You're as childish as Joan. Vegans bring out the worst in meat eaters.
That's because you know they're morally superior to you. Sucks,
doesn't it?

May not be funny, but it's certainly a valid point.

Vegans should abstain from antibiotics too, even if it results in their
death.

There's all kinds of vegetarian products, look for morningstar. I think
they sell vegetarian meat.

I know. Most of them are science projects, though. I only know Lamyong

Animals produce milk to feed their young, as do humans. One weaned, the
milk production stops. Cows are forced to keep producing. I have no
idea if it causes pain, but it is not natural.

Thank you. I can't believe Joan and Jill thought cows would naturally
be walking around with exploding udders if people didn't milk them.

Spam isnt that bad eaten cold. I buy those big round wraps in packs
(because they can be frozen for a short time) and slice up spam into small
strips, add veg of my choice (cucumber, tomato, etc.) I have various sauces
that I brush on the wrap (ketchup, barbecue, garlic mayonnaise - one each
time, not mix them up) add the spam/veg filling, and just roll it up and cut
into two pieces.

It makes for a varied lunch; and the grandchildren love them.

However, I prefer it fried and occasionally fry it in batter to bring back
distant memories of school dinners.

I use red potatoes, par-cooked (in microwave), chopped into
little cubes then finished and browned in a large skillet along
with the chopped onions and spam.

If people didn't use milk, the cow would produce only enough for her
calf. Plus, there would be a lot fewer cows.

Pretty much the same thing for eggs.

Ask any lactating human mother separated from her baby.
Yes, "full to bursting" IS bloody painful.

I always liked it cold on white sandwich bread (Wonder), with mayo or
Miracle Whip. Haven't had it like that for years.

There ya go. Up until the other day, that's the only way I've
ever eaten it...just plain sliced on fresh white bread with mayo.
I would add iceberg lettuce if I had some but that's rare. It's
pretty darn good just like that along with some salty potato
chips.

You're quite welcome, ma'am. I'll bet your husband would like
that. It's good on it's own or can be a side like for a breakfast
- eggs, potatoes, sausage/bacon, toast.

Sheldon makes this and stirs in some eggs at the end for a full
meal. That would be good too.

I can't imagine it getting to the point where you would ask where is
Sheldon when you need him.

"Let me not to the contents of thy can"

Let me not to the contents of thy can
Add any condiments. Spam is not Spam
When altered by unbalanced minds,
Or flaked when the remover doth remove:
O no; it is the ever-fixèd pork,
Uncooked, ungarnished, and by Time undinted;
It is like gold to every plundering fork,
Whose worth's unknown, although its price be printed.
Spams not uncool, though rosy-hued and cheap
And from it oily trickles constant come;
Spam alters not, doth neither wake nor sleep,
Its worth cries out though it be deaf and dumb.
If this be error, and such claims a sham,
Neer have I writ, and neer man ate of Spam.

I like SPAM sandwiches , but with mayo it's too greazy, I have mine
with Guldens. Other than ham I can't think of any cold cuts I'll eat
with mayo, not even a cheese sandwich.... for a ham sandwich I have it
with mayo on one side mustard on the other

If I'm having mustard on any of these sandwiches (not often) I mix a bit of
it with the mayo before putting on the sandwich.

I always liked it cold on white sandwich bread (Wonder), with mayo or
Miracle Whip. Haven't had it like that for years.

You're quite welcome, ma'am. I'll bet your husband would like
that. It's good on it's own or can be a side like for a breakfast
- eggs, potatoes, sausage/bacon, toast.

Sheldon makes this and stirs in some eggs at the end for a full
meal. That would be good too.

I already fry it in soy which he loves. I will be making yours soon
Probably tomorrow

I have a recipe for spam with pineapple rice but I haven't made it yet.

If you do fancy it and try it before I do, please report back?

I use eggs, milk, and vanilla extract, (no sugar). Serve with butter and maple syrup.

If there's a good amount of lettuce and tomato I'll put some mayo on
the veggies half then mustard on the meat half.

That's all you need. The maple syrup provides plenty of sugar.

Ok, I've seen this before but had no idea what it was called. I could go
for the fruit, sans blackberries and the soggy bread.

I thought that "summer pudding" was called Charlotte Russe. Is that only with apples?

I can assure you that if you make it, you will be won over. You don't
have to include blackberries. The classic version is raspberries with
smaller amounts of redcurrants and blackcurrants. Soggy bread? NAH!!!!!

Hmmm. The fruit pudding I saw was baked. All I can tell is from those
pics is it's not something I've ever seen or tasted.

It's not baked. You line a pudding basin with bread. Then gently heat
the mix of raspberries, black and redcurrants with sugar until the juice
starts to exude. Put the fruit in the lined basin (but keep a 1/4cup of
the juice in reserve). Place a bread lid on the fruit followed by a
saucer and a weight, such as a big can of tomatoes and put it in the
fridge overnight. Next day unmold it and pour the reserved juice over
it. Serve with cream or vanilla ice-cream.
I use frozen but thawed fruits that release their juices easily
therefore minimising the heating. One should never cook the fruit to
maintain the fresh flavours.
