    Had a fellow ask me a couple of years back - "What would you rather have - a 1 oz Krugerrand or the equivalent in SPAM! --

    Took me a while to do the math, didn't know if I had enough room for that much SPAM! at home...

    Well I was at CVS today and they had both SPAM and DAK on sale for 2 cans for $5.00 ($2.50 ea), but in WalMart SPAM sells for $2.63 and DAK for $4.97.

    I got 4 cans of DAK at CVS for my LTS.

    I am telling you guys, BACON SPAM is absolutely incredible. Strictly on a survival/prep level, it needs nothing -perfection!

    I am sitting on about 10 cases or so of regular Spam right now..... but that Bacon Spam is going to be added as well. I found a local source the other day that had six or so different varieties including the Bacon. Winning!!

    Test it before you store it. It might taste like rotten socks.

    But of course!!! Actually going to make some up with breakfast this Saturday. Nothing gets stored unless it fits the plan and taste buds. :)

    Problem is I don't like storing a partial can in the fridge ,so I eat the whole thing.
    It's like once you get started it's hard to stop .
    I try not to get started and reserve the spam I have stored for another time.
    Years ago they had provided a plastic lid for partial cans , wish that would come back again.
    I guess I could put the partially used can in a zip lock baggy .

    You can't eat gold!! I actually really enjoy SPAM and the various knockoffs. Got a couple of cases in my storage. I like to fry it up with a chili sauce of some kind.
