Let them eat SPAM!

Someone needs to build an overlanding friendly vertical mini-spit to roast a full can of Spam that can be shaved off Gyro style into a flat bread/tortillyer

I was born and raised in Chicago.

Chicago is a festering pustule on the face of the planet with virtually no redeeming characteristics aside the food.

I to this day I reflect fondly on the sweating, glistening homogenized mass of Spam-like "meat" generically described as "Gyro". Impaled vertically, and rotating slowly on a power skewer whose hygiene would certainly fall into question were it not for the prevailing temperature of the whole affair.

If a man is going to indulge in otherwise unidentifiable, mechanically coagulated biomass, surely he can indulge in a cooking style designed to soften the impact of what he is actually eating.

Or you can fry it.

Like a savage.

I'd love to have you sitting around my camp fire. You would be the life of the party telling us about your fond memories of sweating homogenized mass of spam like Meat impaled on the Gyro. We would all need a surgeon to stitch up all our bellies from the splitting laughter.

Sous Vide is also a viable option. With a reduced temperature and no contact with hot metal, the nitrates end up being less toxic and the cell structure of the biomass is not charred to the point of becoming a carcinogen.



awh....who am i kidding??? IT'S SPAM!!!!

All other goals in life set aside, if I can make you smile I have satisfied my obligation to you.

There are just too many things in life that bring sadness and pain to miss a chance to laugh, even if you're laughing at yourself.

Bruce, I've got you listed in my Good Guy book. I mean it when I say I'd love to have you in my camp. You could improve my grammar, my knowledge about tires and make me laugh at the same time.

I think it was Marie Antoinette that said "Let them eat cake" and they chopped off her head. 225 years later, and I get the same reaction to Spam. Wife won't touch it, kids run from it, and even the roaches scurry around it. I don't get it. When I pop open a can of Spam and that big gelatinous lump falls onto the paper plate still holding the shape of the can, my mouth can't help but water. Its a delicate balance of salt, fat and nitrites that make my taste buds tingle. (My left arm also starts tingling after eating a can for some reason). I think its the perfect food... no refrigeration, indefinite shelf life, and you don't even need a can opener. Even after opening a can, the contents can stay out a long time and are still as good as the day it was congealed at the factory.

All I know is that if eating Spam is wrong, I don't ever want to be right! So, for all the Spam eaters out there...raise your plastic spork in a toast to the world's most perfect food! Did I say toast? Yeah, Spam goes great on that, too!

My wife won’t even buy it. Years ago, she volunteered to do my shopping ahead of a trip. I thought, AHA!, now is my chance so I added Spam to the list. She bought turkey Spam.

Never tried turkey SPAM...just save the empty can and slip some regular SPAM in it when she's not looking...

When I used to travel a lot to the Middle east and South Asia, I always had several Spam singles in my backpack along with some other snacks.
I knew if the airline meal was not to my liking, I always had bread , butter and Spam .

I still keep a couple of packs in my backpack when I travel.

Fried thin enough it's better than chips for a snack. Dip in Guacamole and enjoy ...

hummm....not sure what the first worse reason is, but have a feeling the jalapeno SPAM would be a no-go...

Pure genius right there. I personally would have eaten the spam and drank the rum straight from the bottle, but I have to give credit where its due.

I’m kinda stupid. I would’ve ate the Spam & used the can as a cup but what do I know?
