Spam and macaroni salad = healthful meal?

Certainly, provided it is served with green salad or crudites on the
side and followed by fresh fruit, all of which I stock up on when power
outages are predicted.

Haven't you ever heard of pasta salad? This would appear to be another
variant.

Yes, I just never thought of it as healthful. Sorry to tease!

Well, a balanced diet requires a certain number of carbohydrates and
fats, as well as fiber and vitamins.

And don't forget, we also ingest an unspecified number of insects

AHEM!!! Recipe please! Remember, I live in hurricane territory and I
ALWAYS have a can of corned beef and a can of Spam on the emergency
shelf, plus I pride myself on being able to serve my family tasty,
healthful meals for at least a week without benefit of electricity.

Oh yes, anything that would squish thru holes in crackers was so much fun
to eat we didn't care how it tasted! Margarine on Saltines was my choice
(heaven knew how much sodium per bite)

Erm... I *still* do that with butter on Saltines! ;o)

And if I still ate cheese whiz I'd still be doing it too. LOL!

actually *tell* anyone that the meat is Spam -- LOLOL! I just say it is
tinned meat and let it go at that. If someone gets really insistent, I
say it is a type of tinned ham product -- that usually takes care of the
more curious.

Corned beef I still have and eat. And the family still enjoys rissles (sp).
I don't make them anymore, too time consuming, but I do love a rissle every
now and then.

LOL! Good luck on that--seriously! It would be so cool to know someone who
one something like that. I love watching the big bake-offs etc. on TV each
year. It's like a two-hour drool-fest. ;-))

You can buy potted meat in New Orleans. That's where I grew up and we
had it a lot.

Yes indeed. I buy both that and vienna sausages regularly, to donate to
the food pantry collection at church. It seems the homeless people are
very fond of those two, as well as peanut butter, because they can pop
open a can without tools, then spread the contents on bread or crackers
which they also acquired at the food pantry. Of course, those who spend
their days trudging the streets, carrying or pulling all their worldly
goods with them, do not have to worry about the high fat content, they
need all those calories. (And they don't worry about the preservatives,
most of them figure they are going to die young anyway.)

Which part of town are you from?
