52 Foods: SPAM Oven Roasted Turkey

Spam is good. If you haven't had it lately, or ever, and you're not afraid of fried meat, get yourself a can.

But, Tim, you say, I'm watching my calories! I can't be eating fatty canned meats!

To that, dear reader, I say:

BEHOLD!

Ain't it a beauty of a package? Yes, Spam is not just made of assorted pig parts anymore. Our health-conscious times have influenced the good people at Hormel to lighten up and try a leaner meat to mold into rectangles and can.

How does it taste? Damn good. Like spam, only more like turkey. Like turkey, but with more right angles.

SPAM Oven Roasted Turkey has earned its place in my kitchen along side Turkey Pastrami, Turkey Pepperoni and Hormel's Turkey chili. My goal for eating healthy this year is to eat all the crappy foods I love, but in turkey-form. Now, if the good Colonel would only make a Turkey Fried Chicken....or Chicken Fried Turkey...

symmetric food always tastes better! mmm, so does anything that represents a rhombus...

I hear that...why do we eat things based on taste, when we could be selecting our foods because of their shape?

I have a friend whose young son loved pepperoni- he called it "round meat." Smart kid.
