Maybe it was the ham and too much of a salt water product.
The amount of water varies and the more the water, the less the flavor.

"Ham" indicates a cured pork leg that is at least 20.5% protein with no added water.
"Ham with natural juices" is the next level down. It needs to be only 18.5% protein, and generally has about 7 or 8% added water.
"Ham, water added" must contain at least 17% protein, and can contain at most 10% added water by weight.
"Ham and water product" can contain any amount of added water.
Check the label to see how much water is actually added to it (the ham we tasted from Cook's had a whopping 23% added liquid!).
