On the Spam debate, I personally don't like it, but I don't dislike it any more than I dislike potted meat. I'm not sure what might be in potted meat, but some people love it. I have an aunt that used to serve Spam for dinner for company. She would called it a Ham dinner and she would take the Spam and cut it up in slices like a ham.
I also remember a girl I was in school with that was fixing sandwiches or something like that for her parent's company. She was using either potted meat or spam one. She ran out and just made the rest from her dog's food. Nobody ever mentioned it.
