Originally posted by tiptoetulipAfter seeing the Spamarama on the Food Network recently, I'd say you could use any number of sauces with your spam.
SPAM TOSSING CONTEST
Object: The team that can toss and catch SPAM the farthest without dropping it WINS.
Directions:
Partner teams in groups of two each.
Give each team a whole piece of RAW SPAM (with slime and all).
Line up each team 5 ft. apart from each other.
When you say GO!, each team will begin the toss.
As each team completes the toss, have them move farther apart (equally among each team)
Continue the toss.
Whichever team drops the SPAM on the ground is instantly DQ'd. Also, the SPAM cannot fall apart. It has to stay in a whole piece. If a player catches it and it breaks apart, that team will be DQ'd. Also, only BARE HANDS may be used to catch the SPAM.. NO shirts, gloves, etc.
The team that can toss and catch SPAM the farthest in one piece without dropping it WINS.
Of course, you can bend the rules, depending on the amount of participation and player competence.

I usally eat the Low Sodium Spam. Sometimes the Turkey Spam. As far as spam musubi, in most cases if I am at 7-11 buying something to eat I would add a spam musubi to the list, sometimes I go for a BBQ chicken musubi. I never tried Tulip.

Re: Spam tips, recipes, etc. (and spam musubi!)
It wasn't gourmet at all, it was too bland if anything. I guess I should also say that I have tried sushi too and don't see what the big whoop is.
And the grill was just opened by an old guy who just arrived here from Hawaii. His family works the restaurant while he hangs around all day to talk with other islanders who come in, and believe me, there are a lot of them in Western Washington.
Their plate lunch is fine and the kalua pig is great there too. I think I'll have them cater a dinner at our church. But hold the musubi.

Originally posted by tiptoetulipTiptoetulip has not tried Tulip yet. There were some radio ads awhile back with people raving about it. But I don't think I had cared for Bacon Spam...is it like that?
I haven't tried all the flavors of Spam, so I don't know if "Bacon Spam" is close to Tulip, but I doubt it. I imagine "Bacon Spam" really tries to set apart the flavor of bacon. The flavor in Tulip is much more nuanced. Richer. I'd say if you were making a spam musubi with Tulip, you'd probably have to adjust your marinade to adjust for it.
Originally posted by LalalinderI just don't get it. The Spam musubi thing.
Still, I doubt I'll be the last person to tell you, if your first and only spam musubi was from some place on the mainland, you haven't really had one. In fact, I bet they attempted to "gourmet" it up a bit (as if gourmet is a verb, but anyway) -- which is usually a bad idea for any local staple.

All this spam talk has made me think of Spam Katsu Musubi, from 7-11. There was a time when I just loved eating those, but then I got tired of the rice, because there was just too much of it. But my short lived affair gave me much satisfaction! I couldn't find a pic of the 7-11 kine, but I found this pic here, of Spam Katsu Curry, from Sumo Ramen & Curry. It has me salivating...and I just made curry last night (with lots of fukujinzuke)!

Re: Spam tips, recipes, etc. (and spam musubi!)
I like Spam once in awhile, and tried the musubi at the grill in my neighborhood here in Fed Way, WA. It was terrible. Not their fault I'm sure, I just don't like it. And to press the point further.....I just don't get it. The Spam musubi thing.
Also, I have tried to find out why salmon is so beloved in the Islands. I don't get that either, since it is not an idigenous fish.
Please forgive my ignorance.
