If you want your pig-meat, here's SPAM with Bacon!

After gliding around the amusing SPAM website from the latest Weird Earl’s, I happened upon the SPAM varieties page. Hickory Smoked SPAM and Hot and Spicy SPAM sound pretty good (well, as far as it goes), SPAM with Cheese and Garlic SPAM not so much, and SPAM with Turkey just isn’t right.

But SPAM with Bacon! The pig union can’t be too happy with that concoction. Ham, pork, and bacon in one tempting, gelatinous slab. What’s next, SPAM with Bacon Hot Dogs (now with extra lips and assholes!)? You’d almost think they could market SPAM with Bacon in little, pig-shaped tins and it would make a nice tribute to the poor ungulate that gave all he had. That’ll do, pig. That’ll do.

I think I’m in love!

Do NOT disrespect the Spam! It represents all that is good and right and pure in tinned meats (except for Underwood Roast Beef spread which can be rather hard to find but you can order it by the case online).

Waitaminute!
Roast Beef spread? That’s crazy talk.
Clearly the SPAM Co is trying to use every part of the pig in its pork products. It’s very eco-friendly.

I think they should market it with a star-shaped callout on the tin that proudly proclaims, “Now with MEAT!”

I tried it the other day, only because I couldn’t find a tin of Bacon Grill. It’s OK, I guess.

Chicken fried Bacon Spam, fried in Bacon fat. Mmmmmmm. I’ll leave funeral instructions.

The gratuitous use of the word ‘bacon’ is impressive.

The density of bacony goodness of this WRAPPED inside of bacon has been scientifically proven to be the cause of tiny tasty black holes. Wrapping again in bacon will cause the universe to implode.

I don’t like SPAM!

Moving thread from IMHO to Cafe Society.

When I was a kid I thought Spam was actually meat flavored Jell-o. Blech.

Is SPAM produced by Native Americans?

Moderator’s Note: Really moving to Cafe Society.

Finally, Americans can make a traditional English breakfast like spam, spam, spam, bacon, spam, bacon, spam, and spam with ease.

Although personally, I’m a Hormel corned beef hash man. I like it best with jerk sauce and a couple of eggs scrambled in as it’s frying.

That’s not a million miles from the truth.

BTW, I’ve reported the spam in this thread.

If SPAM is “pork shoulder and ham”, then why would you make it with Turkey and name it SPAM? Shouldn’t it be named SPURKEY?

If they made it with skunk or termites, it would have to be named Spunk or Spermite, who would buy it then?

Try the “SPAM with Cheese and Garlic SPAM”. It doesn’t have too much SPAM in it.
