I can remember, once or twice as a kid, eating grilled Spam for
breakfast. Maybe it was a cheap substitute for bacon some week when the paycheck wasn't quite stretching enough..... Might actually be good some morning next summer out on the boat. Yeah, swinging at anchor, sun coming up, gulls scrawing, pilothouse door ajar to let a cool, salt-scented breeze into the cabin and a slice of Spam sizzling next to a farm fresh egg in the griddle. All I need now is a can of Spam, and about a 5 month advance in the calendar. :-) |

During WWII it was a prime staple for GI's and was just about the only meat available in Hawaii during the war. After the war, it remained popular among the Hawaiians. Some of the most expensive and the cheapest restaurants in Hawaii, include at least one dish made of SPAM. |

An alternative, also available in the canned meat section, is canned corned beef. Mixed with some lemon juice, mayo. chopped onions, and pepper (as much as you like), this makes a great sandwich also. -- ***** Have a super day! ***** John H |
