Monty Python Gets "Spammed!"

[PeppeRaskell1]

Not the computer junk mail (though they probably get a lot of that on their website, if they had one--do they?), but the stuff that comes in cans and you make Spam, egg, sausage and Spam, Spam, egg, bacon and Spam, Spam, egg, cheese, bagel, and Spam (this is how I make it), and Spam, egg, sausage, bacon, cheese, sausage and Spam, Spam, Spam...you know the drill, if you've seen Monty Python's Flying Circus on BBCA.)

Anyway, at the Shop-Rite where I work, Spam is on sale this week at 3 for $5.00. One of the featured varieties is something called "Golden Honey Grail Spam--Wicked-Awesome Spamalot Collector's Edition." (Spam collectors, take note! ), obviously inspired by the forthcoming musical play, "Spamalot," which opens on Broadway next month.

The cooking instructions are a hoot:
"Taketh thine SPAM slices and fry it thusly for exactly 2 minutes. No more, no less. 1 minute is too little, and yet 3 minutes be far longer than thou needeth. Then thou shalt flippeth the SPAM and repeateth these instructions until it be crispy and browned upon both sides of this most tasty provision. The resulting divine creation shalt be lobbed into thine mouth rapidly. For this is the law of SPAM Golden Honey Grail."

Somebody at Hormel is a big Python fan, eh?

Yes, this was announced a bit ago. I want a can (even though I hate spam) but they don't sell it here. But cool, eh?

[Lord Dalek]

I'm still waiting on the Lumberjack Song edition fireplace logs.

About time Hormel got a sense of humor. Remember that whole spam controversy with Muppet Treasure Island?

They'd sell a lot more Spam if they just outright admitted it's disgusting (although weirdly tasty.)
