On the episode Bargain Day Foley has a sign in his door advertising Picnics 
29 cents. ?Any idea what that would mean?

Sam,  picnics would be picnic hams.

Sam, that would refer to picnic hams, which are actually made from shoulder 
meat.  So I'm assuming the sign really means Picnic hams, 29 cents per pound. 
 I think they are normally cheaper than a true ham, which comes from the back 
of the hog.

 Picnics 29 cents. 
They are cuts of pork. There's Roast Picnic, Butt Picnic, etc. It's not used 
much anymore but in its day they were a favorite selling point in meat markets.

The sign in Mr. Foley's window about Picnics refers to picnic hams, 
another name for pork shoulder.

Sam, when a grocery store advertises Picnics, at 29 cents a pound, they are 
speaking of Picnic Hams.   The whole time I was growing up I was never sure why 
they were called Picnic Hams, because we sure never went on any picnic when 
we ate them.But I guess some people did.Orville Hendricks - Mount Pilot 
Butter and Egg Man.You could have some of that picnic ham with some of my 
eggs for breakfast tomorrow morning.

 Every time they show the front of the grocery store there is a sign for
 Picnics and gives their price. What is a picnic?


Hi Ted,

I'm guessing that refers to picnic hams, which were presumably second to
fried chicken in picnic protein popularity in Mayberry.

Picnics and Boiled Dinners

for Picnics and gives their price. What is a picnic?

Paul answered this one first, but I found something of interest at  
http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-picnic-ham.htm where it said a picnic ham was 
a major component of a Boiled Dinner. Looks Foley's Market is the source for at 
least one of ingredients when the Fire Department has a Boiled Dinner and 
cribbage.

Ted, I've noticed that, too.  A picnic is a ham made out of pork shoulder.
