*enhances your prep stash*
Not a big fan of added bacon flavoring, for the most part, I'd probably go for just regular spam.
>>65642178I like it better and it's dramatically lower sodium than normal spam (lower than the low sodium spam even) so it's easier to use.But being lower in sodium effects it's keeping so it has a lower shelf life like the other flavored spams do vs classic spam. So not so great for stockpiling but it's the most versatile of the flavors they still make.RIP to black pepper, and garlic though. Taken in the pandemic.Now those were a great fry up.
>>65642242Wrong image, or... ?
>>65642245No, but have an image of the fallen if you want.This stuff rocked fried with potatoes
They did give us one good new flavor but they're taking it away again. It made a mean musubi.Way better than the teriyaki or the shitty gook bbq one for it
>>65642242>>65642248Perhaps I'm dumb, but can you not just mix garlic in when you cook it?
>>65642270>shitty gook bbqJesus what the fuck were they thinking with that. Must have been a bunch of pretentious white urbanites who thought it tasted good in the lab. I'll eat anything but there is something wrong with the flavor. My Korean mom and all her Korean friends do not like it at all and they love SPAM. I have a bunch of cans in my pantry because they essentially offloaded them on to me because I'll eat just about any canned meat, but still.
>>65643164Yeah, and just add sugar to the tea, it's just the same as sweet tea. Do you not comprehend what madness you're speaking?
>>65643164You can, and I do but the garlic spam was impregnated with garlic goodness. In the fry up it spread the garlic grease to everything. You could then add more garlic
I love spam, but it's way cheaper for me to just buy fresh pork butt and salt it myself. I will never understand cheap canned foods costing more than fresh.
>>65642178>omega 3's your path
Speaking of all of this I plan on spending a week innawoods with two 3-4 day treks on foot to and from home. Going to get spam and deenz, but has anyone tried this cheap canned clams and oysters? I see them at $1.50/can at the local Wal-Mart.
>>65643214Delicious but it's so expensive if you're not buying the absolute bargain basement. It's annoying as well how several very different fishes are all sold as sardines.
>>65642178>the shittiest, lowest quality meat product possibleThere is a whole world of canned meat out there and spam ranks right at the fucking bottom.
>>65643208lolnoYou're ridiculous. It costs $3.10 per can and the store brand is like $2. Always, no deals or sales or regional bullshit for you to cite. You aren't getting 1 pound of finished product for $2.60 in materials, even though your NEET time and your mother's counter and frige space is utterly worthless because obviously you aren't employed or competent proposing something so ludicrous.
>>65643228Smoked oysters have been awful for years. They used to be decent but now they're all from china and taste like gritty heavy metal poisoning.Clams I've never eaten as a snack, only used in other foods so I can't really say.The only canned seafoods worth it aa snacks from your average supermarkets are sardines, tuna, mackrel, salmon, sprats and herring. So there's still plenty to choose from.As a random recommendation the seasoned yellowfin in oil several brands have is slept on. afaik mercury wise it sits above skipjack and below albacore in mercury content so just don't lean too heavily on it.
>>65643238damn son you haven't tried ethnic 3rd world canned meat products if you think spam is the worst
>>65643228Shartmart usually has the family size pouches of tuna which are goodSome stores have pouches of pot roast and stuff also. That with one of the knorr pasta sides is pretty nice after a day of hiking, plus the pouches are way eaiser to pack out than cans
>>65642178Too expensive for what it's supposed to be.
>>65643205Based garlic enjoyer.
>>65642178My problem is these pull tab lids on these, no way they hold up as long
>>65643261>extra virginWhat does that mean?
>>65643378
>>65643268Hell, it's far from the worst canned meat in the first world.See: most other luncheon loaf like treet or generic and pic related spongy bullshit
>>65643268>you haven't tried ethnic 3rd world canned meat productsWell obviously I'm not counting Russian mystery meat (tm) or anything coming out of China. Or god help me I never even thought about canned meat being produced there and possibly making its way over here, India.But in the ranking of first world, canned meat products spam is solidly in F tier.
