Feeding an Army
Posted by Von Battle
Growing up I loved watching the sitcoms of the 1970's. One of the top favorites that spanned well into the 80's was M*A*S*H. Some of the best scenes were in the mess hall before and after surgery where all the characters were sitting around talking about their day. The mess riot that ensued one episode was on the satelite tv from http://www.direct.tv/direct-tv-deals.html where Hawkeye stands up on the tables and shouts out in effect of, "We won't take it anymore!"
As I watched the show I had the hinkering for Spam, a wartime favorite. I used to use it as a garnish on top of my soft boiled eggs. The Spam would have to be seriously crispy tho and that's easy to do with time since the meat has its own amount of fat content inside. Sometimes if cut too thin the processed meat falls apart. This is fine as well since it will fry up just as nice, and actually crumbling it gets better coverage in a frying pan for cooking up more crisply.
This is great if you don't have any sausage or bacon handy and want an extra amount of flavoring for your breakfast. Tastes really good as a side as well, along with pancakes and maple syrup. The salty sweetness is a great combination.
