    Speaking of cooked luncheon meat, I remember hearing a Country song
    many years ago describing a jailhouse meal of fried baloney. And then
    I found out, when friends moved to Canada that fried baloney with
    maple syrup was popular up there in the Frozen North. It's an
    interesting world....

    D.M.

    When I was a kid and my Dad made us Sunday breakfast, it was likely to be
    fried Spam and eggs or fried baloney and eggs. Although the baloney was from
    the butcher and sliced thick, like 3/8" or so. Or fried cornbread (in bacon
    grease) with buttermilk poured on it. Jeeze Louise, no wonder I battle high
    cholesterol.

    How do you prepare luncheon meat for eating. I am talking about Hormel's
    Spam that you buy at the grocery.

    What I do normally is have a frying pan on low heat. Slice the spam bar
    into thin slices and toss it in the frying pan to heat it up to almost a
    brownish colour.

    How do you normally eat this thing? Can it be eaten raw right out of the
    rectangular can?

    Yeah, I slice it up right from the can and slap it between slices of
    bread with plenty of mayo and yellow mustard. American classic.

    I like it fried (especially with pancakes and syrup), but it is fully
    cooked already right from the can.

    I guess by "luncheon meat" you mean *spiced ham*. I happen to like
    Hormel's Spam but I don't think it qualifies as spiced ham. I happen
    like Boar's Head "spiced ham" better, but it costs 2.5 times more. My
    personal preference is not to heat either of them, I like both cold,
    thinly sliced in a sandwich... in fact just today I went to Sam's Club
    and bought four 4 packs (16 cans) of Hormel Spam... how many of yoose
    can boast they've more than a dozen cans of Spam in their larder... how
    many would have the balls to admit it.

    I always knew you were a cheap son of a [censored] because of your
    pasta-filling attitude towards invited guests but your pride in being
    that cheap son of [censored] even surprises me since it would seem you horde
    that canned [censored] like it was gold.

    Ahhh, Spam. A weakness born in my childhood that never left me. Even
    the jokes about Spam offend me. My mom always fried it in butter,
    then served it on whole wheat toast with melted cheese and mustard or
    mayonaise, according to preference. Food of the gods. As a side
    note, she also served something she called "cloverleaf ham" on a
    regular basis. Imagine the trauma when, as an adult, she confessed to
    me that it was bologna cut 4 times in the shape of a Celtic cross to
    keep it from curling. As a final off-topic side note: My first
    introduction to "polenta" was as a grade-school boy when my mom served
    a never-ending stream of "fried mush" for several weeks. To me, the
    stuff tasted like fried popcorn and I loved it. A few years ago, I
    asked her exactly how she made it. Her response was "why would you
    want to eat that [censored]? We only had it because your dad was on strike
    for 2 months, and it was all we could afford". I fix "fried mush"
    quite often, to this day.

    I never buy more than one of the 4 packs at a time, so the most I have on
    hand at once is 4 or less.
    I like it grilled over a hot charcoal fire.

    I ate balogna that way as a youth in San Diego (Escondido) --- except I ate
    it with Log Cabin syrup which was cheaper or dark Karo syrup which was
    cheaper still. I still fry bologna now and then but in olive oil and no
    syrup.

    I am amused that I am eating Spam for dinner tonight. Your post is certainly
    timely. I will cut the block in half to make 2 "fillets". One slice I will
    eat in a couple of days. The other slice I will fry until slightly browned
    and heated through. I will eat it with assorted vegetables and boiled new
    potatoes dripping in butter. Pears will follow. Thus will my supper be
    actualized but its promise unfulfilled until I complete it with strong
    coffee and 1/2 lb. of See's Chocolates.