>>65643378It basically means it's pure olive oil from just squeezing the olives and bottling the liquid that's comes out, zero heating or filtering
>>65643203You are fucking retarded. You add sugar to hot tea to make it swear you dumb fuck. And anything other than the orginal spam is fucking gay. Like you, dumb california faggot
>>65643261This is good to know was looking at some of the Geisha ones which are either Chinese or Korean.
>>65643432Everything Geisha sells is chinese or from SEA iirc. Gross stuff
>>65643260$1.99/lb for pork butt another $0.16 of salt per lb of pork butt. Cube it, pack it with salt in a half gallon mason jar, cover with brine. It's not spam, but it cooks up like it, spam is mostly potato flour anyway.
>>65643410That's what I'm saying you dumb fucking porch monkey, only yankoids and coasties think iced tea that's had sugar added later is the same as sweet tea that has the sugar added when it's being made
>>65643364thank you wario
>>65643410>just pour coffee grounds straight into hot water, bro
>>65643463>spam is mostly potato flour anyway.>5 kcal carbohydrate in 180kcal serving>”mostly flour”Retard.
>>65642178I used to eat this all the time with scrambled eggs and rice when I was a mere lad.t. gook.
>>65643261Sprats ftw
>>65643463Cool so your cherrypicked pork butt alone (which you are ignoring is 30-40% bone and fat by weight) already costs as much as a tin of Walmart spam even before your worthless time, vessels, heating and space are consumed.You have never made salt pork in your life faggot. Shut up and stop replying. Also weapons.
>>65643523You should try pork brains in your eggs.
>>65643457They have a variety of oysters from Korea. Presumably Worst Korea, but I'm not so sure now kek.
>>65642178I have a friend who'll eat tinned anything; oysters, spam, some kind of italian peppers in oil, just all of it.I gave him some of this and he loved it.I put this next to a version I made myself and immediately realized it's not ham or bacon which is the canned version's real problem. You'll need back bacon and ground cheek meat, brined and smoked to get close.
>>65643465Dear Southron Faggot;Your Sweet Tea is simply primitive rendered sucrose. Modern H. Sapiens can use simple sugar and get the same thing.s. Industrial North American
>>65643647I refuse to take any input on taste from a northener while Cincinnati remains unpunished for their sin against food that is skyline chili. Along with all the other culinary crimes the midwest has committed like Chicago deep dish pizza (Detroit style is fine though)
I love spam but it's not great to eat more than on rare occasions (obviously doesn't apply for shtf) so it's a guilty pleasure for me. I have a bunch of canned deenz and mackerel plus this stuff - canned beef, delicious but kind of pricey. Bust one open every couple months when I'm too lazy to cook.
>>65643726Shelf life?
>>656437542 minutes
>>65642178Spam is fucking vile and if you eat it i have 0 doubt that you also eat loudly with you mouth open and breath loudly but arent aware how loud you breath
>>65643757Not great, not terrible
>>65643759Just say they're Asian, gosh
I heard historically bacon used to be room-temperature-stable like country ham but the usda banned bacon with the amount of nitrates and nitrites or whatever to do that
>>65643378Its made only by greek and italian virgin women. This is a rapidly dwindling group of women, every year more and more arent virgins so expect prices to skyrocket soon
>>65643759Just say youre autistic bro
>>65643754Officially, 5 years. Unofficially, 10+
>>65642178>canned goyslopI shiggy diggy
>>65643335Dumping a can of tuna into a bowl of lipton (knorr) broccoli&chicken noodles was always one of my favorite quick meals, especially in the winter.
>>65642178the walmart kind is much better. i use it for the base sauce when i make black beans.
>>65643385> I'm not counting Russian mystery meat (tm)kek my international supermarket has Russian tushonka canned meat and I actually like it, it tastes good
>>65643385You're a faggot for not mentioning any of the ones that are allegedly better.
>>65643228I got canned oysters once and they were the worst thing I have ever put in my mouth. Gritty and rotten tasting, zero redeeming qualities. I would starve to death in a room full of cans of that trash.
>>65643697>>65643647Both of you faggots suck lol
>>65643378It means it tastes bitter
I'm all about the beanz and deenz.
