SPAM: Not an Enemy

Since the first time I met my friend Sara, who happens to live where the Spam Museum is located, along with the Hormel plant I knew I wanted to visit one day. Well that day has come and gone and I was able to visit. And I enjoyed it.

The Wall of Spam

The museum was a look at not just spam but George Hormel and the history of his life and really how he transformed the packaged food industry. It was very informative and fun as well. There were no free samples but we did pick up some Spam to take home with us and then last week cooked it up with some mac and cheese. Yummy!

So I have to say, after my visit, I feel well informed and and not so scared of Spam anymore. Not that I will be consuming it on a regular basis, but it's good to know what it is and how it is made. And any time I think of Spam I think of Sara and Monty Python. Not only do they have a hit broadway show that I love called SPAMALOT, but they also have a skit about Spam that is showcased at the Spam museum and which I have linked for you here. Enjoy and give it a chance!
