SPAM Figgy Pudding, 12 Ounce Can (Pack of 2)

Figgy Pudding Spam! The name alone prompts laughter, the balm of the soul. After years of idle curiosity, I was finally driven to look up "figgy pudding." Turns out "figgy" is Old Brit for candied fruit, and while Americans think "pudding" is a milk-based sweet treat, Brits think it's better bread-based: Figgy pudding is apparently something like fruitcake batter that's been steamed, not baked. Hm. As one of the few Americans willing to admit a love of (reasonably fresh) fruitcake, this sounds interesting. Much of the point of Figgy Pudding Spam being it's prima facie absurdity, it's a bit of an anticlimax to report that it's not bad, presenting mild clove with a hint of ginger beneath the "flavor" of Spam. I recommend pan-frying 1/4-inch slices in a dry skillet over medium heat to a crisp dark brown; serve hot and enjoy, laughing all the way! Ho Ho Ho!

I was afraid of the figgy pudding spam but after trying it, I found it to be a winner, and very tasty. I would definitely order more if it was available.
