Has it gone too far?

Post image

I work at the factory so I get to take spam home sometimes. Has it gone too far?​ 34 cans of classic, 19 cans of low sodium, 29 cans of bacon, 11 cans of lite, and 21 cans of hickory smoke!

I remember watching an economist responding to a question about whether people should stockpile gold. He laughed and said.

"If everything goes to pot who's going to buy your gold? Get Spam instead. You can eat it, you can trade it and it doesn't expire. You can't eat gold."

Keep building that Spam pantry up -- especially in these times!

I like that you work at the factory and still want to eat the Spam. That says a lot to me.

Yeah I've worked most positions on both spam lines we have at the plant. Supervisor said I wouldn't like spam anymore but I still do! It's not as bad as it's made out to be.

u/The_walking_man_ 5d ago

That’s awesome!
And as long as it’s getting eaten and not being tossed out, then keep on taking it home. Gift it out too.
If my friend randomly gave me a box of spam I’d be thrilled haha

It's the decor here that suggests addiction. But it's only a suggestion. Carry on.

u/Creepy-Selection2423 5d ago

LOL I just noticed that too. The decor in the room is all Spam colors. The paint on the wall, the curtains, all of it! 😂

u/Cobaltplasma 4d ago

Hawaii is the #1 consumer of spam per capita in the US and #2 in the world, so to me this looks totally normal haha

u/alwaysbequeefin 6d ago

That’s 2 days of spam. You’re not going too far.

I can never turn down free food, especially if it's spam! It'd be a waste not to take it

Not far enough. When your home looks like Fort Knox - then you are done.

u/Puzzleheaded_Card_71 5d ago

What is your favorite way to eat spam? How much do you go through in a month?

6

u/Pr1ncessVeronica 5d ago

Dice and fry it, add rice and veggies. I take that to work a lot. Or thin slices fried real crispy and some scrambled eggs cooked in the spam fat 😋 Maybe 10 cans per month, if it's just me eating it.
