Bushwalk Australia

Love it or loathe it single serve Spam was a convenient non dehydrated source of meat on the Track,cannot find it in my local SM's is it still available ?

Just been advised by Hormel Foods that owing to poor sales they no longer import them to Australia

Tried spam for the first time the other day, wasn't too bad on the BBQ to be honest!
Forgive my lack of spam knowledge but aren't the normal Spam cams single serve?

Plumrose was still there when I shopped last week, tastes better but double the cost

Normal cans are a bit much for 1 person. They are about 2-3 serves dependig on how much you eat. I agree love a good bit of fried spam on toast with a dash of HP sauce..hmmm

Fair enough, was only thinking about my own stomach. I'm a BIG eater

Haha well i do admit to taking a full can on some trips just for me lol

This is the single serve.

They were really handy for those of us who could not eat a whole can at one sitting

I was thinking you meant the 125g tin; which is what I consider a single dinner serve

MD I think you mean 200g tin as they only do two, 340g or the 200g, a 125g tin would be almost as good as the 85g single serve pouch

You are correct
It's the tuna I get in 125g
My bad

Crikey! SPAM? Leg Ham, Corned Beef?, at least you can see that it's meat
Even then it all seems to be a deflating experience, nostalgia & memory being the highlight.
I'm sure you could freeze a portion, not like much will live on it

Had two nice thick fried slices of " Spam with Bacon " and a free range Tassie egg for breakfast this morning ,it was yummy
And after seeing how they get the meat for Canned Corn Beef I will no longer eat it

Grasshoppers!? bum first surely, not the eyes end?

In a stew/soup with Barley and some Veg so dont know whether it was bums or eyes and believe it or not I had in Bavaria over 55 years ago as for fat content of Spam 28.6g per 100g wonder how that compares with our Snags

Lips and A**holes in a can.
