Spam sales are up … yeah! We had Spam at the house just the other night. It tastes good … and good for you too. OK … maybe not … but it tastes good. Fox News just covered this … so why not?
AUSTIN, Minn., Nov. 16 (UPI) — One factory in the United States has been busy for months as the rest of the economy slows down — the Hormel Foods (NYSE:HRL) plant that makes Spam. The factory in Austin, Minn., has been operating two shifts a day seven days a week producing the canned lunch meat, The New York Times (NYSE:NYT) reported. Workers, with all the overtime they can handle, have been told the long hours are likely to continue indefinitely.
Now the fun. My guess … Martha has never had Spam. “Smells like cat food … but tasty stuff.”

It is great fried, tasting like sausage, but like sausage (or scrapple, if you hail from the South), you don't want to know what goes into it.
And now, for the young and the uninitiated, the immortal Monty Python Spam sketch:

Spam in the place where I live (ham and pork)

The tab is there to open the can
The can is there to hold in the spam
Oh, spam on the table at home (ham and pork)
Think about selection, are there different flavors now (let’s eat)
