SPAM

Yeah...the potted meat +1.

Vienna sausages plain with crakers or day old bread is a treat......especially compared to green eggs in a can (C-rats).

Love poodle peckers! lol… especially when slathered in ketchup!

The only thing better is potted meat on a saltine cracker!

LOL....Never heard Vienna sausages called " poodle pickers" .

You can keep the ketchup. Tabasco sauce maybe....or not.

IMO....Potted meat....Yuck! A mini can of bottom of the self dog food. Last resort to being hungry after 3 days in "Hell on Earth".)

Spam kept us fed during "snowmaggedon" a couple of years ago. It was one of my favorites growing up, too.

How about some Devil Ham on crackers, white toast or some Cuban Bread.

LOL......Can't blame you. Seriously you should at least give it a taste....just out of curiosity. Have it fried, paired with fried potatoes, and fried eggs over easy, and buttered toast for a breakfast meal....any time of day.

SOS (aka Shit On a Shingle): to properly correct your dad, meaning no offense...is hamburger in white gravy on burnt toast.....and is rather good if the toast isn't burnt.

Can't fault your mom as any "food" eaten regularly turns one off what at first was better than nothing when you're hungry. ie. like eating steak 3 times a day for several days and a plain bologna sandwich becomes a delicious treat.

My understanding is that proper SOS was a wwii army meal made with chipped beef.

Ok......But still dog food.....in a single serving can.

Yes!.....However, by the (19)70's the chopped beef (dried beef, not jerky) was replaced by hamburger. And it is still quite tasty. I love it! (So does my step-dad, a retired Air Force, Vietnam Vet) and prepare it, although rarely, for naustalgia reasons......IYKYK....

Spam and eggs is a great meal in a rainy moose camp.
I think the big reason it's so popular here, Guam and Hawaii is that it traveled well on non-refrigerated cargo ships back in the day.
