    I prefer Treet, I should tray a low-salt variety. I like it for breakfast with eggs, too.

    If they make low salt for the single slice packets, my grocery store doesn't carry it, just the regular.

    As to the question of this post, yes, I eat SPAM-I usually make sandwiches out of it.

    I’m not on a low-salt diet or anything, I just find the regular version to be crazy too salty!!

    I was a trained cook in the Navy who even cooked for the officers & captain so I still go a little extra. All I know is there are NO leftovers in my house.

    Growing up we would go back & forth with Spam/Treat, usually what had a coupon or cheaper that week. Now because Wal-Mart sells the single slices, I go with that. Yeah its not cheaper but we do not waste as much either.

    Land sakes, 'Ep! That's fancy! We thought we were high society by grilling slices in BBQ sauce and slapping it on a steamed bun with lettuce and a thin crispy cornbread patty!

    For the record, we were a Treat household well into the nineties. Repeated Monty Python viewings made us "Spam-curious", and we ended up switching. You're right though, it is salty, more so than Treat was. It's just an occasional comfort food now.

    We usually have a can or two on the shelf but the only way I eat it is fried with eggs and toast.

    Spam: do you eat it?

    Growing up in the 70's and below middle class we would eat spam/treat more than I thought. It was a go to when we would eat salad. Then nothing for decades. Now that I live with a (very young) Asian boyfriend, I have discovered that Spam is now back on the grocery list (along with hotdogs). BF told me that in his family spam & hotdogs where their "red" meat. So I have not gotten used to eating this salty "ham" but refused to buy the big can. We get the single slices. Take tonight's dinner:

    Starting off with the Loma Linda Brand Hawaiian plant-based rice bowl with Spam slice pineapple ring sauteed with spray on coconut oil & orange pepper. With Gugen coconut milk pineapple flavor to drink.
