    The better question is whether you like spam or not? I love it.

      Spam is Christmas for danimal. Growing up, he'd eat fried Spam, a poached egg with Hollandaise sauce on an English muffin on Christmas morning. It's a tradition he won't break.
      What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

        I can't believe no one has brought this up yet.

              Then why don't I see you vote No in the poll? You can talk the talk but can't walk the walk.

                Because I don't want to out myself as an elitist. It's an open poll!

                  This is the most pretentious thread ever on cuf, by a long ways.

                    I see you have voted no.

                    I take back what I said earlier. Apologies.

                      I've never had the opportunity. Well, I should say I have always had better options. My parents grew up on Spam and both hate it. It was never in our house growing up. My wife's family ate it occasionally too and she isn't a fan of it. I wouldn't be opposed to trying it though.

                        When my wife was making commercials for an ad agency Hormel was one of their clients. She made several Spam commercials. The Hormel people had a good sense of humor about Spam, she says, and the ads were pretty clever (i.e., tongue in cheek) too.

                        She did not make this one (and says she wouldn't have - it's pretty bad), but it gives you an idea of Hormel's approach back then:

                        At http://www.spam.com/ - - you'll find zillions of recipes and other Spam resources. I don't recall the last time I ate Spam but it is a happy memory.

                          My Dad would fry it up and put a brown sugar coating on top of it and it spite of the sugar topping I still didn't like it. I'm pretty sure my kids have no idea what Spam is.

                              Sounds yummy. A low brow eggs benedict. Think I'll try this.

                                I didn't grow up eating spam but I love spam musubi or spam fried rice. I don't just like it plain very much. Our kids LOVE it though. Must be the Hawaiian heritage ... Surfah made sure they ate it young.
