous Star Wars character. Take a look. Yup, it totally looks like Jabba the Hutt, huh?
The ham itself looks delicious (at least to meat-eaters), but the shape and size of it brings to mind everyone’s favorite evil blob. The cut down the middle looks like Jabba the Ham is smiling out at us, daring us to take a bite. Hopefully, their mom cut up the ham and served it on a different platter for dinner.
