With having gout Spam is off the menu but loved the stuff as a kid. As I got older not so much except in fried rice. Then I found out about Korean Army Base Stew or Budae Jjigae.

We like to make SPAM sandwiches occasionally - fried in a cast iron skillet and served on sandwich bread with mayo, mustard and lettuce and a pickle on the side. Quick, easy and tasty.

If someone gives it to me, I give it to the dog and feel a bit guilty about it. She loves it, tho!

People just give you SPAM out of the blue? How often? Why?

You could politely decline to take it, or give it to a food bank.

... and the squirrel?

I knew someone would ask. It's an inside joke from the food forum that did the contests. It relates to a secret society that doesn't exist -- kind of like Fight Club. CraigC probably knows.

Whether you grill it or fry it, you do have to get a decent brown char on the outside for it to taste good. Cast iron works!

I'll take a nice thick slice of baloney, fried or grilled.

I use Chorizo Spam in some of my Mexican cooking. Great stuff!! Unlike fresh Chorizo, it's gristle free and perfectly seasoned every time. I chop it into tiny pieces before frying.

Ya know, I've tried a lot of the different
flavors, but I keep coming back around to the
25% less sodium

That's what I buy on the rare occasions that I buy SPAM. I honestly can't taste any difference. I take meds for high blood pressure, so I avoid excess sodium.

Spam -- grew up with it, we had it a lot camping. -- Always loved it fried-
For awhile I wouldn't buy it as I would want only a slice or 2, but now they have single serving and I get once and awhile. love a fried egg sandwich with a slice of fried spam also love in in scallop potatoes if I don't ham and other ham on hand. Brings back childhood memories.

[dragnlaw]

this morning, on opening my computer, I saw 38 messages in my Junk mail -
so what do I do with my SPAM - I delete it!



Sorry, it was the first thing I thought when I read the title of the email from DC!

I have enjoyed Spam for over 60 years.

Its not a staple, with me, anymore but, I get cravings and pick up a tin @ the grocers. Spam and eggs, Spam and onion sandwiches. Yum
