Spam - The Affordable Meat?

Interesting story in the New York Times today about Hormel Foods and SPAM - business is booming as families in the US look for alternatives to fresh meat in an attempt to save money. I wrote a post on SPAM a while back and mentioned how I would never eat it, and I want to assure my readers that nothing has changed, despite the looming economy. There will be no SPAM recipes on my luau menus (or any other menu for that matter) - sorry!
