The relish tray discussion reminded me that sometimes we had apple rings in some sort of spicy red liquid packed in a little round jar when I was a kid.  They were commonly available at grocery stores.

I haven't seen or thought about them in years, so do they still make them?  And what were they called?  I can't remember!

Looks like they are still available!

@Sooner  Wow! Blast from the past! Yes, I do remember them. Thanks @Zhills  for the picture. My mom never served them, but we had so many Sunday meals at ministers' houses from other churches, they are a clear memory. I didn't eat them because they looked artificial, but I'm guessing they tasted like sugar and cinnamon. Right?

My mom would decorate the turkey with these and Spiced peaches. The turkey would have a circle of the apple slices and spiced peaches. We loved the peaches.

@Sooner.  I, too, thought about spiced apples during the relish tray caper.  How I loved them!  I haven't been in a grocery store for years now so don't know if they're still on the shelves.

I checked Walmart and our version of Kroger.  Neither had them.  Maybe a more gourmet store?

Oh, I use to love those and they're so decorative. Okay, now I've gotta find some...

Peaches!  That's it!  My step mother did a Hostess ham with glaze and spiced peaches;  I never liked that kind of ham or country ham, never tried the peaches, (hate lots of salt).

I prefer brown sugar glazed ham

@ECBG Salt!  A food group for me!  I adore salt.  Although I have cut down.  I like the ham without anything but ham on the outside!  And I always heat it until the juices start to run no matter what the package says!

I have never heard of these but they do sound like they are good!

Enjoy the salt my Dear!  It burns my mouth.
