    The more I hear about poi the more I understand how the have

    Don't knock Spam. The reality is that Spam is trending in the US. One
    day, you might find yourself eating Spam and be happy about it. You
    will rue the days when you dissed it. This will probably happen in
    the aftermath of nuclear war, of course.

    I'm not a regular Spam fan, but a post like this can make me crave the
    Spam turkey. It's pretty good and probably healthy too. Also I live in
    SLC, Utah. Maybe it's something in the water.

    I remember Spam from my childhood. It was basically just meatloaf in a

    those days.

    Spam fritters are essentially slices of spam deep fried in a batter.
    Word has it these came about in WW2 when there was a shortage of fish
    in Britain, so we decided to replace it with Spam.

    Tonkatsu, deep fried breaded pork cutlet, is one of the most popular
    dishes in Japan, and an early example of yoshoku, a fusion of Japanese
    and Western cuisine. Instead of a pork cutlet, werCOre taking it a step
    further by using a more recent American creation, SPAM!