>>65643759The only people who eat spam and loudly with their mouths open are old (60+) asian men
>>65643385>over here, India.>But in the ranking of first worldYou know nothing of the first world, poo man
>>65643378It's not rapeseed oil.
>>65643556You seem very upset and misinformed about buying pork. $1.99/lb for picnic shoulder is just everyday grocery store price, if I wanted to cherry pick I'd go off price per pound of buying a half hog locally. Spam costs too much for what it is.
>>65643762Well, people debate on nitrates and all that, but at THOSE levels, it was probably for the better. If you want shelf-stable pork, you still have good old fashioned Salt Pork, where you just salt the everloving Christ out of a cut of pork to preserve it.You then have to plop it in a bath of water to soak out all that excess salt before you eat it (and ideally, cook it somehow after), but until you do, that lump of flesh will HOLD. I guess you could then also reclaim the salt after soaking it out.
>>65643773Spam ain't fine dining and nobody pretends that it is. As mediocre/subpar as this kind of food is, it's meat and fat, and it's very cheap and very shelf stable, made a lot of sense for G.Is at war, or as foreign aid.Or for people who fell on hard times or just as a long term reserve. Prepper food isn't gourmet, that's not the point.
>>65643697Cincinnati is Confederate-adjacent by cultural disposition.I contend.
>>65644090Try telling that to weebs who are addicted to Spam Musubi.
>>65644080MOM THIS IS THE FUCKING THIRD TIME YOU SAVED THE WATER AND RECRYSTALIZED THE SALT YOU CHEAP BITCH WHY DIDN'T YOU GO TO COLLEGE, I'M NOT EATING THAT
>>65642212>land of the rising spamMmmm.
>>65644149https://files.catbox.moe/bwfipo.webm
>>65643214Also Mercury.>>65643238We don't speak war crimes here, Hans.
>>65644173>Mercury
>>65643642Hmm, fish cokc.
>>65643378It's like me but olive oil
>>65644173This nigga doesn't understand bioaccumulation
>>65643364thank you wario!
>>65643865I'm not that guy, your reading comprehension is poor. > never even thought about canned meat being produced there and possibly making its way over hereRead that line again. It's a little awkward, but he's implying Jeetlandian canned meat somehow making it to the US, which would be very strange.
>>65642178Behold, the final solution.>>65643726This nigger gets it.Luncheon ham works okay when you can infuse flavour to mask how shit it tastes, its literally the bologna of canned meats, but canned beef is fine without such drastic measures.Canned fish as a side stack for occasional consumption, for the omegas and iodine.
>>65644222I've had plenty of corned beef in those trapezoidal cans.Mostly because I bought a shitload on sale in the lead up to the chink flu.It's inferior to spam, at least to real spam.Probably better than the ultra cheap chicken/pork/turkey/whatever mystery meal luncheon loafs but not actual spam.I have had a better corned beef that came chunked that was in a large rounded can.That was better than spam but it was even more retardedly expensive. It had an actual meaty texture vs the mush from Libby's and the like
>>65643759You're supposed to cut thin ( half to 1/3rd the thickness of your cutting board ) and fry it in the pan until it's crispy and lightly charred. Jalapeño spam is great for this.
>>65644266What kind of chintsy cheapo cutting board do you have?
>>65643884Can you use this for sex or what?
>>65644189
>>65644222I like corned beef every now and then. You can either fry it in a pan until it's crispy, or you can put it in a soup where it pretty much dissolves into a meat particulate. It's not bad in soup, but there's little white pits in it that gross me out. Good if you want to be /k/ about it and make trench stew though.>>65643834Never had this, but iirc you're supposed to fry it in the fat and it's supposed to not be bad. >>65643726This stuff is good but yeah it's pricey. Cheaper than fresh beef but not by much. I like to use it for beef and noodles with gravy and mashed potatoes, or in soups instead of corned beef. >>65643383These are okay but inferior to a proper baked ham.>>65643261>>65643214>The only canned seafoods worth it aa snacks from your average supermarkets are sardines, tuna, mackrel, salmon, sprats and herring. So there's still plenty to choose from.Pic related is my all time favorite canned fish. I like to dump the whole can brine and all over a bowl of sticky Asian rice for breakfast with a little bit of sweet onions sauce and some diced green onion. That's legit one of my favorite comfort foods. >>65642270>>65642248>>65642212>>65642178Name brand SPAM is good. I usually go for the SPAM Lite that's lower in sodium. Not something I eat every day, maybe once a month, but it's good to have a few cans in the pantry for easy dinners. A few things I like to do with it:>obviously you cut it thin, fry it, and have it on a sandwhich>also not bad cut slightly thicker, fried to a light char, and eaten like a fillet >I like to cube it up and braise it in mix it stir fry sauce with frozen vegetables and sticky Asian rice
>>65644375>Name brand SPAM is good. I usually go for the SPAM Lite that's lower in sodium. Not something I eat every day, maybe once a month, Like me last night.>but it's good to have a few cans in the pantry for easy dinners. A few things I like to do with it:Stop copying me!
