confession

I secretly love spam (still). We ate it almost daily in the Marshall Islands and when we came home, we bought some for our "food storage". Did you know you can get like 8 cans in a pack at Costco!! When I replenish ours, I sheepishly pick up the pack and bury it between some fresh veggies or fruit. It's the same feeling you get when you let your toddler drink soda. You know you shouldn't and it makes you feel and look like like total trash, but you just can't help yourself. (and just so you don't worry, this is my 3rd time buying it since we have been home, so we've gone through like 12 cans in 6 years, that's only twice a year we dip into it. Not too shabby!!) We occasionally pop open a can to "rotate through" the stock, but we are totally kidding ourselves. That stuff expires like in 7 years from when it's made, and even then, it's probably fine to eat. We just occasionally need a little Spam. Spam stir fry, or Spam and pineapple "pizza" or just plain old Spam and rice with Sriracha sauce. Yum.
