OMG Scotty, Vodka when I lived in Russia......:fie:
It took until about 1950 before my parents could discontinue the spam. I distinctly remember not liking it cooked but liking it straight from the can as a sandwich with mustard.Hi...
I'm hearing more and more about Spam. Pepper Spam, Bacon Spam, Smoked Spam, Low Fat Spam and a few others. Even Hormel now has a Spam and 'something' microwaveable dinner...!!
I always keep some on hand...for use at home...and in my GHB. I recently found out something interesting (to me) about it. DON'T cook it...!! Fried, it soaks up most of the oil, and ruins the flavor of eggs when you cook them in the same oil. My experience, anyway.
Now, I eat slices right from the can (I slice it IN the can)...with mayonnaise, mustard, or any favorite condiment. Much better that way.
Spam is a stable in the diet of Pacific Islanders and places like Hawaii. It has been around for along time because it can be transported by ship over long periods of time.
It was very similar to beef jerky. Ive had beef jerky, deer jerky, pork jerky and now kangaroo jerky. I think the jerky spices and processes kill a lot of the natural flavor of the meat... They're all pretty similar to me. It was tender though, not tough and stringy like a lot of the beef cuts.Kangaroo jerky! Whoa, now that’s different! What did it taste like? I’m guessing it might be similar to deer meat? Deer jerky is actually kind of good, though I'm not entirely sure about kangaroo...
