Ham discolors due to several factors, primarily the oxidation of pigments in the meat, such as myoglobin. Exposure to air, light, and varying temperatures can accelerate this process, leading to changes in color from pink to gray or brown. Additionally, microbial growth can also contribute to discoloration, especially if the ham is not stored properly. Proper storage and handling can help minimize these changes.
