Re: SPAM - 5 months ago

If you go to the SPAM Museum in Austin, MN (I've been twice) you can get every variety they currently produce worldwide, even the ones not made for the US market. Or you can grab a few of the funky varieties at the SPAM booth at the Minnesota State Fair (starts next week). I have one of these beauties and it works like a charm. Fried slices on toast with ketchup and I'm in heaven.
