I am really surprised this hasn't been posted. maybe it was on the first page on that dead video link but we won't know because there is no description. so without further ado Monty Python, spam.

Thanks for the taco technique! Smile

Good choice!
After you've assembled the SPAM 'n eggs burrito, have you tried frying it? Similar to TacoBell's breakfast crunchwrap.
Here's one of my lame but tastee experiments:

Fellow (edible) SPAM fans, please mark Sept 23 on your calendars...

Pumpkin Spice Spam

For real, not April Fool's.
It's a "limited edition" that will likely be recurring seasonally, if it's popular enough (and why wouldn't it be?!?).

It may only be available at their online store and Walmart, according to this:
https://www.brandeating.com/2019/08/new-...-2019.html

I'm thinking that might work well in muffins, or with pancakes. Smile


Last weekend, while working on my storage unit, I found a small box of canned meat, including Vienna sausages (blech!), and one regular sized can of my favorite flavor of SPAM: Teriyaki. Smile
Will probably feast upon it for the 9/11 to Nimda anniversaries week.

I love pumpkin pie and pumpkin bread and pumpkin ice cream and pumpkin milk shakes. but somehow pumpkin Spam does not sound appealing at all. I mean something's just shouldn't be mixed together and this is one of them in my book. highdesertranger

HDR, while I do agree conceptually, Science Demands that somebody Field Test this. I volunteer. Big Grin

I think this has potential with pancakes and real maple syrup.
I still have a couple of #2 cans of pancake mix, plus some maple syrup (privately harvested by a flake, so it may not be viable).

I wouldn't have thought Teriyaki SPAM was any good, but years ago I was travelling near the SPAM Museum (yes, it's a real thing) in Austin MN, so had to pop in for a look. It's free, and they have Free Samples. That day it was Teriyaki, and I was impressed enough that I bought a few cans (not there - I waited until I found a non-inflated price). Goes extremely well with eggs & veg. Aroma Therapy FTW. Smile
If you can't find it locally, Walmart's online store has it at the same price as regular SPAM.

well you're the guinea pig good luck and let us know what you think. I am kinda funny in that I don't mind Maple syrup getting on my bacon but I can't stand the maple syrup flavored bacon. it might have something to do with the real maple syrup vs the fake maple flavored sugar water. I only like the real stuff. highdesertranger

I don't know, Kaylee, spam just doesn't sound very good for an old man like me with the usual old man issues. 1369mg of sodium and 27g of fat with 10g saturated fat per 12oz can. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spam_(food...ional_data

I have a Winco 10oz can of chicken breast here, and it's only 320mg sodium and 1g fat. Plus 12oz spam in a can is $2.68, while 10oz can of chicken is about $2.74. Both have approx same amount of protein.

OTOH, they shipped 15,000,000 cans of spam per week to the soldiers in WW2. Probably 10 cans apiece per week. I assume they didn't cook it.
