The Miracle Food

We still have a dozen cans in inventory from our purchase last year, but the $5-off sale proved irresistible. Other reasons to throw a six-pack of Spam into the cart:

1) The "best by" date is three years hence, lengthier than any other canned or packaged food.

2) No can opener is necessary, ideal for emergency situations.

3) Spam now has less sodium....which means that one can consume two-thirds of a 12-oz. can without exceeding the recommended daily allowance. Yum.

4) Spam stays plump, moist, and doesn't spoil for many years. Who's to say that daily ingestion of its preservatives won't keep the wrinkles away?

5) Hawaii is the state with the highest Spam consumption (6 cans per person per year) and the highest longevity. Coincidence? I think not!
