Originally Posted By trekkeruss In case anyone thinks SPAM is some kind of mystery meat, the list of ingredients is actually very short. SPAM is pork with ham, salt, water, modified potato starch, sugar, and sodium nitrite. So compared to many packaged convenience foods and/or snacks, it is practically natural.
Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan I have only tried SPAM a time or two, and only a small bite of it. Both times, the smell of it as the can was popped open reminded me too much of cat food. But Friskies Ocean Salmon flavor is wonderful with wild rice. ; )
Originally Posted By Mrs ElderP I'm a salt freak, so the occasional fried spam is alright with me. Maybe cut up and mixed in with scrambled eggs. As a matter of fact I have some in the cabinette and that sounds like lunch to me!

Originally Posted By MissCandice I know I have had it at least once but I can't remember if I liked it, kind of like my opinion of Waffle House. So I am neutral on the subject I suppose.
Originally Posted By mawnck I understand Spam is very popular in a lot of Asian countries, including some where most people are skinny. Visit an Asian market in Southern California, and you will be astounded at how many Spam knockoffs there are. Some of 'em also sell Spam California rolls.

Originally Posted By officerminnie ^^^^^ I'm with you on the corned beef, u k fan. In fact, I don't know how Dave could have used the words SPAM and corned beef in the same sentence!
