For vintage package collectors... - Ron - 05-07-2007 In the market today there was this HUGE Spam display. Would you believe, it's Spam's 70th anniversary?! Anwyay, they will have three collector's issue cans. The first one is kind of neat, if any of you collect vintage food packaging.

NO offence/offense intended--- Re: For vintage package collectors... - Ron - 05-07-2007 Quote:I used to live in southern Minnesota 32 miles from the Hormel plant. A guy I went to high school with wound up working there (result of not paying attention in class). When I asked him what was in it he said "You don't want to know! Re: For vintage package collectors... - bjcotton - 05-07-2007 Actually, we eat fried spam for breakfast or an occasional sandwich...even knowing what's in it. Now, it has about priced itself out of the market...almost $3 a can. Re: For vintage package collectors... - Ron - 05-07-2007 Quote: That's pretty expensive for mystery meat. Here it's $1.98 and I usally can scrounge a 50 cent off coupon. Re: For vintage package collectors... - Roxanne 21 - 05-07-2007 UGH!!!! My point--- Re: For vintage package collectors... - Mare749 - 05-07-2007 I don't want to know what's in it! We like it too! It's not something that I use regularly but we like to fry it nice and crisp, top with melty cheese and serve it on squishy white bread. Also like to dice it up, brown it in a skillet to use in an omelet. Guess you can tell I'm a child of the 50's.?? Mom used to let us have a glass of chocolate milk with it, too! Kind of odd how almost no one was overweight either. Ron, I bought one of those collector's tins recently, I think it may have been from Walmart. Priced at about $1.98, I think. Didn't save it though, I don't really collect anything. (oops, except kitchen gadgets!) Maryann Re: For vintage package collectors... - Roxanne 21 - 05-07-2007 WHAT!!!!!!!!!! ??????? NO WAY!!!! I can't believe that is still on the market (shelves). Re: For vintage package collectors... - Roxanne 21 - 05-07-2007 Guess I'm on another planet- SORRY, Y'ALL!!!
