Canned Meat

I have this strange fascination with things that shouldn't be. Zombies, aliens and monkeys flinging poo.. I guess that is why, to some extent, canned meat intrigues me. Now, I know that meat in a can cannot be good for you, however that is why I believe I am drawn to it's air tight sealed power. There are so many different varieties of canned meat I don't know where to begin. The most popular canned meat, is of course SPAM. I mean how many cans of meat do you know that have made their way into the Smithsonian? I digress. Sticking to the overarching topic of canned meat is very challenging for me. I get excited when I think of the possibilities that can be captures here in my electronic pantry. Vienna Sausages, Spam, those huge ass tins of ham. I've even seen canned hamburgers. Delicious, not so much, interesting absolutely. Eating canned meat is like a looking at a train wreck. You know you shouldn't do it, but there is a part of you that cannot resist the temptation. I am so enthralled in this area that I could create posts on the top 10 canned meat products. Not necessarily by popularity.. maybe more by shock factor. Yes, I will have some of the standard, very well known cans of goodness, but I'm sure my research could turn up some very interesting semi-edible parishables.
