re: I had Spam for the first time in 40+ years

I fried some a while back for the first time in a long time myself.

Seemed more mushy in the middle after frying than it used to. I didn't cut them too thick I don't think. Wondering if they changed the texture at all.

As someone else said, rather have fried bologna myself. I had Spam and Treat growing up. But had a lot of fried bologna sandwiches.

Fried Spam second only to a thick slick of fried bologna for an artery clogging indulgence.

It's pretty much the same as a hot dog isn't it?

A hot dog with crappy ingredients, yes.

That Spam musubi in Hawaii sure was tasty

Spam musubi is damned good. There's a poke place down the street from us that sells it (it's the only poke place in my general area that sells this item)

So all hot dogs.

No.

12 Ways to Eat Spam

When only the best will do (Hall of fame)

I never developed a taste for Spam, and my mom tried to get me to eat it more times than I care to think about over the years, and I'd always pass after my first attempt at it.

To me, it's like potted meat, hot dogs and Vienna sausages-----mystery meat, although I could eat the first three from time to time.

Potted meat on crackers with mustard and Vienna sausages right out the can were a once in a while snack for me.

As for hot dogs, I may eat some about 3 times a year and only with chili, mustard and relish on them.
