Can I have sausage, egg, beans, spam and spam?

**some people just don’t get that SPAM can be a good thing…
not that I eat it anymore, but I was raised on grilled SPAM and sliced American cheese (in the seran wrap) sandwiches (throw on a tomato from the garden)…
mmmmmmmmmmmm, SPAM

Mmmmm…
grilled SPAM and sliced American cheese… that explains the total absense of hair in you head
everybody knows that spam is not meat just as american cheese is not cheese 
I guess if you can eat a hot dog spam isn’t to far off. has anybody had a hot dog pizza. Or white trash suprise?

I substitute sliced Tillamook cheddar for the American cheese and when they’re in season I add a nice slice of Walla Walla or Vidalia onion, and season with a couple of shakes of Tony’s. :beam:
To the problem with vegitarian lasagna…
I think it’s eggplant.
Eggplant to me has always tasted the way fresh dark dirt smells. Old an earthy. Does anyone else feel this way about eggplant?
abzoid??? You’re 43?
Sorry you didn’t get the official old foggies welcome. There are only a small manority of us here at kirupa who are over 30, so I like to offer a special welcome to those who are, and offer instant membership into the Kirupa Old Farts Foundation, or KOFF for short.
We’d hold weekly meetings but between the physical therapy and basket weaving most of us forget to attend.
(yeah, I know I’m young to you at 32, but hey, I had to make the marker somewhere. Most of these kids are teens so I figure 30 and above as ‘overTheHill’ is probebly pretty reasonable.

I have tried eggplant in almost every way possible…
I think someone lost a bet, and had to eat one once… then he was just too stubborn to admit it tasted like a bad mushroom that sat in the crisper too long…

hi David,
Yup, I was born during the Eisenhower administration. My Comp Sci degree dates 10 years prior to the creation of the World Wide Web. I’m honored to be a new member of such an exclusive group as KOFF.
As for eggplant, it tastes like whatever you cook with it. It’s essentially a just a sponge for sauce. I enjoy a well made eggplant parmigiana, but it’s only as good as the ingredirents. Quality basalmic vinegar, fresh garlic, fresh mozzarella, Reggiano Parmesan, and a hardy tomato sauce.
Same could be said about fruit cake.

At least fruitcake gets soaked in rum before it is given away as food…
Who in the world walks along, sees a purple alien looking vegetable, and says, hmmmmm, I wonder what this tastes like?
Then actually try it again…
people eat haggis too…

I´m not a senior kirupian myself, but i´m above the average age (26), and sometimes i feel old here, and (more than) sometimes i play along
you´re right, eggplant parmeggiana rox!
have you ever ate eggplant picles? it´s good!
well spiced stuffed eggplant (i think that´s the name), with meat, tomatoes and cheese… hmmm :+)
david: you´re right too. alone, eggplant, taste like moistered dirt.
Hey rev: don´t you think that fruit cakes and liquored candies are the best way to turn inocent children in alcoholic adults?

Look, I’m getting worried enough about hitting the quarter century this year. Don’t even <i>talk</i> to me about thirty. :sure:
And what is this ‘eggplant’ you’re talking about? Is this an American thing that I’ve never heard of?
=)
Oh right, you mean an aubergine… 
Its an aubergine, we brits have to stick together :bounce: Right Kit?
- Soul :goatee:
Solidarity, brother.
No wonder I had no idea what ‘eggplant’ was. Sounds nothing like aubergine…
:cyborg:
More to the point what does it ahve to do with eggs??
- Soul :goatee:
Good point.
Any of you Americans want to explain this one? :phil:
weird name (-:
'splain? naw, that would imply we had a good answer. 
and what about grapefruit? They aren’t purple and make lousy wine.
Two cultures separated by a common language.
