johanson Posted October 31, 2019 Report Share Posted October 31, 2019 Coincidentally, I just decided to go downstairs to get a 12 ounce can of Diet Coca Cola from the frig. I hope I am not offending anyone. And for those you who think that the artificial sugar is bad for you, it is. And the bugs that would normally bite me, can smell the aspartame on my breath and choose to bite humans that are not polluted with this poison. So I find this poison very helpful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted October 31, 2019 Report Share Posted October 31, 2019 Pete, the only offense one might take from your statement is the way you spell fridge. As for those who are proud to avoid cans of any type, well... all the more for us normal people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johanson Posted October 31, 2019 Report Share Posted October 31, 2019 Hey. What happened to Spell-check? Usually when I make a spelling error which is more often than I will admit, I am alerted by a red line under the misspelled word. I just went to "google search" and entered the word "frig". Boy does that word have some very bad meanings. Sorry about that . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattoleriver Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 I'd really like to avoid all those cans but, darn it, SPAM only comes in cans. Mmmmmmm, SPAM! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmh Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 ha ha, after the war , we received a bunch of ration from the US.. like raviolis with God knows what, some type of spam and other great Italian delicacies.. which means that it cured me of canned food for the ret of my life... I hated the stuff and would rather go without as a kid.. To this day I do not eat much canned food.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafterbr Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 During the Vietnam War spam and tabasco sauce was a meal for many of us. Although many now despise it, I still like it. Fried spam with eggs is not bad for breakfast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 Spam has seen a resurgence in popularity, thanks to the millennial's constant quest for nostalgia and memorabilia. Even local stores carry a few varieties. But honestly? Having tried it again, plain and fried, a few years ago, you'd HAVE to have hot sauce on it to make it edible. I do not order spam, spam, spam and eggs, or bacon, spam, eggs, spam and spam when I go out for breakfast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sem123 Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 haven't been on this page for a couple of days, interesting twist on my comment when I said "canned" I should have said "processed". At our stores back in Canada the aisles holding canned/processed food have been reduced …. canned soups, vegetables/fruit and things like beefaroni have been reduced, there use to be 30-40 types of Campbells soup and there now may be 15, there are more dried soups like Knorrs….. they take up a lot less space on the shelves. The huge growth that I see in packaged things is the plastic coffee pods .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
