Heh heh. I hadn’t had spam since my mom made it 60 years ago. I made the mistake of telling the wife how good fried spam sandwiches were. Yeah she made them. Wish I would have Kept my mouth shut. Take a couple cans along as gifts though if you are going to the islands. They love the stuff and with pineapple.

I keep SPAM on hand. Just like White Castle, sometimes you just got to have it.

I had a class with a nearby White Castle. So for lunch I bought a couple. I ate one but threw the rest away. Up north here, I’d like to see every White Castle converted to a Waffle House.

Never tried a burger at a Waffle House, usually get the pork chop breakfast. Oddly, though Waffle Houses here are packed, many close.
