Spam!

From Michelle, in the Slagroom...

Did you know that spam is speedily gaining popularity and is getting to be the new "in" thing?

It's absolutely true! But I don't mean the Internet variety, I mean the meat variety that comes in a can...

Spam. I love it! You can put it in a sandwich, you can casserole it, you can grill it, you can fry it. Was there ever such a versatile food?

Three cheers for the spam revival!

On a sadder note, bad news about Branston pickle (the kind Bridget Jones eats straight out of the jar--I love to eat it that way, too!).

There was a fire at the Branston pickle factory, which means that production has stopped for now, which means that Branston pickle stocks are running out, which is not good news for pickle-loving me!

Apparently, some canny people are auctioning off their Branston on ebay. Owkey, I'm heading over there RIGHT now...

Michelle! Sorry to hear about the pickles, sweetie. That's a bummer. But you're killing me with the Spam thing. I used to like Spam as a kid, but as an adult, I can't get over the whole canned meat thing. I can handle it with tuna, but anything else - chicken chunks, shrimp, etc. - skeeves me out. I may just have to hop on the Spamwagon, though. Seems versatile, easy and the kids might like it. Thanks for coming out of the Spam closet!

No Branston! What will we use with our Ploughman's. I love that stuff. Well, they should be back up and running fairly soon, don't you think???

ZaZa--I'm glad to report that Branston production is underway! Yeah!

Michelle, heading to the kitchen to make a cheese and Branston sandwich :-)
