    Fun fact, in Japan they consider Spam delicious for some bizarre reason. Maybe it’s the culinary equivalent of tentacle porn, I don’t know. But one way to eat it is called Spam Musabi and it looks like sushi.

      But Spam is pretty good.

      Butter some bread to toast, cook up some bacon, fry the spam in that, toss on some cheddar cheese and you’ve a great sandwich. (I dislike egg but that’s probably a great addition too.) Pepper to taste.

      Ignore the multiple grams worth of salt you’ll be taking in. It’s worth it.

        Oh shit, I had no idea. I’ve never eaten it, I just remember seeing it in an article more than a decade ago and thought it was super weird

      It’s the salt, human bodies crave salt when they are low on it and human bodies will want to get salt from wherever they can

      Salt also improves flavour and spam has a shit ton of it
