Guess what I had for lunch today? U Got it... Spam! You know I had completely forgotten about Spam. That much maligned mystery meat product. Did you know they make low-fat Spam? I was afraid to try it when I saw it in the local grocery store here in Thailand when I saw it start appearing on the shelves about one month ago. I thought Spam had gone the way of Tab cola, and pet rocks, but I guess if the Chia Pet is still selling then why not Spam?

So, anyway the wife was interested in finding out what pre-processed meat in a can was like and we bought some. Took it home, fried it, toasted some bread to go with it... had it with cheese, tomato, mustard, cucumber... had it with jelly on a biscuit, had it a couple other ways. You know what? It was damn tasty! So what exactly is the deal with all the bad press about Spam over the years? Does anyone remember? I mean, people eat chicken McNuggets... that meat is as mysterious as it gets! We all eat lots of processed products with no redeeming value - who out there likes white bread? Uh-huh! See? Personally I hate white bread, but that's a topic for a different day.

Today... SPAM! Spamford and Son, Spama-lamma-ding-dong, Spamticipation, Spam-o-matic, make mine to go!
