So…. about a year ago the big joke in my office (ok, one of them) was that we should all stock up on Spam for the zombie apocalypse. Spam…. hmmm…. isn’t that from a Hawaiian pig? You guessed it. I’ve NEVER had Spam before. My next shopping trip I made a point of adding Spam to my list…. and joy of joys when I found not only Spam, but Hot & Spicy Spam and Jalapeno Spam!
Ok… now what to do with it. My Aunt likes Spam sammiches… but I’m not a big fan of bread lately. How about fried rice? Ummmm, maybe?
Here we go, let’s hit the basket and start!
