30 Days of Spam: Too Much or Not Nearly Enough?
One Nebraskan Spam fan is so enamored by the processed pork-based canned luncheon meat and the upcoming Spam-centric tome, The Book of Spam, that he's taken on a mission to incorporate it into every meal he eats for 30 days. You can watch the Spam-eating magic unfold until August 28th on his blog, 30 Days of SPAM. Although he mainly writes about what Spam-based dish he's made for the day, my favorite entry is his latest one about his subconscious Spam thoughts:
I had a SPAM-related dream last night. No joke. And I dream a lot, so it's probably no big deal, but it is funny. From what I recall, SPAM was an actual person and we were traveling in space together.
If he's already having funny dreams featuring anthropomorphic Spam, I'm afraid of what will happen to his dreams at the end of the 30 day period.

"From what I recall, SPAM was an actual person and we were traveling in space together." And I assume the SPAM person was also talking to him ...
I don't know, this almost sounds like rubber room time to me! ;-)

I have to preface this by saying that even though my Mom was a good cook, she did feed us one SPAM dish now and then...actually, it was quite good.....french bread, every 4 inches or so make a slice and insert slice of SPAM, mozarella cheese, and a tbsp or so of spaghetti sauce...wrap in foil and bake for 15-20 minutes until cheese melts....
A friend in the military was posted in Guam and said that SPAM is a big part of their diet...I don't know about their health situation.

Elaine: That kinda sounds good. My mom served me Spam when I was a kid—Spam and cheese. I loved it. Someday I might try your recipe here.

I've never understood the appeal of Spam...I tried it once at a friend's home and just about gagged...I guess it's an 'acquired' taste. :) I'm not sure if this is still true but I saw somewhere that Hawaiians consume the most Spam in the USA...all that fresh seafood and they love their Spam...go figure?
