A google AI response to the search "Ham Limit" which reads: "Ham limit" can refer to different things, but most commonly it means the recommended quantity of ham to purchase per person for a meal, or the temperature limit for reheating cooked ham. For food safety, hams require heating to 140°F (60°C) if purchased from the plant, or 165°F (74°C) if they've been repackaged. For serving, plan for 1/3 to 1/2 pound of bone-in ham, or 1/4 to 1/3 pound of boneless ham per person
