SPAM has to be the worst tasting food ever

[McPainsBrain]

I bought a can of it today because I'd never tried it before. Yuck. That crap is disgusting. So salty and it doesn't even taste like meat. How can anyone eat it? Does it have to be cooked? Am I missing something? :(

1. well, when we were kids

my dad would sometimes cut it up and fry it and we'd have spam sandwiches, or cut it up, fry it and put it with vegetables in an omelet.
we liked it since it was a rare 'treat' to have any kind of junk food.

haven't had it since being vegetarian for 15 years, but even if I still ate meat, it'd still be too nasty for my taste.

2. You aren't supposed to eat it!!!

You're supposed to build with it;)

9. Heh - my brother did some very creative Spam-building a few years back when we had a big family

vacation. Your photo really takes me back!!

3. Sliced up relatively thin and fried, then

put on a sandwich with a scrambled egg, a little lawry's seasoned salt and mayo(I prefer Miracle whip) and yummo! :9

They do make a lower sodium spam.

That's the only way I eat it.

17. Have you got anything that's not got spam in it?

[Oeditpus Rex]

18. There's Spam, egg, sausage and Spam

That's not got much Spam in it.

[elshiva]

20. I don't want any Spam at all.

:hug: Hello, Oedi, too bad I got to go to bed now. Thank you.

6. Close. Blood sausage is tops in my book,

along with mincemeat pie. But spam is right up there.

7. I don't like it raw, but fried to the point where it's getting a bit brown and crispy, it's really

not bad. Good with a bit of ketchup (I also like a little ketchup on my home fries or fried ham at breakfast). Or fry it up, put between two slices of toast with a bit of ketchup -- fried spam sandwich! Now I'm wanting one.

But cold raw Spam --- YUCK!

12. SPAM ain't that bad...

I have a Culinary degree. You do practically anything with it. Casseroles, sandwiches, soups. It's versatile!
(But, for pete's sake...use the LOW-SODIUM version.)

on the travel channel.

spam is simple comfort food compared to what he consumes...

13. Don't Move To Hawaii

They love SPAM over there.

[Godhumor]

16. Ooh, spam musubi--even served in the convenience stores there

It always amazed me how invasive it was when I lived on Oahu.

14. Fried to a crisp in honey works for me.

15. Something Posing As Meat

Canned meat for soldiers during WWII. I guess it's an acquired taste.

19. Don't make a fuss, dear

I'll have your Spam; I love it! I'm having Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, baked beans, Spam, Spam, Spam and Spam!

21. I like Spam

Sliced up on white bread with mustard and Texas Pete hot sauce. Eat a couple or three of those at the end of an all night beer guzzling party, and a person will have one heck of a head splitting, cotton mouth hangover for the whole next day.

Trust me, I speak from experience.

24. Someone that actually knows what

a Spam sammich is supposed to have on it.

[old mark]

22. Slice it, fry it with eggs. MMM! Fry it and make sandwichesMMM!!!

The common word is FRY.

FWIW, there is an imitation Spam, made by Armor, called Treet.
Don't ever buy that stuff - it is like synthetic Spam, if you can imagine such.
My dog doesn't even like it.

23. I believe that your life would have been of better quality

had you not tried it. I too fell victim to it once.

[WinkyDink]

25. Um, yeah, COOKING is the important thing here! Fried, like an egg ( and eaten with same!)!
