^ I LOVE Spam too! I don't keep it around all the time, but I buy it when it's on sale. I just made Spam fried rice for dinner tonight!Ramen Instant noodles (for me only, DH loathe these)
SPAM (okay, I know , but I'm Asian and I grew up on this - Dh is caucasian and will ABSOLUTELY not touch it nonetheless eat it!) It's great cut up and fried and to eat it with bread.
Yum, SPAM in fried rice ......I used to get the big cans of SPAM but half of it goes to waste. Good thing they came out with 1/2 size cans now and those are the ones I buy. I have about 3 cans w/c will last me 1 year or so.^ I LOVE Spam too! I don't keep it around all the time, but I buy it when it's on sale. I just made Spam fried rice for dinner tonight!
And I love ramen-- I always have it in my pantry. My mom always tries to get me to eat the "good" kind with stuff like fish flakes and seaweed in it, but I like the Top Ramen 10 cent kind in Oriental flavor :shame:
