SPAM: the economic measure of our times

I like Spam, Vienna Sausages, and Potted meat. Hormel gets two

from me. If only my wife and children would eat it, I'd save a ton of money on food.

Try cutting up some Vienna Sausages and mixing it w/ some macaroni and cheese. MMmmmmmmm...

I like Spam, but can buy almost 3 cans of Treet for price of one can of Spam. Less fat and soduim content in Treet, and I'm guessing Treet is full of all the same "goodness" that can be found in a can of Spam!!! One can of Treet or Spam, 8 slices of bread, and you have 2, maybe three meals for a total cost under 3 dollars, depending on where you live.

Spam Trivia question (no cheating on the internet): By a wide margin, which state consumes the most Spam per capita??

Hawaii?

Didn't cheat...I'm pretty sure it's Hawaii...iirc they go nuts for the stuff there...and as far as the difference between Spam and Treet, Spam is made from real pieces of ham...Treet is made from mechanically separated meat...go look up the difference on google and you'll see why Spam outsells Treet...

Yeah, Hawaii is definitley the most Spam per capita. People flip for the stuff over here, you can even get Spam and rice off the breakfast menu at McDonalds here.

According to TastyIsland.com Spam is the best that is out there. My google search of Treet came up with:

As for me. I can't say that I am a big fan of the stuff, but it has been a while. I might have to try it again.
