Spam for breakfast
 
I can remember, once or twice as a kid, eating grilled Spam for
breakfast.
Maybe it was a cheap substitute for bacon some week when the paycheck
wasn't quite stretching enough.....

Might actually be good some morning next summer out on the boat. Yeah,
swinging at anchor, sun coming up, gulls scrawing, pilothouse door
ajar to let a cool, salt-scented breeze into the cabin and a slice of
Spam sizzling next to a farm fresh egg in the griddle. All I need now
is a can of Spam, and about a 5 month advance in the calendar. :-)

Chuck,
It was my fathers favorite breakfast meat, and is the number one meat
sold in Hawaii, both for the same reason. During WWII it was a prime
staple for GI's and was just about the only meat available in Hawaii
during the war. After the war, it remained popular among the Hawaiians.

Some of the most expensive and the cheapest restaurants in Hawaii,
include at least one dish made of SPAM.

Fried Spam and egg sandwiches, with some mayo and hot sauce (Franks or
equivalent), simply can't be beat.

An alternative, also available in the canned meat section, is canned corned
beef. Mixed with some lemon juice, mayo. chopped onions, and pepper (as
much as you like), this makes a great sandwich also.

Good lord man - have you no shame?

SPAM sucks. I can't tell you how much it sucks.

I hate SPAM.

However, for your amusement:

This is kind of amusing - just watch it for a while.

That's about right. If you're really into it, you could just use
peppercorns.

You can get Spam at any Hawaiian BBQ here in the west. Plus other nasty
meat cuts.
