😃 LOL _Penguins!_ (laughing with you, not at you)

And I like pickled beets too.

gahhhh I haven’t bought bananas in years because they always spoil when I blink my eyes. I also completely mind farted on the Kentucky Derby.

Maybe I won’t be dead last again, but I’ll most likely be in the bottom half.

I picked peppers for the pickled question-- you know “Peter piper picked a peck…” Couldn’t get it out of my mind.

Nope. That’s me.

Just glancing at some other answers…more people have Spam in the pantry than tuna? No wonder the end of the world is near! 🙂

I buy tuna all the time. But I buy it in those little bags. I don’t think I’ve ever bought Spam. If I was picking what kind of canned meat I buy the most often, it would be corned beef hash, which I buy once or twice a year.

But the point of the game isn’t to pick the best answer or your personal answer. It’s to pick the most common answer.

Also, while fish is technically a subset of meat, when people say meat, in my experience they mean “dead land based animal”. Dead pig is “meat”, dead tuna is “fish” and they are different categories of food.

I’ve never eaten Spam in my life, but I figured it would be the most common answer. I have cans of sardines, but how many people would consider them meat? What else, Vienna sausages?

3 cans of tuna in my pantry, 2 cans of corned beef, and 1 can of Spam, but I put Spam. Tuna isn’t meat and Spam strikes me as more popular than corned beef.

I’ve been at home, alone, for three weeks now.

I yelled at a bottle of salad dressing yesterday.
