    Definately Spam. Treet is the lower cost/lesser version.

    Dont get me wrong, I have a bunch of Treet in the SHTF food stash. (As well as Spam.)

    (But) All in all, I much prefer Spam. Cook some up sliced about 1/4" thick in a skillet every so often when I'm craving it.

    To all that turn up your nose at SPAM-  I worked with the construction industry in Hawaii for about 10 years- the blue collar- or no collar local folks.   The SPAM musubi with a bit of wasabi is the Hawaiian equal to a ham sammitch in your lunchbox.  We got the Hawaiians hooked on it in WW2- go into any 7-11 on the islands- there are SPAM sandwiches in the refrigerated section.  Throw in a cup of macaroni salad, bit of fresh mango, yeah, we're talking lunch time.  Stuff starts to grow on you.

    Spam has 2 ingredients, pork and salt.   The pork is cut from the hams, shoulders, and loins.  Treet has fillers.   Other than being salty spam isn't bad for you.

    The low sodium Spam is the best in my opinion. Regular Spam is just to salty for me.

      I did not eat my first steak until I was 18 
    up to then it was Kentucky steak  ( know as bologna  to most )   thought bologna and chipped ham were the only two lunch meats  in existent 
      oh cans of spam , treet , corned beef , potted meat,   or venina (sp )  sausage,  were a rate change of pace  . not very often but enough to where I still avoid them .

    I haven't seen Armor Treet in many years around here and thought they quit making it.  I also buy the lower sodium Spam and keep it stocked in case I run out of fresh cold cuts or bacon.  I can also eat Spam cold out of the can when I don't want to make a mess in the kitchen.  I was raised on that stuff!  

    A couple of other interesting tastes in the can I remember (but no longer partake) are Underwood Deviled Ham and that Potted Meat Food Product.  Both were basically "meat mush" and required an ample amount of mustard in order for me to get them down.

    While I much prefer Spam, if/when the SHTF - I am sure I will still appreciate the Treet I have stocked up. 😉

    I finally let my internist convince me I have a blood pressure issue. I try to watch the sodium levels and most canned food is full of it.  Never did care for Spam anyway.

    I buy Spam Lite singles, just enough for one sammich. Fried, with a dab of mayo and plenty of jalapeno rings. Also good with eggs, and you don't have 3/4 of a can of the stuff left over that you feel obligated to finish.

    What is this "Leftover," Spam you speak of? 🤔


    Thin sliced, browned in a skillet (slightly well done) Mmnnn............Mmnnn............... may have to bust some out today. It's been awhile. It stares at me when I open the cabinet. "When Ken? When? I'm here. Eat me."

    Sheeit, I can't get him to stop licking me/giving me kisses when I'm awake. Who knows what he does to me on the rare instances I am asleep. 😮


    Just kidding. I am such a light sleeper, if he is not curled up beside me, I usually hear him/aware of him if he quietly walks in to the room. Like this morning.

    How you healing up Brother? Doing good? Been thinking about you. (And) No, not in that W VA way.

    Bacon wrapped spam chunks on the grill ain't bad. Just add your favorite bbq sauce after the bacon crisps up a bit and eat them like candy. Bob

    Spam can be ground up and made into a pretty good meat salad.  Mayo, fine chopped onion, pickle relish.  

    Good for a spamwich or on a favorite cracker with favorite cheese!
