I don't eat tuna-noodle casserole, but I was happy to discover that the store-brand mayo is just as good as Hellman's and half the price. Cindy Hamilton |

Bad analogy. I don't like Spam. You'd have done better with margarine and butter. Cindy Hamilton |

I like Hormel's chili better. I guess you're supposed to put grated Monterey Jack and diced jalapeño peppers. Yet, slow grilling burgers over Mesquite & charcoal and then dicing the meat itself would end-up making better chili, I'd say.

It was introduced by US troops 70 years ago, and now it is a national cultural fetish. Spam is even gussied up and given as an expensive gift for holidays, etc...lots on Goog about it... In FACT I myself am going to put a Spam sammich on my menu for tomorrow's lunch - on nice white bread with American cheeze and Hellman's and some iceberg lettuce... As for Treet, it DOES really suck... -- Best Greg |

I use so little mayo I definitely cannot be bothered to whip eggs with oil to make it from scratch. A small jar of whatever brand lasts for at least a year in my fridge. I don't make tuna noodle casserole so no "great news" in terms of the price of egg noodles, either. Jill |

Soybean oil, water, whole eggs and egg yolks, vinegar, salt, sugar, lemon juice, calcium disodium edta (used to protect quality), natural flavors. I'm hoping the "natural flavors" are ground-up bug parts or rat turds or similar. Cindy Hamilton |

I don't like Spam. > Hawai'i seems to be the only place left that likes Spam (once the darling of Hormel) It's very popular in Guam, the Philippines, South Korea, and other places. I guess the important part is how it's doing in the United States. If Spam musubi gets popular with the kids on the mainland, Spam could explode. Now if the Chinese could get a taste for Spam, it's game over, man! My wife used to help her mom pack cans of Spam as gifts for relatives in Korea. This, is completely normal behavior in Korea. It's considered worthy of gift giving over there. https://static01.nyt.com/images/2014...y=90&auto=webp |

Canned meats are a thing in Samoa but mostly, they have a thing for canned corned beef and canned albacore - they call it "wahoo." |

I bought it at about 75% off, rode it around town, which was awfully fun, then sold it at a profit. The little wooden sided wagon isn't little. It's for gardening, and has a 330 lb. capacity.

I have made mayo a couple times when I had run out of store bought. It always turned out nicely and was superior to home made, but I ended up throwing most of it out because we just don't use much mayo. |

When you make mayo yourself, it always turns out better than home made mayo. Are you saying you always make it at someone else's place? |

My guess is that it's a safe bet that you won't be meeting up with another tainted chili dog in your lifetime. That should be good news. I'm having an old Hawaiian style lunch today: Frito Pie. It's delicious! Unfortunately, I made the classic rookie mistake of not breaking up the chips before adding the canned chili. Don't let anyone tell you that a Frito Pie is duck soup to make. https://photos.app.goo.gl/L5iXUXwW5AS2AUGA9 |

I have to admit that it actually tasted pretty good when I ate it. It wasn't until about 4 hours later that I started to feel sick. I left work a little early, drove directly home, ran down the hall to the bathroom and almost didn't make it to the toilet and then spent the next 5 hours in regurgitation hell. That's an experience you don't easily forget. |

You're right. Chances are pretty good that I ill never again come across another tainted chili dog. Chances are even better if I never even eat one If you ever end up puking and retching for 5 hours straight you will understand why I have no interest in eating another one. I'm having an old Hawaiian style lunch today: Frito Pie. It's > delicious! Unfortunately, I made the classic rookie mistake of not > breaking up the chips before adding the canned chili. Don't let > anyone tell you that a Frito Pie is duck soup to make. I have had canned chili. I bought it once and I learned from my experience. Besides, I am on a low sodium diet these days so prepared foods are out, especially canned. |
