SPAM is AWESOME

I've never tried it. There's a huge mental hurdle to overcome with SPAM for me. It may be the best tasting thing on the planet, but to me it's still SPAM and with it comes negative connotations.

I was the same way. Fight society! EAT SPAM
 
My wife's family and I chanted my brother-in-law's name until he ate an entire can of SPAM. He had a mean case of the meat sweats.
 
In grade school they used to serve spam and cheese to us every now and then for lunch and I remember really liking it. I'm not sure if I'd actually go out and buy a can now 'cause I'm much more health conscience than I was then, but yeah from what I remember spam was pretty good.

I don't know what the meat sweats are, but I desperately wish to witness someone experience them. I'm picturing someone fidgiting uncontrollably, sweating bullets and ranting like a loon about the meat and their meat-based hallucinations.
 
I was fucking hungry one day and tried it myself..sliced a few pieces, fried it a bit on the pan, and put it on toast with mustard...pretty tasty
 
SPAM is pretty tasty. I got it one day to see how gross it was, and I was completely suprised by how nice it tasted.

SPAM burgers rock.
 
SPAM does rock. Fry it in a pan, give me either bread or rice and I'm good to go. People are rather surprise at how it taste the first time since there seems to be a negative mentality against it.

Spam gets a lot of hate. I'm not a big spender on food so spam was always my staple meat product. And fried or oven toasted spam = good. Crispy fried Spam on steamed rice is also great.

I don't remember particularly caring for it. But it's been YEARS since I've had it.
Turkey SPAM nearly made me hurl just opening the can.
It's SPiced hAM, no?
 
I'm not an overly big fan of SPAM, but musubis freakin rule (rice ball with a slice of SPAM..similar to a japanese onigiri). Had a few when I was in Hawaii, good stuff.

I love that skit. :D

Btw, you know what would be really awesome? Tofu spam. That way us vegetarians could sample the wonders of spam too. :P
 
I don't mind the taste of SPAM much, but since I reached the point where I at least pay some attention to the nutrition values portion of the package, if it's going to give me like 80% of my daily fat and 300% of my daily sodium, it's got to be better than OK. I similarly haven't eaten bologna in a long time.
 
Snake - "Medic, what can you tell me about this can of SPAM?"

Medic - "Snake! Don't eat that ! It's processed meat, very bad for your blood circulation and eyesight!"

Snake - "But the can says it's delicious, plus it can last a long time."

Medic - "Stop that right now Snake, you're better off eating those russian rations."

Snake - "I'm having a bite."

Medic - "NO!"

end of transmission

Snake eats can of SPAM.

Snake - "MMmmm, pretty tasty~"


sorry, you guys saying "pretty tasty" made me think of MGS3.
 
I remember hearing some SPAM ads from early 1940's radio shows and it was portrayed as a high-class product. Lot different from the endless jokes made about it today.

As for me, I've eaten SPAM before and it was pretty good.
 
I remember being a kid and going to the store and being surprised that SPAM was still made. I really have to try it some time.

Closest thing you'll probably get to it:

Last time I had it I was in high school. I recall it being salty, juicy and very good. I think some reputation issues (like Olimario) have impacted me such that I have not had it since.
 
Sometimes I have grilled slices of spam in a sandwich with ketchup instead of bacon. Oh god I need some now, and it's at home in the fridge :( I got the 'limited edition' SPAM with cracked black pepper.

*drool*
 
Always been afraid to try it. Thought it was discontinued years ago...*

*might be thinking of the Israeli army version of SPAM.
 
As others have said, slightly pan-browned spam is the tastiest meat you could add to a good quantity of bland flavoured whatever.

Try tomato, eggs and spam.
 
I like Spam Lite best. I don't feel icky if I try to eat a whole lot (which i like doing with all foods :D) and it's better for you!

i eat my spam with eggs and sometimes glazed with a lil bit o this
