I remember being surprised the first time I ever heard that Oreo wasn't the true originator of this type of cookie. Upon finding out the original is called Hydrox, I'd say that Oreo may even be getting the benefit of their rival having such a strange name (at least by modern standards). I mean, who'd eat a product called Hydrox over something called Oreo? With that said, this appears to be the result of some rather epic gaslighting.
It kept SO many GIs from going to sleep hungry. All you needed was a can of spam and a knife. Thousands of cans eaten in foxholes all over the world during WWII. It was sometimes the ONLY thing Marines had to eat in the Pacific battlefields. They couldn't cook on the front lines so it was a good source of energy and several days could be carried in a rucksack. It even came with its own can opener soldered to the bottom!
I blame Dominos. They created the whole "carryout/Delivery" pizza culture we have today and cheapened the pizza experience for me. It used to be like fine dining, like going to Red Lobster, maybe. People would dress up to go to Pizza Hut and have a hot, fresh pizza delivered to their table whilst they played a tune on the jukebox. or had a fresh garden salad from the salad bar. Now because of the hurry up mentality of Americans, they chose Dominos, and Pizza Hut tried to follow suit and fell flat on their face, because that was not their forte
this was the greatest form of entertainment i have everwatched, thank you hook. Send me a message if you want a video of my girlfriend squirting for the first time.
My grandparents raised 4 kids in the depression on a dairy farm in Idaho. They never wanted for anything. Grandmother canned everything. Including fresh trout. I remember looking at the jars. Oh my a trout sandwich was so good. But a fried spam sandwich was a reward. Spam tastes different now. But grandmother could make anything tastes good
I live in the UK and spam is not very well regarded. I love it!. I never got fed it as a child and only found it once I had left home . It's so versatile and I could not imagine not having it in my life.
My japanese hubby loves SPAM. BAKED. BUT I RARELY BUY IT FOR HIM BECAUSE I DONT EAT PROCESSED CANNED FOODS LIKE SPAM. I USUALLY BUY THE 25% low sodium bc hubby has high blood n cholesterol. I usually pairs his spam with fresh tomato onion garlic ginger salad.
