A Sandwich a Day: Pork Roll on a Hard Roll, Who's On Third, Spring Lake, NJ
After our favorite breakfast sandwiches in America roundup this morning, many of you were clamoring for some pork roll love. Well, here it is! If you haven't spent much time in New Jersey, it's possible you've never sampled the delicacy that is the Pork Roll Sandwich. What is Pork Roll, exactly? Sort of a cross between Canadian Bacon and Spam.Photo of the Day: Spampersand
[Photograph: Monsieur Cabinet] Spam + & = SPAMPERSAND! It goes nicely with graphic designer David Thompson's other masterpiece of canned meat-based typography, the corned beef hash (tag).

You don't really want to see the stage in between "can" and "wonton." Photographs from The Tasty Island. What would you do with a neglected, second-hand can of Spam Spread? If you're Pomai of Hawaii-based blog The Tasty Island and are drawn to Spam in all its variations, you will brave the unavoidable horrors of unleashing this spreadable version of Spam for the purpose of writing a pseudo-masochistic, three-part series comparing it to the similar, but even less appealing, Libby's Potted Meat Food Product. Even if you never plan on Spam Spread touching your lips, Pomai's posts are worth an entertaining read. Here are some choice quotes from his posts.

Photograph by Robyn Lee As Americans cut costs, they're starting to put more Spam back on the table. But these days, consumers are rediscovering relatively cheap foods, Spam among them. A 12-ounce can of Spam, marketed as “Crazy Tasty,” costs about $2.40. “People are realizing it’s not that bad a product,” said Dan Johnson, 55, who operates a 70-foot-high Spam oven. I love the mental image of a 70-foot-high Spam oven. Related: How to Make Spam Musubi...Snapshots From Hawaii: Spam Musubi
Leaving our parkas behind in the snowdrifts of western Massachusetts, eight of us descended onto Honolulu for Spring Break: Hawaii. Okay, so before you conjure up visions of wet t-shirts, body shots, and mortified mothers all over the country watching MTV, think again. Well, almost (sorry Mom!). But really, we surely did more eating than anything else. Lucky for us, our friend Tommy was born and raised in Honolulu, so not only was he so generous to house our raucous bunch at his mountainous bamboo forest abode, we were promised the best eats the island has to offer. Most importantly, he took us to the same spots he rushes to the moment he returns home from school. Our college...Photo of the Day: Spam Musubi Smackdown
What's the best meat to use in a Spam musubi? Pomai of Honolulu-based food blog The Tasty Island tested Treet, Tulip, and Spam brand luncheon meats to find out. After comparing and rating their flavors, textures, and levels of deliciousness in musubi form on a scale of one to three, he found that each one had its own individual qualities (good or bad depending on your preference), but deemed Spam the king of luncheon meats. If you've never had Spam musubi before, try making your own! Just make sure you have a Spam musubi press to get that perfect brick-shape....Toastvertising from Spam
I know I'm basically flacking for Hormel Foods with the above video, but that's nature of this viral video junk, innit? And, yeah, I know burning designs in toast is so passé, but you have to admit that this is some pretty hot stop-motion toastimation. Here's the story behind the vid.

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...Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