>>65644375Word to the wise, the bacon spam is actually lower in sodium than the lite and the low sodium one.It's also just regular spam pork shoulder+ham trimmings with bacon trimmings added while both lite and low sodium are basically treet mystery meat because they add mech. chicken to the mix. Some of the flavored spam is also lower than the low sodium spam (not the Asian ones though I think) but it's all lower sodium than the real McCoy.Also I was talking about that brand of canned ham in specific, bristol. Has this really unpleasant spongy texture.DAK and celebrity are fine, as canned ham goes, tho
>spam thread
I like spam. It's nostalgic. Like canned clam chowder.
I lost my taste for spam. Still love Dinty Moore though. Enough black pepper, tobacco sauce and maybe even an over easy egg on it and you have gourmet eating
>>65644443>tobaccotobasco
>>65643189Alot of people add teri to spam for a sugar glaze, not crazy that they made one with teri and hotsauce
>>65644443>>65644451>he doesn't get the Tomacco flavor
>>65644443That's because you're doing spam wrong, like some sort of fat island wog probably.You fry that shit in beer batter, maybe stick a slice of cheese on it first.
>>65644536Or maybe I just don't like it anymore. Live with it, anon.
>>65644520I've been looking to no avail
>>65643261>but now they're all from chinaTrader Joe's are from Chile. They're fine. Not amazing, but fine, and probably cancer free.
>>65644536Fat island wogs love deep fried spam tho.They like spam in every considerable orientation.And they're not wrong
>>65643834Naturally, all the good stuff gets sold abroad and the actual Russians are left with the scraps.
>>65644536>>65644403Funilly enough >>65644375 my wife used to refuse to eat SPAM for years until she got pregnant. Then one day I'd fried some up to make a sandwich and when I walked by her desk she practically floated out of her chair whiffing the air like out of an old Loony Toons cartoon. Now she's the one who puts it on the grocery list.
>>65644375Try corned beef stewed with a can of pork and beans and some chopped browned onions. Put it on sticky white rice, that shit is life changing kind of amazing.>>65644403Lowest sodium Spam is actually the Tocino flavor at 420 milligrams. Over 50% reduction from standard Spam, and a good 100 milligrams less than even Bacon Spam. That said the overall best for you is still Spam Lite because of the 50% fat reduction, lowest they make. Honestly, the Tocino Spam doesn't taste much like actual Tocino, but it's what it is.
>>65642178Spam is underrated. But, what are some other good choices in canned/ potted meats?
>>65643385>Or god help me I never even thought about canned meat being produced there and possibly making its way over here, India.This is a food thread anon, let's not be going around spouting gross shit like that ok?
>>65644536This is fucking gay af
>>65644600Treet is like Spam but finer, and I think it's got chicken blended in. It makes good sandwiches. Libby's corned beef is also a good choice. I actually prefer it to Spam when camping, I think it goes better with eggs.
>>65642178mmm heart disease
>>65644702I like Libbys too, but once you open the can you kind of have to use the entire thing or it'll dry out. With Spam, I can cut a few slices at a time, slide it back in, and cover the top and it'll be good for at least a couple weeks.
>>65644673Get a load of Captain Genetic Factors and his shitty ancestry over here.
>>65644375Corned beef sandwiches with sauerkraut, Swiss and mustard n pickles is god tier
