Am I the only one here who puts slices of spam in the toaster?
Some may be running out of ideas suitable for philosophical debate
Not at all, I was reading Plato’s Seventh Epistle while doing this, even translated a portion (small portion).
Eccentricity is hardly caused by a drought of ideas. Besides, I lived in Hawaii for a while, people roast their spam, it tastes wonderful. Toaster happens to be spam shaped in its slot. Came out delicious… barely set the smoke alarm off. Everyone should try it.
Don’t eat spam. What are you living in a refugee camp or something?
These things apparently get quite complicated: straightdope.com/columns/rea … ly-in-spam
And that’s before we get to the part about dasein.
I’ve lived half starved out of a desert once and a can of Spam was always the option of last resort.
You’ve spent too much time amongst the locals in Hawaii Turd.
Dude… try it. It taste like nothing else when it is crispy brown and oozing. If I could teleport to Hawaii right now and back, I wouldn’t fuck with the beach, it be to get me some Spam from a breakfast buffet, or a Kalbi Beef and Sunny Side Up Egg plate lunch.
There are some pleasures you just don’t know.
I ate spam one month straight, often straight out of the can.
I just threw up in my mouth a little when I read that.
You need to go to Hawaii. Eat the local cuisine. I don’t mean the tourist areas, go down to the industrial areas down by the port, where plate lunches are made and served out of vehicles by old Asian guys, and tell them you want some spam, and eat that shit roasted, in a back alley surrounded by warehouses and 300 pound, heavily tattoed men.
I’ve eaten spam in ways even Hawaiians would tell me to pace myself. Gobble all that sweet ambrosia up.
I’ve eaten plenty of flame charred greasy mystery meat on a good number of islands, but none of it was spam. Man, that shit was invented when industrialists were trying to see just how close to dog food they could get before pissing off the masses. The powers that be at the time wanted the world population to eat cans of fake meat because it makes the rich richer and all that. It shouldn’t even exist anymore. It’s pretty much soilent green.
Naw, goes back farther than that, Napolean needed rations that were compact, resistant to decay, easily carried and diversifiable.
Universal conquest is at the heart of canned foods.
Beer is similarly canned.
I am halfway through eating a can right now, and found a pubic hair inside. Don’t know if it came from me, as I’m naked right now, or someone working in the factory.
Man you gotta trim the hedges. When you’re not sure if there’s one of your own pubes in your spam, it’s time. Point is, whenever they first started trying to control the world and placate the masses for as cheap as possible, spam is an iconic product that exemplifies just that idea. You should be eating a rotisserie chicken or something.
They don’t sell rotissery chicken this late. I work at night, and the shit is gone.
And if I shaved my pubes, it would look weird, as the rest of me is hairy too. I’m like a cat, hair all over.
Aw man. That’s fucked up. Doesn’t a wal mart deli have at least 1 cold chicken leftover from the daytime sitting back there amongst the potato salad and shit?
No. Once is a while, I will find a hard, yellowed, $5 plain cheese pizza sitting in a warming over for half the day… it is a rareity.
Sometimes, I just become desperate, and buy Sam Clubs Blue Cheese Sausages, and asparagus, and throw them into a stacked steamer, and then sprinkle lemon and butter on the asparagus, and toast some 12 grain toast, or garlic mashed potatoes… and drink some Walmart Welches Black Berry Juice and cry over the miserable state of my life…
But tonight I was like fuck it, I’m going for the good stuff, and went to a store called Dollar General, and got a whole can of Spam Original, and a bottle of V8 juice, and finished watching season 3 of strike back.
Cat keeps begging for spam… I can’t finish it, he hears the can, gets all excited. I’ve mapped a little… don’t know if he snuck his head in the can. I opened it a few hours ago. Thinking about finishing it. I’m just worried, a fly flew into my room earlier, it might of been in my food, when I wasn’t looking, making babies. They got this thing, s tube in their mouth, shoots vomit on food, and they suck it all back up. They do little fly dances shitting and vomiting.
Gonna eat it. Its too dark to check, gonna take it all on faith. Wish me luck.
When everything is closed twenty four hour gas stations are your friend concerning food. I’ll take a cheap four dollar hot sandwich any day over the week compared with that of Spam.
Nope, we have them shut up, can only purchase gas at night. Remember, both my town and state is only 3 miles wide here, we get a lot of interstate crime, both drug smugglers from Chicago straight out of gangland and your crackheads just over the border thinking their local police won’t figure a crime in another state, ten miles away, could possibly of been done by a local resident in Pa or Oh.
I’m looking forward to starting tis business in Pa. I’m tired of scratching at locked store windows at night dying to eat.
Nothing wrong with Spam… and don’t lie, I recall your Spam eating days. You used to hoard it. Now your all like, upper class and sophisticated, trying to be like “Oh, I never ate that shit, it’s beneath me”.
Fuck you you lying piece of shit. Spam was some damn good, delicious shit then, and it remains so now. Nothing has changed. I liked Spam before Hawaii, but I gotta say, the Hawaiians really know what they are doing. All food in Hawaii is more expensive, except the Spam… it’s cheaper there… the Hawaiians really know how to prepare it. It comes off tasting gourmet, I would honestly consider skipping over a fine steak for a Spam and Sliced Sausage buffet. Nice sunny side egg, kalbu need, teriyaki grilled chicken, on shredded lettuce. I can’t stand the taste or look of macaroni salad on the mainland, but in Hawaii that shit is so good.
I want it now dammit! NOWWWW!
If I was in a total survival situation, yes, I would eat Spam as a last resort. The only thing worse than regular Spam is turkey Spam. I tried eating that one time and I vomitted because it was so nasty.
That sucks about your state with everything closing early. Glad I’m not over there. I’m a insomniac mushroom person where I like twenty four hour convenience stores.
That is my favorite Hawaiian dish, but needs the Spam. Kalbi Beef… you can’t get that cut of ribs in the mainland unless you buy the whole cow, pisses me off.
Teriyaki chicken, grilled. I would soak the white rice in soy sauce, or add mayonaise and mustard to it.
Thats what the Atkins diet looks like in Hawaii. Not joking, it’s literally advertised like that on menus.
Only thing I like better is New Zealand Lamb Ribs, in Alaska. Has to be New Zealand, not the cheap Aussie shit. In New Zealand, they tenderize their sheep, by fucking them on the edge of a cliff.
I worked in a supermarket long ago, used to give samples of Kalbi Beef, $50 bucks a pound… I ate as much as possible… not as good as roasted spam.
That dish surprisingly looks good to eat. I thought you were eating Spam by itself or something.
My favorite meat dishes are usually comprised of lamb or goat within Greek cuisine.
