AUSTIN, Minn. -- The U.S. Department of Agriculture is recalling more than 228,000 pounds of Spam and another product made by Minnesota-based Hormel after four consumers complained about metal objects in the food. The USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service says the canned chicken and pork in question was produced in February at the company's plant in Fremont, Nebraska.
The agency said "minor oral injuries" were reported but said they received "no additional reports of injury or illness" from consumption of the products.
The recall covers 12-ounce metal cans containing "SPAM Classic" with a "Best By" date of February 2021 date. Those products were shipped throughout the U.S.
The production codes are F020881, F020882, F020883, F020884, F020885, F020886, F020887, F020888 and F020889.

3. QA is kind of sucky there, Hormel....
You processed 228K lbs of product before you noticed there was a problem with your equipment or that of one of your suppliers? Oh, that's right. You didn't notice it at all. I was your customers who figured it out when they chomped down on bits of metal.
Obviously the solution to Hormel's problem is to hire more genius DUmmies.

19. I used to think it was disgusting. <--- it is.
I've been caring for my mom who is really picky and can't chew well. She loves the stuff, because it's easy for her to eat and I've discovered it's not so bad - I make sure to buy the "lite" kind with less fat and (more importantly) less salt. It's a guilty pleasure like bacon. I actually want to try it in tiny cubes in a stir-fry like they show in the commercial.
Handy Hints from Heloise.

25. For what it is
Canned, processed meat by-product extruded into a block ... you could do worse, actually.
Yum Yum!

26. I think it works best treated as a flavoring like bacon. <---- need to get NJ Cher on this pronto!
If you don't have any ham it would probably be awesome cut into small cubes to flavor a pot of beans. And it would save you adding salt. Or saute slivers of it really crispy on top of macaroni or cheesy potatoes.
Every so often a food trend comes along that seems so crazy it just might be awesome. Right now, that buzzy ingredient is Spam. Yep, renowned chefs are incorporating the Hawaiian staple into fancy tasting menus alongside snootier foods. Since we’re all about getting in on a trend while it’s hot, we’ve compiled 12 mouthwatering ways to cook with the canned meat (which, for your information, is 90 percent pork shoulder and 10 percent ham).

21. Nooooooooo....
...on a lighter note. You have to cut it thin and fry it, otherwise you will not be able to get it down. Tastes good in a mustard and spam sandwich.
Sort of like eating mountain oysters!
Talk about something that tastes awful and has no redeaming value...

Getting rid of a ton of spam? Sounds my weekly purging of my email folders.
