I actually like Underwood potted "roast beef" spread. We eat so little
of that stuff here it's used as stocking stuffers for Christmas as it's
considered to be a treat. ;-)

Dad adores Vienna sausages while I cannot stand them.

I'll always get spam instead of Treet.

Other stocking stuffers are things like canned smoked oysters etc.
Canned meats are EXPENsive!

Except for tuna.
