I can remember as a kid having fried spam with pinapple, spam salad, spam sandwiches, etc.
Then there is of course the famous spam lamb as prepared on the TV show MASH.

My DEAR master Phil ... don't be such a pill to date me thus. I'm trying to feel young again!!!
Alas ... I am someone who recalls these FUDS ...
Yep ... in the 50's we had SPAM ... I'm sure ... but I mostly remember eating KLIK (spelling???) ...SPAM/KLIK ... same thing only different?
To this day I have scars on my foot from having stepped (was running actually) on a KLIK can, sharp sides up ... impressive amount of blood can come out of a 4/5 year olds foot.
SPAM ... hmmm ... it would be fun to see the army recipes ...
Side note regards BOLOGNA .... fried up it's call "WINNIPEG STEAK" sumthin to go with the CHEEZ WHIZ???
I ate lots of WINNIPEG STEAK as a kid! YUK ... but funny how every once in a while I CRAVE THE CRAP ...
BTW .... WHAT EXACTLY was included in the typical WW2 rations? Sounds like SPAM for one, and CORNED BEEF for the Bully Stew for sure ... but what else?
