Used to eat Spam all the time. Tried Scrapple once, and almost threw up after the first bite.

That's the difference to me - lol.

omg...270mg of Sodium from one thin slice.

And why can't the slices touch?!

Some type of nuclear reaction, I think.


BTW, the sodium isnt that much. Most hot dogs contain two or three times that amount,
and one slice of SPAM has 790 mg.

And that nutrition label is a joke. Look at the serving size. 1/4 to 1/2 inch slice. So they are saying that a 1/4 inch slice has the same
nutritional values as a 1/2 inch slice. Well, Heck, guess I'll just have the 1/2 inch slice because you get more without worrying about extra calories, fat, sodium, etc.
 
due to inconsistency of stuff the 1/4 to 1/2 inch slice could be right.

mmmmmm Chorizo, gona think twice next time ;p
 
My great uncle in Abilene, KS used to own the Broadway Market many moons ago. They specialized in meats and cheeses. One of their specialties was scrapple. They had one customer who liked their scrapple so much he had them ship him some overseas during WW II. Being in Abilene you can guess who it was. Yep, Gen. Eisenhower.
I always heard scrapple came from the Pennsyvania Dutch.
And Spam and souse (head cheese) are totally different. I love all three. I love a good hot head cheese with a slice of Muenster, and brown spicy mustard on pumpernickel or rye.

PA also contributed to the PA long rifle, wet bottom shoo fly pies, faschnachts and whoopie pies. Don't let anybody try to tell you that whoopie didn't originate in PA!

Looks like a good home for leftover bits of meat of any variety, kinda like Jambalaya.

I think at this point, I'll just stick with the Spam.
 
This thread has remained good as long as a can of opened Spam will be good... yes many, many years!! Spam is 90 % saturated fat and 80% salt!!!
