Here's the problem. Years ago my mother-in-law baked the most glorious ham but did not remember what type of ham she purchased. It tasted like a ham but needed to finish cooking. I ordered a "fresh ham" but it didn't taste like a ham, it tasted like pork. The meat came apart along the muscle fibers,and it was a very dark brown--not gray or gelatinous. So, what kind of ham did she buy???
