Re: Tinned Spam
Yep I think they should have quit when SPAM left. As far as I’m concerned it’s not SPAM anymore. But I have to say SPAM is a better SPAM than SPAM but not as inventive. I think they are certainly are better without SPAM, who never really fitted in even though he had a great SPAM, but it just didn’t suit SPAM. I think they should do one last SPAM but as a tribute to SPAM. Why not call the SPAM SPAM and the SPAM of unreleased SPAM called SPAM as well. Although in poor health, maybe SPAM could rejoin, just for a few SPAM. I don’t think SPAM would ever rejoin as there would never be a meeting of minds with SPAM. If they do decide to continue, it won’t be SPAM. They will have to change from being SPAM to CORNED BEEF.
how did I get down here, well it's a long story

Mind you I'd always considered it's near relative the plumrose bacon grill to be a bit more earthy and macho; something you'd eat with home grown fried tomatoes sprinkled lightly with sugar, either before or after a hard day's graft. Either way you wouldn't want to eat any of it on a daily basis; not unless you were after a premature death.
If I am really lucky I might have a bacon grill 3 times a year. This is the allowance I am allowed by my better half who has much more will power than me.
Tomatoes sprinkled with sugar sounds great though and the sugar would melt so could be added surreptitiously and I would not get in trouble.

Re: Tinned Spam
I remember the days when you didn't have to sprinkle tomatoes with sugar,
they just tasted that way already, sour auld fucker that I am.

Re: Tinned Spam
This was back in the 70's. The debate at the time was about whether a tomato ( like a strawberry) is a fruit, or rather if it is a vegetable. Sugar has often been added in cooking to remove the acid taste although you would expect some caramelisation anyway with frying. As an aside I was told by someone who was following a macro-biotic diet at the time, that tomatoes and potatoes are both related to the belladonna plant. Who was it said "you are what you eat"?
