So, they’re putting lipstick on a pig. Literally.

Maybe you dont remember how they used to be. I know they were still good in the sixties, because I used to barbecue them at a house I rented then. Didnt matter how well-done you wanted them, they were still juicy and delicious. Oh, I do remember. Growing up in the 70's basically you could not go wrong whatever the cut of meat. My Mom turned out an endless great dinners of pork roasts, beef roasts, daisy hams, chops, flank steaks, and meatloaf. Nowadays, it is just not the same, and I blame most of it on the ongoing public worry over 'fat'.
The one exception I have found is a well marbleized pork butt roast (I wonder what its new name will be?) can make a pretty nice roast; and it's cheap.

It looks good but I am in Texas and you are in Penn. I doubt if I could get it here. I buy a couple of brands of ham here, one is applewood smoked ham by Neiman Ranch. I keep several frozen, they are there when I need them.

That’s Taylor Pork Roll, often called Taylor ham. It’s made in NJ, I believe. You could get it on the Seasides Heights Boardwalk when the boardwalk was still there. A few delis in NYC used to have it but they don’t seem to any more. Wonderful stuff if it’s cooked right.
