Spam Grasshopper and Grub mix in the New World Order

The one-two punch of inflation and rising crime has caused at least one New York City store to lock up its inventory of Spam in a plastic case.
Shoppers, store employees, and social media users expressed disbelief after discovering the $3.99 canned meat product out of reach behind lock and key at a Duane Reade inside New York City’s Port Authority bus depot, the New York Post reported.
"I’ve never seen that before!" one cashier laughed while removing the Spam from its plastic anti-theft covering.
"Some of these things are pretty ridiculous," said Jenny Kenny, a 43-year-old visiting town from Kentucky who says she was aware of the crime spike in the city but still couldn’t believe there were "so many" items in boxes.
Other shoppers wondered why Spam, along with $1.89 cans of Starkist tuna, were locked up while more expensive products like $5.49 cans of Amy’s soup were not.
"To put Spam in a cage is stupid — and kind of insulting to the customers that would buy it," 46-year-old shopper Dennis Snow said.
Crime in New York City is up this year in six of seven major categories and the New York Post reported that petty larceny complaints are up 52% in the precinct where the Port Authority is located compared to last year.

What we value.
Book Detroit Then and Now shows an old photo of the Detroit skyline with 6 church spires towering over other buildings. All were replaced in early 1900s. Every town in America used to have churches on top viewed as anyone approached from the distance.
I read somewhere that people’s tallest architecture reveals their spiritual and other values. Egyptian obelisks and pyramids, Europe’s cathedrals, then Eiffel Tower and all the US and other skyscrapers showing money and business valued) with Arabs today trying to make taller buildings than Americans on purpose).
So Spam is now locked up like shaving items and printer toner.
Should entomb Twinkies with it.
Makes it hard for the “ladies” to jamb one up her........
Jewelry, I mean Spam, in photo....
Remember Edward G. Robinson and Charlton Heston being shown the scrappy looking beef steaks hidden in a store in Soylent Green? Incredibly valuable like the food in the farms guarded by the military.
But I don’t like spam!!!
Shouldn’t have taken 24 posts. FR is slipping…
At some Walmarts, soon there will be more things under lock & key than aren’t.
I like SPAM as well...
Slice it, fry it, put on a bun with some mustard...Mmmmm
Yep, I’m a hillbilly :-)
Spam under glass…
What do you advise such that we don’t have to put up with it? Become thieves? Get higher paying jobs? Stick pins in Joe Biden dolls?
Do you ever use Tide detergent?
Spam and eggs, love it
They don’t need to lock it away from me. I do not consider Spam to be food. Blech. But I know people like it,, so good that they actually can’t steal it.
Spam Grasshopper and Grub mix in the New World Order
New “collector series” case!
Cuz if the Hormel Spam has to be locked up, that's the new RNC Campaign ads for the midterms. The Spam Voter index. The democrats are in real trouble at $6 Spam, $30 baby milk formula, $5 gasoline, 40% increased utility bills, and jab #6, and #7.
Pitchforks and torches pretty soon. And not the BLM ANTIFA ones supplied by the DOJ operatives either.
Okay, Spam is on my bucket list. Those new commercials make me hungry!
Leave NYC.
That’s a display case!
