DESCRIPTION (per Amazon):
"This is the taste that started it all, the original flavor from 1937. And
like any good classic, the SPAMvariety at the heart of it all has held
true as a reliable, delicious and innovative element for any meal."
(According to that Amazon price-tracking website, it has been $19.52 for
most of 2010. At $10.96, you're paying $1.83 per can--and that is $0.15 an
ounce . . . or $2.44 a pound. When did you last buy ANY meat for under $2.
50 a pound that made great sandwiches or a solid meat for the main course?
To me, that is a fantastic SD! )
Ok, people. Keep the jokes to yourself. Having recently been in a
situation where I HAD to eat this, it is surprisingly good. Cooked, it is a
great flavoring agent for vegetables . . . and it makes a fantastic
sandwich. When I've traveled, I've been amazed how much SPAM is used in
many really great dishes--like sushi, BBQ, and a whole host of Pacific-Rim
Asian foods (islands of the South Pacific are my favorite places to visit).
If you believe the stats, SPAM is consumed more than any other meat in the
world . . . and 3.8 of these cans are consumed EVERY SECOND within the U.S.!
Some of us have had our incomes reduced (a lot) during 2010 . . . and this
purchase equals over 6 meals!
WOW!
(I have a GREAT recipe for this with potatoes and green beans. If you want
it, PM me.)
