My father, at 93, still likes "Patum Peperium", not too sure what it is but it came in nice little jars, nowadays it's in plastic of course.

I think it's called that because you have to be potted before you can choke it down.

Way back before the Internet was such a huge deal, back in the BBS days- I posted a question to the BBS group that I was on. I challenged them to come up with a way to make Spam palatable for people who didn't ordinarily care for it- myself included.

The most effective way that came of it was to dice it and sauté it with onions. It seemed to neutralize the funny taste. It could then be rolled into an omelet with no ill effects. :-)
