We're Jerseying the Food & Drink forum.

As I wrote in 2015 as House4kids - as a kid we had fried Spam, fried baloney - but don't eat it anymore.

Or VY EENIE. But we always called them "Vienna" as in the city. I wonder why they're called that?

Yes, this is how I understand Spam. It has been said that all the parts of animals that you wouldn't want to eat are in there. Of course I found this out after eating Spam-like substances and vienna sausage for a number of years. I don't have a reference source, though.

Sorry to disappoint, but Spam's made with ham and pork shoulder. If you want the odd parts, you'll need to buy head cheese, souse, or scrapple. I've seen the odd hog's hair in slices of head cheese.

I like it - but gave up eating it - way too much sodium...

GOOD TIMES!

So every once in awhile, I buy a can of Vienna sausages and salute my dad.

Good taste Do you like the sauced versions ? BBQ and/or Spicy/Hot?

We don't eat it often, but sometimes crave it diced, fried crispy and mixed with scrambled eggs. Yum.

Thanks, but no thanks. This is a food I simply don’t need to eat.

I ate fried spam sandwiches as a child in the midwest. Every now and then these days my wife'll make me some spam musubi to bring to work to eat. We bought a cheap plastic musubi mold and do a nori wrap with rice, fried egg, and fried spam (low-sodium or sometimes the hot-and-spicy variety). I generally put a dab of a Polynesian sauce on the top while I eat them.
