“I can’t possible be the only old man who can remember when a can of Spam represented the best meal we’d had in weeks.”
No, you are not, there are at least two of us. I can also remember when cracklins (grattons for you Cajuns) and a baked sweet potato were a treat.
There are at least 3 of us. Spam, mustard, homemade wheat bread and a slice of garden onion was Sunday dinner for us once upon a time. I still like it.
