The Teri-Jr-Jack is not compelling in looks, it's just tasty. I have not had it with Spam nor am I planning to. I will agree that it's mystery meat but the reality is that eating these days requires that one puts their trust/faith in the food supply chain. I certainly have and it ain't killed me yet.. Heck, I even trust Chinese food. You're just letting fear rule your life. As we all know, fear is an important motivation in 2019 America.
