I haven't had spam since I was a child. Though, on rare occasion I do enjoy vienna sausages. I haven't had those in 6 years. And that's the history of me and canned meat.

Despite repeated promises, it fails to make my **** longer.

Spam is most excellent when fried and vienna sausages also rule. But no discussion of canned meat is complete without including the delicious corned beef hash. Mmmmm, hash.....

[Tale]

How about pork brains with milk gravy?

Corned Beef Hash is tasty and I have it myself about once a year. As far as spam and vienna sausages are concerned. No comment.

[Gfted1]

^Thats about the same frequency I have it. Its ridiculously high in fat and sodium.

I can't eat corned beef hash since I ate too much of it one day and got sick from all the salt. Spam is fine, though.

Is that real piggie brains? I've only had sheep's brains. Which are lovely, if scrambled with a splash of milk and served on toast with a shake of salt. (Make sure to remove the tough meningitic lining first, though; I once ordered brains in a restaurant and couldn't eat it as this can be as tough as a carapace, and is particularly tasteless.)

 

Of course it's high in fat: the brain is almost completely fat (which might explain why people with food disorders are so dim). It does contain some protein, though; brain surgery patients are served brains because it is very difficult for the body to create new proteins out of existing ones ... much better to have some of what you need to fashion into workable repairs for where they are needed.

Is the fat in the nueronal sheath?

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

Hmmm... I only eat internet spam.

[Azure79]

Spam and Tofu together are pretty good.

[metadigital]

That's like accelerating matter and antimatter up to the speed of light, and then colliding them at each other ...

[Tale]

How do you accelerate AT the speed of light? Do you mean to?

[LadyCrimson]

I have never eaten spam, and have no desire to try it.

[metadigital]

I think I tried spam once. And spat it out. And I've eaten snails.

Spam looks like cat food.

[Dark_Raven]

Not even a cat would touch it.

[Bokishi]

In b4 locky!

[Walsingham]

Spam is very nice. Put it cubed with rice and peas and some fresh chillis.

[Bokishi]

oh i guess not

[Walsingham]

Why would I lock a thread that is indirectly about Minnesota - the loon state?

[Bokishi]

Cuz it's spam foo'
