Questions I have about SPAM...
Pardon me while I wax Andy Rooney-esque for a moment but...

What is a SPAM anyways?

Can you hunt SPAMs or are they domesticated?

Do SPAMS get abused in factory farming - you know... kept in little cans?

Are there free range SPAMs?

:rofl:

1. You do not want to know the secrets of the SPAM
there are some things that humans were not meant to know


...

By the way, not even the Sun Conure, that eats ANYTHING dared try it.. or rather she did, and then spit it all over the place...

3. Ah that is a good movie
and WE are getting old

But think about this, a small parrot tried it, and then spit out out, all over the place

That has its own humor.

Ah she is sleeping as I type... wonder if her ears are buzzying?

7. That too.
Spam's for special occasions. Treat's for everyday vittles.

9. It's spelled Treet.


Treet & Spam are actually not too bad. I remember eating it quite often when I was a little kid...many years ago!

20. Be sure to slice some very thin and fry it. Not too bad like that.
Or make corned beef hash with it, subbing spam for the corned beef, of course.

11. Originally, I think it stood for "Spiced Ham"
when it was first invented and marketed. But I don't know how unwanted email came to be called Spam. I think it had something to do with Monty Python's sketch where they just sang, "Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, ..."
