I think a can o' Spam should be subsituted for the black bar...

[sa_butta]

I havent had spam since I was a kid. I guess I dont like it to much, I dont remember.

[trueD]

I was wondering what's up with the Spam logo too.

After a little research, I found little-to-no information as to why SPAM (the acronym or the "sp"iced h"am", I dunno) was used to describe that thing we all hate to muddle thru on the internet and mostly hate to eat too. Seems it came from a Monty Python skit in a restaurant, someting about Vikings singing the praises of SPAM meat. Still doesn't explain how bad meat can be compared to internet advertisement frolicking.

For some crazy reason I craved SPAM during pregnancy, but don't tell my kids. Of all the things they were accustomed to ingesting during lean times in their growing up years, SPAM was never one of them I am proud to say.

Can you still eat it now?

I craved slurpees and quarter pounders with cheese. Nice and healthy!

Hawaiians eat spam all the time. My husband loves it. They fry it up w/up eggs and have it with lunch or whenever. It's disgusting. We only only ate it during the poor times when I was growing up. I never touch the stuff now.

For me it was Hardee's Hot Ham-n-Cheese Sandwiches for lunch and their bacon, egg & cheese biscuits for breakfast when I was pregnant.

Slurpees....what could possibly be in a slurpee that is nutritional? Guess you can ask the same about SPAM. And no, I've never made the actual choice to eat SPAM when not pregnant. Milkshakes were also a fav of mine while with child. Never liked them before and still don't (I loathe milk, except with cookies and sweetened cereal).

[atxrocker]

you mean people outside of trailer parks actually eat this ?

[Mr. Black]

What?...just because I'm white means I love spam, well damnit, its true... I love it, fried... baked, chocolate covered then fried, its delicious.

[Pugglekicker_21]

I still dont know why its circling the forum le.

[baseline bum]

I'd rather eat Rosie than a can of Spam... well, maybe not, but it's ing disgusting.

SPAM you SUCK. You are a fraud. That greasy that surrounds your canned existance looks more palatable.
